Come on FX airguns can I get 2 magazines with my very expensive purchase? Thank you so kindly!

So I purchased this rifle a month ago slightly used (51 slugs through it) for the sole purpose of dealing with a recent coyote problem on my block. When I first received it I put 10 shots threw and it started double feeding and so I sent it to FX to deal with. Got the rifle back last Thursday, through a bipod on it and started to dial it in. It's a 30 cal and for food I decided on JSB Hades and FX Hybrid slugs because both are the same weight and I figured shooting between the two would be simple to adjust for.
I shoot in my backyard and from where I sit to my 1/8" steel pellet trap it's 30 yards. The group in the pic was shot with the Hades and is 46 shots, two mags. What I look for in any gun, whether it's a firearm or an air rifle is boring accuracy. Well, that's exactly what I found in this one, boring accuracy! I could shoot another 100 pellets through that same hole if I wanted too......but as hard as 30 cal Hades are to find I'll save the rest for the coyotes.

The only things I added to this rifle was the upgraded Power Block, Huggett Magna silencer, and a GG&G Bipod. The tech at FX was nice enough to tune it close enough to where he thought I needed it to be and he was damn near dead on. Thanks FX, you guys are awesome!

I was happy to be able to spend some time with my new Huntsman Revere in .25 this afternoon.

As you may know, this is a superb bit of kit!

Here's what I have to compare it to;

- Benjamin Marauder .177
- S.A.M. .22
- Kratos .22
- Akela .22
- Kral Pro 500/Jumbo .22
- LCS SK19 .25
...and a number of old springers, and my relatively new R9.

Fit and finish is superior to any other PCP I have shot. There is a reason this Daystate is multiple times more pricey than my Turkish rifles, and it shows right from the first time you handle them. The only other rifle I own that has similar quality, is the R9.

The Stock is simply fantastic. Checkering and fit comparable to a very good sporting rifle. Transitions from wood to but pads are perfect, unlike on my Turkish rifles. The grip cap is a lovely detail well executed. It's got an overall solid feel, but no oversized beefy lines like the unfortunate Marauder stock who's obscene girth I have grown to dislike immensely for it's almost comical obesity. The Revere is a solid yet lightweight easily pointable rifle. Truly a "sporter" which I intend for all manner of pesting and a wide range of hunting. FYI, I did NOT win the "Woodgrain lottery" My particular Walnut stock is lovely, but it's simply not one of the amazing oes that often turn up. Even though the workmanship that went into this piece of wood is extraordinary, the blanks that ended up in all three of my Turkish walnut stocked air rifles are all "figuratively" more appealing. But of course the workmanship is not as good.

All the metal work is superior as well.
Trigger is fantastic. I've not touched it at all, though I understand there is significant room for adjustment. Loving it as is so far.
The safety is a new design for me, super solid and easy to read, just very different. I like were it is located, you can always see it, and it can be switched easily with either hand.

I purchased the .25, as I intend to use it primarily for pests. This still leaves me with a still substantial 10 round magazine.
This magazine is a wonder in it's self. Perhaps others have similar, but coming from the Marauder and Kral style mags of plastic, this is light-years superior. Machined from solid bits of aluminum, anodized black, it's easy to load, and fits into the rifle with an ease unlike any of the plastic ones. Magnets hold the loading gate shut, and the magazine into the rifle before the bolt is closed to lock it in. I've read that the rattle sound can be considered a drawback. I did not run onto that off the tripod shooting paper, but can imagine it when stalking. It does have one other problem, which is a bit of a major design flaw IMHO, but that's more than just the magazine itself...

The Design flaw: My "We the Plinkers" edition came from AOA with rings and a 3-10 MTC "Mamba" scope. My first impression of this set up was "why the tall rings on this small scope? there's enough clearance for this scope to drop much lower?"

