Yeah, good idea R_M, thank you for your suggestion! (y) Once I'll do such attempt, I'll drop a result into this thread.

Actually not :D I am from Czech Republic, but I wanted to test Crown if it would be suitable rifle for Hunter Field Target competitions, which is limited to 12 FPE also in CZ ;)

Well, I needed low pressure to be able to shoot sub-12 fpe with Crown. And I thought to myself, that if that regulator is sold from HUMA in official range 60-135 bar, then 65 bars should not be an issue :)

Hi everyone, a time ago I bought from HUMA this regulator for my FX Crown, in version "Low pressure range FX 60-135 Bar (G3)". When I mounted it to my FX Crown and I set the reg pressure to 65 bar, it started to behave in a very strange way: - shot (zero time) - 3 seconds after shot = 50 bar -...

Well, today I measured similar values like 2L8. My Mk2 700 mm barrel sends .217 JSB KOs at 985 fps, reg pressure set to 115 bar. My Mk2 is equipped with heavy liner, HUMA high flow V2 dual hole transfer port and FX slug power kit.

Well, FYI, I just received a message from seller, that they met such issue in the past. They contacted FX directly and statement of FX is that it does not hurt performance of a gun. So, it's not nice, it does not look professionally (personally, if I would produce such part, I would not dare to...

One explaining photo to my post above :)

Hi guys, I bought FX carbon sleeve for my 700 mm .22 liner and one end of the sleeve is not perpendicular to sleeve axis. Do you think it might bother with something? Can I use such sleeve without any worries? Or shall I rather claim it to supplier?

Thank you for your reply. Just one more thing to mention: I am shooting .22 cal slugs 25,39 gr (700 mm Sup heavy liner).

Yeah, this is also my plan, I just did no mention it. I want to replace barrel transfer port, hammer, hammer spring and valve return spring. (valvehouse already changed within 52cc plenum kit installation)

Hello guys, please, is anybody of you somehow aware if FX foresee a bigger power plenum for Impact than the latest 72cc? I am asking because a time ago I've bought power plenum kit 54cc and a few months later FX introduced 72cc version... Now I am in doubts if I shall buy 72cc version or to wait...

Hi guys, I've bought Altaros dual regulator (in front of carbon bottle) and since that time the original quick fill pin is useless (carbon bottle is now filled via quick fill pin on dual reg). Please, would you recommend a "blind plug" to be able to remove the original quick fill pin and blind...

Guys, if you are interested to buy Praktica Hydan 25-75x90 spotting scope, I did a "benchmark" of spotting targets 50x50 mm (10x10 mm bull's eye) in ranges 50, 100, 120 m, used zooms 25x, 50x, 75x. Please check here: https://youtu.be/FYFzuCUAjZg

Hi Brad, currently I am lacking of time to shoot, but hopefully soon I'll take my upgraded Crown on a field and test the new setup. I'll share the results then immediately.

During benchrest shooting I use spotting scope Praktica Hydan 25-75x90. But leaving rifle to watch target through spotting scope was quite enoying, so I designed and printed an adaptor for my cell phone (currently I use Samsung Galaxy S8). More details (3D models to print, build comments and...
