FX Verminator Mk2 Extreme Precharged Air Rifle

Jump to latest Follow Reply
I got my .22 Verminator Extreme many years ago. I'm pretty sure it's the MKII. 
You're familiar with the guns I talk about and which ones I really enjoy. Sometimes, I mention my "top 3 shooters" (This was before I got the Crown). MY Royale 400 and my Wildcat are the ones that I mention the most. Well, the Verminator is the 3rd one that's rarely talked about. I've used it every year for the 25y comp at EBR. 
For some reason my trigger is stupid light! I could get it fixed or fix it myself but, I've gotten used to it and I kinda like it. It's also very quiet with the included moderator. It "locks" into ME very well which, I think, adds to its accuracy for me. It's based on the Royale block so, it's got that silky smooth action and everything for the Royale works for the Vermy too. 
On the downside... It's awkward having such a long unsupported barrel/shroud sticking so far out. Mine got bumped somewhere along the way and I ended up having a clipping issue that had to be turned on a lathe to remedy. You have to use the (tedious to load) FX style magazine or get yourself a single shot loader. If you break it down and build it up over and over, you stand a greater chance of having some sort of accident that could cause an issue. Hasn't happened to me but, it's still a possibility. Mounting a bipod rail can be a bit challenging due to all the curves of the stock. But, it's doable.
On to the arrow shooter - WOW! I've said it before and I'll say it again. I'm actually afraid to shoot at the same bull inside of 50 yards for fear of splitting an arrow. It also get a lot lighter with the arrow kit. I tend to carry it around right where the bottle screws in because that's where the center of gravity moves to. It also gets loud when you shoot the arrows. Goes off with a "PAP!"
I think I'd shoot mine more often if I had a long case that it would fit in without breaking it down.
