    FX STX Super light weight 700mm barrel on a FX Crown Question!

    I’m thinking about buying one for my Gen 2 .30 cal FX Crown to see if I can increase the speed of the pellets... in theory it’s a simple way to increase speed and then tune down to get the most accuracy. A couple of questions though that I haven’t seen answered : 1. If I’m sticking to the...

    FX Hybrid Slugs

    Has anyone shot them out of a Daystate yet? This weekend I want to test them out of my Airwolf... Also, has there been any word yet on when the other caliber slugs are coming out?

    .25 vrs .30 for pesting

    So currently I own the FX Crown with the .30 caliber barrel. Here are my thoughts in no particular order as it relates to the .30: 1. I live on a fairly exposed hill... there is ALWAYS wind... it is rarely dead calm... as a result I have gone towards .25 and .30 to buck the wind better. I...

    Your Favorite FX Crown Settings and Ammo Combo

    Pretty much mirror above: .30cal maxed out hammer and reg is set at 150bar... 870-880 with 44.75 jsbs. At 50 yards, the 5 shot group is well under 3/8ths. Experimented with 50gr jsbs but they weren’t as accurate at 50 and 100yards. Gonna try polymags and the FX boss pellets soon.

    Do you think I messed up my Crown? :(

    Probably not if you only did it once... just don’t do it again and you’ll be fine... I did it by mistake one time... My Crown shoots just fine... if you want to make sure... Chony the different power levels and see... If it’s shooting well, then it’s fine... READ THE MANUAL... you’ll save...

    Guys please take a look at my Crowns setting and gauges

    CP1, Good question... the reg pressure sounds about right out of the box... you can always adjust it. I’m gonna assume you have a new Crown that contains the AMP regulator in it... check the serial number on your gun... if you’re over (roughly) 181,000 on the serial number you have an AMP...

    Air-Fective Shroud for FX Crown

    https://air-fectivetuning.co.uk/online-shop?olsPage=products%2Ffx-crown-2-stage-shroud&page=3 Has anyone tried one of these in the US? Is it worth buying? Seems like a interesting alternative to putting an adaptor and a Donny on the end of your Crown.

    What size pellets were you shooting in .30 and .25? Also... nice shooting considering the conditions.

    Huggett shroud coming tomarrow

    If Huggett or Donny made a full length fixed shroud for the Crown in different calibers I’d buy it right now. I don’t mind fixing the shroud and putting a Donny on the end with an adaptor but a full fixed shroud would be an upgrade IMO.

    700mm impact barrel on the Crown

    Is it possible? I remember a couple of years ago people said all you would need to do is change out the shroud but are they actually interchangeable? Has anyone actually done it? I’m thinking about trying it with my FX Crown .30 to see if I can gain more power and accuracy.

    FX Crown .22 or .25 ?

    So this is coming from someone who owns the Crown in .30... I’d get the .25...good enough shot count, very forgiving compared to .22 in terms of shot placement and is MORE than enough power out to 100+ yards. From what I’ve seen most people don’t have a 100+ yard range in their back yard so .25...

    Thoughts on electronic PCPs?

    I own a 2016 Airwolf MCT in .22. In almost 3 years I have never had a problem with the gun... all I do is charge is every so often and the thing keeps right on chugging. As far as reliability, I have taken my Airwolf out in Northeast snow storms and and the electronics haven’t failed me once...

    FFP VS SFP

    I also have a Hawke FFP 5-25x. I really like the scope... the lack of having to figure out where you’re pellet is going to hit just cause you changed the magnification is nice in my opinion. That being said, at 25x the cross hair is WAY too thick... luckily I never shoot on 25x... I usually...
