    FX FX problems

    I'm not sure how the impact design compares to the Maverick design. But on the maverick , there is a small gap between the shroud and the block. I placed these washers in there to create tension when i'm tightening down the shroud and it solved my POI shift.

    FX FX POI Shift : SOLVED ?

    UPDATE: I tightened my jamb nut again, left the 10 o rings on the liner and decided to go a different route. I have the compact so I did not think "barrel bump" or shift was an issue, but turns out I may have been wrong. I added spacers (see pic) between my shroud and the block. 2 nylon...

    N/A .

    FX Maverick Compact .30 cal. Regs 165/145. I have been trying to figure out my POI issues too. It may happen while shooting or while gun has sat overnight. It still shoots good groups, just might be a 1/2" from where you are sighted in at. It seems it is much more frequent when shooting...