In fact, the scope is mounted so high, that I am unable to achieve a decent cheek weld, I have to "cheat" up and use more of the side of my jaw. Not a terrible or uncommon issue when using a rifle not set up for ones own needs, but it reflects on the speed with which I can get a good view through the scope.
The height is of course due to the needs of the magazine clearance required to fit under the scope. Ok, that's a thing with air rifles, and the solution is to adjust the comb/cheek-piece height to accommodate. This lovely sporter stock looks right, but it simply isn't right for the required height of the scope. To have this wonderful Daystate with it's superior fit and finish in essence, handicapped by the fact that the comb is too low, (or the magazine and thus the scope its too high) ...well that's just bad planning.
If I don't use the amazing magazine and use the single shot, i can mount the scope to a height that offers perfect cheek weld. But I am not going to do that, nor should I be in a place to have to solve this problem either way (cheek pad, adjust my shooting etc..) all are solutions to a problem that should not exist. It simply needs a higher (or adjustable) comb straight from Daystate.
Obviously many overcome this hurdle, and it's such a nice shooter, that I will do the same. But if these ergonomics are important to you, and they should be, you really need to consider this defect before before buying. Even the Marauder has this problem covered (albeit in plastic) the Kratos and Cayden use the same gorgeous walnut for their adjustable combs, and the Pro 500 has a proper comb height out of the box.

Shooting:
I only put three magazines through it before deciding it was time to pack it in. At that point both reg gauges were reading at 110/115 BAR. Unfortunately I don't recall what the regulator meter was reading at the beginning, but after two magazines and at least 3 dry-fires, (approx 33 shots) it was down to reading the same 180 BAR as the main bottle gauge. I'll edit this when I get around to a refill to see where the reg gauge lands when full at 250BAR.

I shot JSB Exact King .25 25.39 gr, the same as AOA used for testing with the scope they dialed in (close but not quite on)
Daystate had dialed in the reg for the Heavies. I'll try those next time.
I don't use a chrono, but AOA's data on the 5 shot test group with Kings are 814-816 FPS for 37.37-37.55 FPE.
Daystate's results using the King Heavies was 726.6-737.4 fps 39.8-41 fpe.

I was shooting at 35 yards (the max for my at home "range" ie: backyard) and this rifle with it's excellent trigger is a one hole wonder (lower right) at that range to be sure. I'd be better off with a superior scope, my eyesite is too old for 10x even at 35 yards.
I was surprised to see that even as the reg pressure began to drop with the bottle gauge reading, the poi never began to poop down. My last two shots (upper left) were as high as anything else. This leads me to believe I could get more shots, but I had reason to pack it in, and I was not looking to drop bottle pressure too far under 100 BAR.

All in all, and fantastic, well made peice of engineering with a lot of "just right" Goldilocks about it's build, size etc. I'll see what I can do about the comb/scope height issue. I'll be curious to see how much further I can push it at .25 shot count, but imagine that .22 and .177 would be far more likely options for this small tube gun. In my case, i have my big bottle "load it on Sunday and shoot all week" rifles already, this was just what i was looking for. My most compact rifle with the heaviest hit!

Was weeding through my pellets and rather than throw away a massively beat up tin….I decided to shoot a group with all of them. Probably 75% of the pellets had badly misshapen skirts. Took me about 20 minutes for this 200 shot group at 50y. I think the one all by itself must have been a bad pellet.

. . . I've shot - I don't know, maybe 5 FT events in my life locally with a group in the Binghamton, NY area (BCSA). This was the first one I've shot this year. I do it purely for fun - I'm not "serious" about it and as such haven't invested in a dedicated FT rig - and I totally brought the WRONG one with me today. ( lol . . . ) While I'm not into FT or serious about it as mentioned - I DO have some pride and - well - expect MUCH better of my shooting than what was painfully on display today. I do a lot of shooting around farms - pesting for local farmers. I like / prefer shorter bullpups and own a few. I have a little Taipan standard .177 with a 4-14 scope on it that has seen action around some of the farms that I shoot at. I didn't have a sidewheel for it, but did have one kicking around that came with one of my other guns scopes. I managed to clobber-ass / jury rig that wheel onto it and then this past Wed / Thurs quick ranged it / marked it up out in the back yard. I thought I might practice some Friday too (yesterday) after work but other stuff came up and I wasn't able to. So . . . this morning I made my way out to the club and took my place on the line and . . . . actually started out pretty good. About midway through - lane 5 or 6 - I started tanking. Big time. I couldn't hit the side of a barn - *very frustrating*. Needless to say I couldn't get to lane #10 fast enough to just get this over with. I told the match director that heart surgery I had last November was less painful than this was proving to be . . . {sigh}

