    Athlon Optics. Finaly we have more scope options. Including close focus and FFP.

    Thanks guys, good point. I know I always want more once I have it. But it's for an impact, 680g to 913grams seems like a big jump from what I have on it at the moment. Anyone else using the 34x on the impact? I mainly just shoot paper but still like to shoulder the rifle for practise.

    Athlon Optics. Finaly we have more scope options. Including close focus and FFP.

    Quick question for anyone with both the 6-24 and 8-36.. If you set both scopes to 24x power, are the reticules the same size / thickness? I have a primary arms 4-14 FFP, but the reticle becomes too thick at full power. So my theory was if the 6-24 became too thick at 24, I could buy the 8-36...

    WHICH CHRONOGRAPH DO YOU USE FOR AIR GUN

    I have a Chrony F1 Green. Cheap and Simple, does seem a little sensitive to shooting angle though. I don't have one, but love the look of the Magneto speed V3. Attaches to muzzle so you can get distracted mid string and shoot different targets and still get consistent results.

    FX Impact regulator question

    I'm also interested in this. For anyone who has had this gun apart and understands the inner working... When wanting a lower power setting what is the preferred method? -Does screwing in the valve screw start wearing the valve stop with the hammer wacking it prematurely? -Can decreasing the...

    FX Impact Default Regulator Setting?

    Thanks, Looks great. Might just buy a 1/8" Male BSP to 1/8" Male BSP adapter and attach my filling hose on my scuba bottle and then read the reg pressure off my fill adapters Wika gauge. Should work, saves buying more bits for the time being. Cheers

    FX Impact Default Regulator Setting?

    Has anyone fitted a Wika or other oversize gauge yet? I imagine it would make reg adjustments a lot easier.

    Help !! Fx monsoon

    Try cocking it before you fill it. The hammer may be resting on the valve and holding it open as you are trying to fill from empty. Edit: Jumped to conclusion before reading your whole post. The above probably doesn't apply to you if you are shooting it. Try to work out where the leak is...

    FX Impact with FX Wildcat shroud

    Looks good! Glad it worked out. Does the barrel + shroud fit in the case?

    FX Impact LDC/Moderator Options?

    Hey Verve. You're thinking along the same lines as me so it's good to have someone to bounce ideas off. Do you have a US .22 Wildcat with the shorter shroud or the 345mm one? Unless you have measured and know more than me, the only thing I can see as an issue is that the D11 + D12 Muzzle and...

    FX Impact LDC/Moderator Options?

    
Can't you just have the shroud stop before the valve knob? I re-watched Ted's video and noticed that he's shroud sit's forward 3cm or so. (Hardly noticeable) I'd be interested to hear whether the small increase in ID + Less parts taking up volume + a cone shaped end cap makes any difference...

    FX Impact LDC/Moderator Options?

    Another option is ordering the parts of a .25 impact shroud and put them on a .22 barrel. That would be pretty sweet. If someone has both they should give it a try. Without the full schematics for the rifle it's hard to tell if there are any hidden differences.

    FX Impact LDC/Moderator Options?

    
Great post. Interesting about the valve knob, how much smaller would the knob need to be? Would a 28mm shroud fit into one of the groves of the knob, preventing it from being adjusted with the shroud on but could probably live with that? EDIT: Disregard, found some photos showing the overlap...

    Regulated Fx Monsoon .22

    Hi All. Thought I would share my experience of installed a Robert Lane regulator in my FX Monsoon .22 Purchased 2nd hand a few weeks ago, the shot string when I got it gave me the following. Shots - Mean - STD - ES 220bar Fill 1-12 854 14.35 47 1-24 863 14.32 50 1-36 ...

    What spare parts do you keep on hand?

    Hi all, What spare parts does everyone keep on hand for their airguns? So far all I've had to replace is a breech oring in the mrod and a pellet prob and bolt on the monsoon. Everything else I order / replace are apparantly 'upgrades', but I hate waiting when things go wrong so would like to...

    .22 Wildcat - which moderator?

    Does anyone know if there is a stackable moderator available for the non US wildcat? Looking at the parts diagrams, it appears the US one has a shorter shroud, and the muzzle (Part D11) has an external male thread. Whereas the non US has a longer shroud and extra parts that create a female...

    Impact with fixed shroud

    Would love to know about the shroud in Teds review video. But in the meantime I've looked into the wildcat shroud. Thanks to the thread fe7565 just linked to it seems the Impact has the same barrel OD of 14mm as most (all?) of the other fx rifles aswell as the 1/2" threaded end. So my theory is...

    Impact with fixed shroud

    Also want to know. Have been wondering if a wildcat shroud would fit, does the impact have the same barrel OD as a Wildcat? Also does anyone know the length of the impact stock shroud when retracted and extended?
