    177 fastest most accurate

    My Beeman RX-2 shooting JSB 13.43 gr Monsters at around 940fps is accurate and hits hard for what it is. Not my go to .177 for under 25 yards due to over-penetration with that pellet on anything squirrel size or smaller. Is respected (by me) on any rodent sized (and up) vermin well beyond 25...

    Up Date: What did I do wrong

    Mine (stock reg) had 14 washers. Two of which were approx .011" thick, the rest (other 12) were roughly .014" My Huma reg came with an assortment which were "supposedly" two different strengths or colors (green and yellow or "A" and "B")... Unfortunately one variant (baggie) supplied by...

    FX "X" Barrel Defect

    Please understand, by "Defect" I mean their manufacturing process produced late-stage detractors that marred previous sublime refinements.

    FX Impact Leak

    Post action report; Installed the Huma reg along with new 9x1.5 o-ring and the leak is gone. Holds pressure very well and recovers to reg setting much faster, with far less upward pressure creep even after several days. Does creep about 1/2 bar at or around 250 bottle pressure if left to...

    FX "X" Barrel Defect

    I've re-barrelled countless airguns and firearms for various reasons, more often than not being able to detect the deficiency of the abandoned barrel. Sometimes it is a glaring defect, other times the inadequacy is nearly imperceptible... often mysterious. In MANY cases the barrel is...

    FX Impact "Clunk" Sound when tilting up/down normal?

    JCD thank you !! Just adjusted the power wheel from MIN back up to MAX, cocked the airgun and observed a much more abbreviated transition time between clunks when tilting, meaning your explanation explains what I'm hearing.

    FX Impact "Clunk" Sound when tilting up/down normal?

    When the airgun is tilted up or down from horizontal, a "clunking" sound occurs in the general vicinity of where the bottle threads in, or slightly aft. This happens whether it is cocked or not, with the bottle aired up and gun otherwise in working order. Only mod to gun is Huma reg set to...

    Bionic .25 cal Webley Patriot/Beeman Kodiak

    Gary I was in New Mexico from December 23rd until yesterday... nearly 3 months helping mom move into her new house after dad's passing. Have some catching up to do now that I'm back home, but this project is still on the bench and itching to resume progress. More to follow as able Ed

    FX Impact Leak

    No danger of that... I'm too lazy to pump past the recommended setting 😆

    FX Impact Leak

    Ahh yesss... wondered about that !! I did notice an audible leak when pumping from zero pressure up to around 100 bar, then there was a sudden change in the loud hiss followed by a mellow "pop" seating sound. After that the leak was NOT audible without using the surgical-tube hearing doo-hickey...

    FX Impact Leak

    Quite some time ago I noticed this gun was leaking air. Had only pumped it up and shot her a few times since new, and got tired of having to do double duty with the Hill pump just to replace the air that wouldn't stay put... which is a relatively quick leak. Today I pumped it up and tried a tip...

    PCP Hold

    Noticed in my FX Indy, as the pressure and velocity drops, the point of impact at 25 yards will rise. Guessing it's because the muzzle has slightly more time to climb whilst the projectile is dilly-dallying on its journey. Also noticed that shift is lessened if I'm holding the gun down firmly on...

    Those pesky .30 cal Impact X barrel liner O-rings...now fantastic groups.

    This review pushed me over the edge... Just ordered the 700mm .30 cal "X' barrel, two high cap mags, and side shot camera mount with 30mm and 1" adapters. If you never hear from me again.... my wife saw the massive bank account balance decrease

    Knock-off PCP magazines?

    Most mainline PCP mags have the same design DNA. At some point they stopped being knock-offs, and became variations. Variations of the same thing wind up coming from an increasing variety of sources.... “Et al.”