Back to basics -- I have an old M-Rod (gen 2) that pretty much just sits and collect dust - it's a .177 with a LW barrel and a huma reg in it. The thing is a laser and I just put it back together, got it sending 10.3's at an average of 898 fps over a 60 shot string ( 60 is a full FT match as many of you will already know ). I found an old scope that was also sitting lonely and unused. It's an old Aztec emerald 5-25 or something like that. Why don't I use it on any of my current guns? It's MOA (I prefer MIL), its SFP (I prefer FFP's) and it doesn't have an illuminated reticle. But that reticle in that scope . . . I LOVE that reticle. Always have. So . . . thats my dedicated FT rig now. Hopefully next time will be better than today was.

"Drug dealer" @the event you ask? ( lol ) One of the guys was WAY cool and super nice enough to let me try / shoot his Daystate Redwolf. *HOLY CRAP* - you ever shoot one of those things??!! ( I'm sure many of you have ) I had not. Seen 'em before. I've seen Ferrari's before too. Haven't been offered a chance to drive one yet though. The Redwolf . . . holy mackeral. That's a Ferrari of an airgun. Drug dealer. See? ( "Here . . . have a sample of this. Oh - you like?! AOA has them . . . " )

Are you new to PCP or just want to increase the power with some silly power mod you found on the net or a kit you bought?

Please watch this First "PCP Air Rifle Explodes! Almost Kills My Buddy" and think twice.

Working on a PCP airgun can be very dangerous, just one mistake can change or end your life.
Never ever disassemble your gun with any pressure in your gun make sure you depressurize it 100%
If your not sure what you're doing then stop and seek out professional help or advise.

Disclaimer: I have no relations to these two men just want my fellow shooters to be safe and have fun.

Pulled the Grand prix out the closet, charged the battery, aired up and blasted off a few rounds. Target @ 35 yds. Top hole aimpoint then 10 shots on Target. Jsb 10.3@ 900 fpe. Blasted spinners put to 70 yds

Hi, I am at my wits end here!

So, I decided to fine tune the hammer spring; turned power wheel to the adjusment aperture (uncocked gun), gave it one CC turn - forgot to turn the power back to 7, cocked & fired. Surpised at the (obviously) abysmal result, I repeated once more before I realized my mistake. So, after two shots in the adjustment position, I finally returned back to setting 7, and tried to fire - nada. The trigger is dead; i.e. I squeeze, nothing happens, i feel it bottom out & spring back a bit when I release it, but hammer does clearly not get released.
I even - with a heavy heart, since the gun was cocked - turned the wheel back to the adjustment position & then the adjustment screw to the original setting; didn't change the situation one iota. Nor did trying to operate the rear end of the trigger assembly directly.
So now I have a cocked gun with no idea how to depressurize the plenum, nor how to proceed from there. Can I carefully open the second reg adjustment screw & bleed the pressure that way, or will the screw just pop out at full pressure and kill someone??
Any help/advice/thought is greatly appreciated! Am on my vacation, planned to do a lot of tuning and test firing all week long, really bummed out right now!

The formula for the number of air guns a person should own is of course = N + 1, where "N" is the number of guns one currently owns. Thought it might be fun to have a thread to see who has a new plus 1 and what they think about it. We'll all be battling for the silver medal behind Crowski I'm sure ha! Kim's anniversary present HW 30S Deluxe got here last night. Too late to shoot it but the grin on her face while holding it tells me I did well. Might be the second-best anniversary present ever, behind the Pyr puppy I gave her 4 years ago. She's small and was REALLY happy with the size and light weight. Said it was going to be perfect for shooting off hand with open sights and dispatching snakes etc. which is the plan for this gun. Will post feedback after she gets to shoot it. FedEx says they're going to be here with my "new" gun today. Could be another post later.

