    High Power .177

    A high power .177 slug rifle is going to be my next purchase/build. I am waiting to see how these JSAR Raptors do in the hands of the first round of customers, but I haven't seen any posts yet. I am also contemplating getting an LW Poly barrel in .177 fitted to my MKII Impact. I hear nothing...

    Why? FX 600mm .vs. 700mm barrel in .25

    The only caveat I have to offer to that regarding the "accuracy" of the 700 vs 600 mm. barrel is that the only way I can get the slugs to give me identical accuracy results to pellets at close range is to get them going between 900-1000 fps. I wasn't able to achieve this velocity with my 600 mm...

    Uragan (updates as I learn the gun)

    Many, many thanks Michael. This really is an amazing little gun for the money. Mine is also shooting the 10.34 JSB's flawlessly, but I am determined to see if I can make this thing shoot the 15.5 slugs. Do any of you know if/where you can purchase different sized air cylinders? I would...

    Uragan (updates as I learn the gun)

    Once I figure out how to increase the reg, I will try again. I have a ton of .177 slugs in a few different sizes. My gun, as is out of the box, only gets the 15.5 gr NSA slugs going out the muzzle at 670 FPS. It very well may not be a slug shooter, but I am curious what this thing can do.

    PCP General Information Question

    Two nights in county jail and$15k in legal bills taught me to think twice about asking strangers about "a place to find some high quality PCP"...

    Has anyone heard from D-RIG?

    I exchanged email with him within the last week. He told me that he is going to start swaging .177 slugs and begin testing them with the potential to start selling them in a couple months or so.

    Uragan (updates as I learn the gun)

    I too am too chicken to monkey with the reg without having someone smarter than myself do it successfully first and post a how-to guide. My gun is working too well for me to mess it up. That being said, if I end up getting a .177 LW poly barrel for my MKII Impact, I may be willing to be...

    Youth PCP Options?

    I posted this same question a month or so ago in the PCP section of the forums and got a lot of great information/recommendations. I ultimately decided on the BSA Ultra JSR (purchased from AOA) and couldn't be happier. My 5-year-old daughter loves it and the fit is perfect. I will...

    25 cal. HP Slugs @ 173 yards "Exploding" water filled cans. A short 2 Min. Video

    I have contemplated swaging my own slugs because I already have a high-end co-ax press that I use for my powder burners. I'm not sure I can find a swaging die that will work with my press or if it is even hefty enough to swage. How are you liking your Corbin?

    Any shot slugs from a pellet liner?

    Before buying slug liners for my various calibers, I gave it the old college try with various slugs at various weights through my smooth twist X pellet liners. While accuracy results with some slugs were close enough for government work, they were not up to my standards for precision shooting...

    FX slug liners in .177?

    Does anyone know if FX intends to manufacture slug liners for .177?

    :)

    Thanks for the reply, Ernest. This is probably a stupid question, but is that an aftermarket piece that I can purchase? If it is, is it something that a novice like myself could install?

    I can’t get my MKII to shoot the 27gr NSA .22 slugs much faster than 920 FPS. I have room to go higher on my reg, but seem to run out of hammer spring tension. With my HS tension maxed, my FPS actually decreases when I set my reg much higher than 145B.

    Reg pressure

    I have to go higher than 140 (not a lot higher) when shooting .22 and .25 slugs out of my MKII. Like sonny, I also have to set my reg just under 150 to get the 34s to around 900 FPS

    Daystate red wolf 177 hp and slugs.

    Would you mind posting some pics of the groups you are getting with the .177 slugs? I currently own an MKII Impact setup to shoot pellets and slugs in .22 and .25. Don’t know if FX ever plans to make slug liner in .177. If I can’t get my Uragan to satisfactorily shoot the .177 slugs, I will...
