Watch & Discuss the FX Streamline!

Just ordered my first pcp (maximus .22). plan on hand pumping. If I win this sweet pcp, I guess I'll have to pony up for an Air Venturi setup.

Impressive accuracy and consistant velocity along the life of the charge. I look forward to a day when I move to PCP from my springer.

Time & weather permitting, yes. Kral, Airforce, & Ataman come to mid as recent ones I moved to 7-10 shots per take. Between gun, chrony, and target all on the screen together, it's like editing 3 vids at once so can get a bit time consuming going from 5 to 10 shots in post. I like to when I can but usually I commit my time to multiple pellet choices instead. It usually works out to one or the other. Steve

Wow...nice! Real good review as usual from Steve...I have been looking at the Streamline and i like all of it. Power settings are awsome , it's not heavy, it's powerful and efficient. AWSOME...

How many shots does the fx streamline get because, a lot of airguns will only get to 20 to 40 shots per fill. Which is ok, it would just be nice to have one that gets up to 40 shots per fill or even a little higher.

Depends on caliber - on high power setting III .25 cal gets about 40, .22 cal about 60, and .177 cal probably 80+

The rifling being only at the end the barrel is really interesting. I would love to see some more accuracy comparison tests - particularly side by side with some other rifles that have a fully rifled barrel and shoot at comparable rates.
Also, that was an interesting stray shot at the end - and brings up the question of how much difference do you get using the magazine vs. single pellet loading. Shoot 5 with magazine and 5 with individually loaded pellets....
I like that you can get 60 shots from a fill at High and 90 at Medium. When I take my .22 Ruger 10/22 shooting I bring a couple hundred rounds at least. 60-90 shots lets you at least do some shooting before having to switch weapons. Dragging a pump or bottle to a range seems cumbersome so more shots is better.

I am just looking for my first PCP, and this one is on the top of my list. I need it for pesting, but am wondering about the reliability of it.

Does anyone know the differences between the FX-T12 and the Streamline aside from the power adjuster?

Love the review, like how it's tested in a real world experience, and not in an indoor range. Keep up the great work.

Do airgun suppressors and compensators have a certain number thread on the barrel that they have to go on just like on real guns; if so, what thread does the fx streamline have, and what is a great airgun suppressor brand that works really well.

Worthy competitor for the Daystate Huntsman Regal. Love the side lever cocking and the adjustable power and light weight! And I especially like the smooth twist concept. I'd love to own an FX rifle and this one doesn't break the bank. I'm in on this one with enthusiasm.

I plan on getting my first PCP soon. The Streamline is now on my shortlist, (along with Huntsman Regal and RX-10). How quiet the gun is is very high on my priority list. Anyone care to weigh in on sound levels comparing these three guns and is my caliber selection, (it'll probably be .177 or .22) going to affect the quietness, too?
