My side-lever on my fx crown mk2 in .25 seems to get stuck in place only when the magazine is in it, but I can barely tap on the trigger and it un-jams the side-lever and im able to load another slug into the chamber, I took the magazine out and open and closed the side-lever like 30+ times and it didn't get stuck on me once, it only happens when I have a magazine in place. Any thoughts?

This one is a pretty clear one. I've had 4 of these scopes, and this one is clear all the way up to 16. Very good glass and turrets are crisp. Just selling because the reticle is a bit thin and my eyes aren't getting younger. That, and I'm downsizing all my guns and scope to shed weight.

Comes with dovetail mounts, sunshade, and the torch/flashlight mount ring.
Damn good scope, just don't have a rig it fits that doesn't already have a scope.

I was in the living room drinking some water and saw this young male yearling decided to chillax on my oak tree. The squirrel fever kicked in the high gear! Grabbed my DreamTac Compact that I lowered the scope and zeroed yesterday and my mag of 177 hades(so I thought). Wife and kids are out so I cracked open the glass patio door and put the center dot just above its head and squeezed the trigger. Heard a solid thud but to my surprise I missed the brain, thankfully it was holding its head at the trunk of the tree. Feeling horrible I quickly put 2 more shots into it to end its suffering. A little perplexed on how I missed so bad, even though these 14 yard shots aren't easy but still.

Went to retrieved the body and found all 3 pellets under the pelt and realized my error. Instead of the mag with 10.3g Hades I used the mag with 13g monster, they fly much slower on the same setting in the mid 500fps so the POI was much lower. Then where I found the pellets shocked me! First pellet remained in the head but it got absolutely crushed, talk about expansion! WOW! Second and third pellets were found in the groin and base of the tail, the entry were at the shoulder and right below the ear! They cut through the entire body length!!! And the leg and shoulder were absolutely shattered!!! HOLY COW!!! At such low speed I could not believe just how much penetration and damage the 13 grain pellets at 550 fps have! That just blew my mind!!!
Red circles are entries and yellow circle is where I found one of the pellets.


Here is the squirrel with my DTC for size reference, it was young but very good size and healthy.


The left is the first pellet in the head and 2 that went through the length of the body.




And of course I forgot to press the record button again thanks to squirrel fever!

On my .22 M3 I have what seems like intermittent friction in the hammer or valve system. What happens is that I can dial in a speed, then when I use it days later, speed may be 70-100fps lower. If I shoot it long enough (LOOONG like 50+ shots) the speed might return to where it was. Maybe on a good day the speed starts out close to where it should be set (normal).

The regulator is rock solid always returning to the set point (digital gauge).

Breech o-ring has been replaced and I don't feel any air puffs in that area (passes toilet tissue test).

Hammer friction seems least likely since that is a pretty simple part of the system.

I'm very familiar with the Impact cold-start behavior, but I don't think I've ever seen it exceed ~10 shots on this gun in it's earlier days. My first thought is that this has to be caused by the same PUR90 valve rod o-ring (E103) that is responsible for Impact cold start behavior, and mine has deteriorated and/or needs relubing.

One more factor with this gun is that over the winter, I experienced what seemed like 'valve leak'. After a shot, I heard air escaping through the transfer port and down the barrel. Dry firing about 5 times got it to stop and it has not happened again since. Is there any valve failure mode that could result in friction/resistance to opening and be contributing to my inconsistency?

At minimum, I'm looking at replacing the E103/104/105 o-rings, but would like to know if I should be considering replacing the valve as well. Also, is there any better lube than SuperLube Silicone Grease for the valve rod and that pesky E103 oring? Anything else I'm missing?

Have any of you ever used a scope with a BDC reticle and been able to related your trajectory with the BDC markings inside the scope in a useful way? I can't help but think you'd just have to be lucky to find the right projectile and speed to make use of more than maybe 2 dots. Opinions and experience needed.

Anyone know where I could pick up a 1/2-20 female to male extension, I can't seem to find any. One of my rifles I can not add a mod to as it hits the air tube.

Windy day today, got home early not even expecting to shoot. However, I looked out back and a bunch of starlings were harassing a baby Robin on the ground and the adult Robin's were flipping their chit.

I decided to intervene. I shot the younger starling first as it was a sitting duck. The flock flew up to the wires and then came down and hovered over the baby screeching. Never seem them hover like that. The mother came down and got a dose of 21 grain lead.

Oh, I finally chronied the 21 cuda pellets, and they're averaging 666 fps which is just hilarious. Over 20 fpe too boot!

Happy pesting gents!

So I’ll be getting this L2…kind of curious what people would trade for it. .30 caliber

I’m not too keen on trading it…unless I get the “perfect” offer. If you’re going to ask me what the “perfect” offer is…I really don’t know myself. Just offer and we’ll see.

.30 caliber leshiy 2 with a 450mm barrel. It will come with huma reg with the larger plenum, 450mm Alfa precision barrel, Huma aesir kit with the long pic M-LOK guard, REG TESTER, and Huma mod 40 moderator.

I am debating whether to keep, and these trade offers will let me know which I should do.

Twenty nine tins through her without any troubles from out the box… Hope this answers @SHOMER, shot count question. I get 25 quality, full power shots out of mine for pesting. While plinking? Three full mags for 33 shots. Don’t use it at the lower power setting currently.

I am new to pellet guns and was gifted an 850M2 to take care of iguanas on my property. They will be about 30-50ft away. My question is where should I purchase items such as bipod, co2, pellets, and scope from? I prefer to purchase online. Also, does anyone have any recommendations for these items?

Thank you.

I have a lot of .25 slugs for sale. One NSA box has 2 open bags in it equaling more than a full bag if that makes sense. I’ll sell for $125 shipped. Will trade for .357 pellets

How much better has the shot count and valving gotten from the Impact MK2 to the FX Panthera? Is it worth the upgrade? For example if I slap on a 580cc bottle on both my MK2 and a Panthera…how much more efficient is the Panthera? Operating reg pressure? Shot count? Is it worth the upgrade?

Aside from the obvious larger plenum on the Panthera, is there more to it than just a larger plenum? I mean theoretically speaking, if I slapped on the same plenum system onto my MK2…how much more efficient would the Panthera be?

I’d like to have quantitative data if possible. Any FX reps…I’d like for you to chime in if possible. Thank you all.

How do you make folks understand that hunting is not about killing something? Hunting is to immerse yourself in the experience. The simple act of being in the in the wilderness is to become one with and respect the forest, fauna and animals that reside there. I've been on many hunts where I never fired a shot, but returned home renewed for the experience itself. A person who takes pleasure in taking a life, simply for the act of the killing has a rotten soul. I hope this message resonates with you all and helps you become a mature hunter.

I leave you now with this quote from George Bird Evans:

"The child tells what he got for Christmas, the mature man tells how he spent the day; the immature hunter tells how many birds he shot, the mature gunner tells of the experience."

Where to purchase and who has the best deal?

Something new, something old - or both?

I shot this five shot group at fifty yards with my highly self touted 177 HW95. It looked great through the scope until I waded through waist high chigger and tick invested grass only to find it was twice the size it looked through the scope.

Oh well better luck tomorrow. In all fairness it was a random tin and the gun was last sighted at ten yards in my basement.

I'm here for a week. Hopefully I can redeem myself.
