No disrespect, but the opposite is true. The higher the front sight, the lower the impact. Rear sight adjustment goes in the direction you want impact.

This is also how I understand it. If the front sight is lowered, your impact point goes up and vice versa

Oh, I noticed, however the Internet is rife with folks flapping their gums, hence why I asked for more information.

I learned two things on this thread.
1. Don’t send him money
2. You fit the gum flapping profile perfectly

Thanks for the warm welcome.

You've not been around long enough to learn the secrets the old days. If you know, you know.

So, because I’m new I don’t deserve to be spared potentially getting ripped off?
You’re a real gem.

Did you get to keep the gun or do you have to send it back? In any case I'm glad you got you money back at least.

Yeah probably a simple fix

I have been advised to take something like a long sewing needle, put a slight bend in the tip and use that to stab the oring down in there and pull it out. If you go scraping at it you are likely to mar the sealing surface the oring sits in. I haven’t tried yet as my leak in my WC BT (second reg failure in less than a year I might add) is super slow and not worth messing with at this point. The first failure I sent the gun in after making feeble attempt at it. I will say that oring is super hard to see and if you can somehow find one that isn’t black that will help immensely the second time as that reg will fail again at some point just about certainly. A small light and a magnifier will probably help see down in there as well.

Thank you Trucker for the advice.

That Oring is a real pita to get out. Installing a new one is very easy if you follow the instructions that Utah airguns has on Utube. I ended up buying a dental pick kit off of Amazon. Before that I couldn't get the Oring to even move. It was really dried out!

Thank you for the video link. I will watch it carefully before diving into mine.

A got a used FX Royale500 .25 about a month ago and it shoots theJSB King 25.39 gr. Diabolos very accurately how ever I would like to get it to shoot flatter. AoA has a sale on Nielsen Specialty slugs. I ordered a box of their 29 gr. hollow points. I see that the smooth bore short rifled barrel may not stabilize slugs very well. I will certainly find out but in the mean time has anybody had experience with this combination?

Did you try adjusting the regulator pressure 10-20 bar higher? That will increase your FPS. I would do that first.

Also if you do get slugs remove the barrel and, using a wooden dowel, push a pellet from the breech end out the end. Note the amount of pressure. Then do the same with the slug. It should feel close to the same pressure as the pellet. Too loose and the slug will not grab the rifling and will not stabilize. Too tight and the slug will be slowed and destabilize in flight.

I don't think you will get the slugs to stabilize with the slow twist rate of an FX 500. Use pellets and be happy you have the best pellet shooter ever. It might shoot great at 25-30 yards but no good at 50 because of destabilization. If those slugs do work I'll be the first to buy some. Good luck. I have two FX 500's.

I totally agree with the first two gentleman. I have tried it with no luck. But if you really want to shoot slugs buy one with the right twist rate and you’ll be in business. Good luck Jack

Yes.

Also to some degree true for the little .177 calibre, but we really need someone to move something for this little calibre, CUZ it have been forsaken.
Slugs alone i am not sure will be enough.

Not just speaking CUZ my rulers have me chained to this little calibre, i think it is still relevant in my case not least for the cost of ammo VS the larger calibres.
I personally consider 100 M ELR for .177, but with a slight bump in barrel and ammo technology and granted another place to shoot i would be happy to try 150 - 200 M CUZ i do think it can be done, just not with that i got now in the way of barrels and ammo.

I am firmly a slug whore, but i do also shoot pellets now and then on the really calm days.

yes .177 is amazing. such a tiny little projectile in slug form can surprisingly give great results.

two smaller grey impact dots are first two consecutive hits by a 177 akela from 252 yards and then missed the next two shots. the three shiny larger impacts are from another AGN members ghost .22. easy work for that gun. was a big target but was set very far for the fun of the hobby. i was the one sitting on the left.

Trucker3573 · 2025-09-13T01:07:05-0500

Yeah beautiful gun for sure and I love the platform having a DW and a 2nd DW converted to an alpha. The idea of a compact model is great. The price certainly will keep me away from this one. A like new used AW or DW can be had for 1700-2k so it’s nearly impossible to justify (at least for me) any new form of the gun.

I have 2 Notos and 1 Zelos.
The Zelos is 2 times more expensive than the Notos.

They are both great airguns, made by Snowpeak in China.
I have more Snowpeak airguns than any other brand.

My 2 Notos are shooting between 15 and 20 FPE and are accurate enough up to 50 yards.
They are much more accurate up to 30-40 yards.

The 22 Zelos is accurate up to my farthest targets. around 70 yards, and 25-30F PE.

So, it depends on the length of your shooting range and the money you want to spend.
