Quick question please, are there any rear focus scopes other than SWFA? I have some back troubles, so this feature would be a big ergonomic plus for me, especially with my springer. The swfa looks great, except I'd prefer a x-mas tree type, mil-dot reticle. thanks

I'm having a hard time deciding between a Dreampup or an Impact mk2. Adjustable power & the Xliner barrel are must haves, so not considering a Wildcat or other brands. At the moment I can't think of a need for more than 50 fpe, but I may be moving soon, & it's nice to have the option for more...

Has anyone tried firing pellets thru a liner that's intended for slugs? Obviously the twist rate & choking would be all wrong for pellets, but im curious if pellets could achieve acceptable groups at short/med distances. why? I'm intrigued by the idea of having 2 mags in your pocket. One mag...

I came across this photo, I sure hope FX sees it and thinks about making this carbine version! I'd probably buy 2 DLs, one normal size & one carbine. Leshiy killer? [S]

If you're interested, please send me your phone # & a few pics of your .177 Ranchero pistol (synthetic stock or carbine, I'm not really interested in spending extra for the walnut pistol stock, & I'm not interested in a .22).Also, I have a LW regulated P-rod for trade if you'd like some extra...

Im a bit confused. So the TwistX allows barrel inserts to optimise the twist & choke for a certain pellet/slug. But every projectile will have a different ideal velocity for accuracy. So if you change the barrel liner, won't you want to tweak the reg or hammer spring like one can do on the...

I would not want to take a shot at a critter unless I would feel confident it's a humane one (brain or heart/lung). For those of you who've tried a semi-auto with a flock of pests, like pigeons, starlings, rats... Did you find that you had enough time to line up on critter #2 & get a humane shot...

Have yous seen Matt Dubber's video on the Huben K1 semi-auto? I thought the most interesting part was not about the rifle, but what he said about the slugs- more energy on target than .25 pellets, more mass for better wind resistance, longer range capabilities due to much better slug BCs. What...

I'd like to both shorten the barrel & reduce the power of a pcp. However I don't want to waste air, ie. I think it would be bad if the pellet left the barrel while the valve was still open. Can I simply reduce the hammer spring tension, causing the valve to close quicker? I saw Ted's video on...

Tominco I hope you don't mind if I use your term for a Wildcat with adjustable power. I recall the Royale did not have this feature in the beginning, but it was added a few years later. If you're familiar with the inner workings of FX's adjustable power & the Wildcat, do you think this is a...

this year the Shot Show is in Vegas Jan 23-26, IWA is March 9-12 in Nurnberg

Hi I'm trying to decide between a .25 Fx Impact or Wildcat. What I like most about the Impact is the higher shot capacity, & ability to swap bottles on the go. I wouldn't swap calibers or use any of the adjustments, I already have a power adjuster on my other .22 rifle. My only concern is the...

Hi, if you have an Impact, can you tell me how you are shooting it in the sitting position? Is there enough room to use shooting sticks even when a bipod is mounted? Or do you just rest the bipod on your knee (or arm+knee)? Or do you find it better to remove the bipod for sitting shots?

I'm in the market for a really short .177 carbine that has adjustable power, & would like to buy a Ranchero, but the design is somewhat dated, & I'm baffled that it costs $700 more than the streamline (with similiar features), & costs more than the brand new walnut Wildcat that includes a...

I was planning on buying one when it was introduced, but decided to wait until the bugs were worked out. & since I saw many 'problem' threads, I probably waited an extra year. But what about the new Twist X barrel, can a TwistX Barrel be retrofitted to a current Impact once they're available, or...

When the rifle was introduced, I thought, cool I can choose the barrel based on the desired caliber of the current situation. But now I'm wondering if i'd keep it dialed in to .25 & pick up another rifle if I want to shoot .22. How have you been using yours?

I just ordered a MTC Viper Pro, mainly to forgo having to look up holdover on a mild-dot chart. So a part of me thinks, "yay, one less hassle", but another part of me is a bit sad because it seems like know-how is going to be forgotten. It seems like shooting will become more like video-games...

The PCP world has proven that there's a huge appeal for BPs, why are springer makers so blind? I guess it would have to be a side-lever, barrel above the spring cylinder, but that wouldn't bother me. If Frederik Axelson (FX) would design one of his awesome triggers for AA, Weihrauch, or Diana, I...

I'd like to replace my Prod with the Ataman AP16 pistol, but I am bit apprehensive about it's ultra high pressure cylinder (4350 psi). Do yous think that the higher the pressure, the higher the risk? Or is risk more of a function of the quality of the tubing? Perhaps this is safer then a 3k psi...

I saw a used Impact for sale on another forum, and the seller claimed that the accuracy on low & medium power levels was mediocre. Have any of you .22 Impact owners done any accuracy testing on low and medium power levels? If so, what have been your results? I'm planning on shooting the Impact...
