    Other thinking about buying an avenger, for plinking and some occasional hunting. would a hand pump be reasonable or a compressor is a must?

    I got by with hand pumps for my first ten years. Still have them but im too spoiled wth my compressors to use them again.

    FX My FX rifles good news and bad news

    My five year old Dreamline Classic has not leaked. The Wildcat i bought new a year ago has leaked since day one.It's such a slow leak,50 bar a month that's not worth taking apart to find it.

    Impact M3 Accuracy Question

    A very slight breeze will also effect your groups greatly,especially at the longer distances.

    Just weighed a new tin of the original style CPHP Crosmans

    Besides the weight variation on the tins that i have checked the head diameter varies as much as .005'',i got no use for them.

    FX Halo slugs

    Price will be the determining factor for me though it seems timing is off to launch a new projectile when we cant even find pellets in stock. It's like the new 30 Supper Carry by Federal.new round when you cant buy most ammo,bullets for reloading or primers.

    Tuning Thank You FX USA Customer Support!

    First time i called FX USA was about three years ago and they had all the parts needed in stock for a 20 year old Tarantula. That really surprised me. I have since bought a bunch of parts just to have them for my two newer guns and those were in stock as well. Say that about any other company.

    Surprised by Benjamin Cayden

    My Cayden has shot many a 1/4 inch group at 50 yards with FX and JSB 18.13 pellets. I coudnt expect it to shoot well with Crosman hollowpoints that vary as much as .005 on head diameter.