Hello Airgun Nation, greetings from Peru.
I am a rookie in the Airgun World, around ten years ago I had to gave away my shotguns and shells. Since then, I always was thinking to shooting again. I found in PCPs a great opportunity to get back.
After waiting for more than two years, recently I bought a Kalibrgun Cricket 2 Tactical 45 cal .22. Really, what I wanted to buy was a FX Wildcat III, but it never arrived to my country. In Peru, the market is small and it is not easy to get a good PCP Rifle. There are many Chinese, Indian, Turkish guns but I didn't want any of those. Fortunately a Dealer import some Kalibrgun, Air Technology and othe Chez guns . I chose the KC2T 45 cal .22 to start in the Airgun World.
Given the above, after I bought the KC2T 45 cal .22, I got an Element Optics Helix Scope 6.24x40 FFP mounted on Vortex Optics Pro (extra high) weavers. Also, I bought two DonnyFl moderators Tanto and Tatsu. I'm already bought many cans of JSB Exact Jumbo Heavy 18.13 and Jumbo Monster 25.39 pellets... given all this, I will ask for your help guys.
You all have a wide experience with PCPs and maybe some of you know well the KC2T 45 cal .22 too. I have some questions that maybe some of you can answer and help me:
1) What FPS do you recommend me to get the best performance using each of the above pellets type?
2) For this airgun what Far Zero do you think is the best to set?.
3) I watched a video in Youtube, where there was used Loctite 243 to tight the spring regulator. How can I remove the Spring regulator screw to apply some Loctite correctly?.
4) Someone can tell me what was the longest and accurate shot made with this Rifle? therefore, thinking on his/her experience, to reach the longest accurate and possible shot distance , what tips would you give me to consider?
5) When you are not using the Rifle, what pressure do you recommend to leave in the air tank?
6) When you fill the air for first time, What do I have to consider? I heard that I have to keep the cocking side lever open, is it true? what else?
7) Do I have to reach the 300bar indicated in the manometer, or is better to load up to 250bar to protect the O-rings?
8) Please give me any other tip that you would consider useful and valuable ...
Below a picture of my gun in its case .... Thank you in advance for all tips and time...

My air Venturi Compressor is dieing a slow death and the factory says send it in for repair. If I lived in Parkway Ohio I would do that. Living in SW Washington State it's both too far to drive and cheaper to by a new one than to ship it.
So....What do i get now? I don't need something that is rated for breathing air. I do want something that is reliable and repairable. I don't want to spend more than $3K for a unit. I have to drive an hour to get to a SCUBA supply shop. Maybe lease a Nitrogen high pressure tank for the garage with the appropriate fittings and use that?? Although many of the rifles I own direct one to use air only. Any thoughts would be really appreciated.

I am giving away about 270 NSA 61.5 grain slugs & 50-60 of the Dale Riggert 62 grain slugs that I no longer have a use for - you only have to send me $10.00 for shipping via USPS Priority Mail Small Box. Send the funds by PayPal Friends or Family and I will ship them today Saturday.
Best regards, Chuck Peffley

Is this a tungsten hammer weight (see picture). Probably seems like an odd question, like I should know, but there are a couple reason I am asking and don’t know.
1. I didn’t order tungsten hammer weight. I ordered a slug power kit and just received it but opted not to get the hammer weight. If I remember correctly the reason I decided not to get the weight is that I have a 600mm barrel, and I believe I was told that with the 600mm barrel the hammer weight would leave the valve open to long and dump air out after the slug exited. Does this sound correct? When I received the slug power kit it had this part in it, but I don’t see that part in any pictures of the slug power kit.
2. The second reason that I am not sure that this is a hammer weight is that it mostly looks like the pictures of the hammer weight, but it is tapered at the end and none of the pictures I see of the hammer weight are tapered like that.
It does feel quite heavy for such a small part.
Two more questions.
It has been a while, but I think I remember reading that if you have the M3 you should not install the rubber ball, is that correct?
And in the Earnest Rowe video on installing the slug power kit he says it comes with a couple spacers to add tension to the hammer spring. Mine did not have those spacers am I missing something or has there been a change since that video was made?

Thanks for any help.

For many mornings, we had "the odor", so we knew we had a skunk hanging around. Well, it got bold today and started nibbling on the bird feeder spillage in plain sight.
When he saw us, he raised his tail, then he got comfortable once his message was made known.

Well, at an easy 20 yards, FX Impact .30 made its message known! No spray!!!


Right in the 'ol noggin.
