    30-Yard Challenge

    Hi Guys, The wind finally died down right as the sun was going down yesterday so I shot a quick 30yd Challenge card with the DRS. For the leader board - 193-13x with the DRS 500mm .177 using FX 13.4gr pellets at about 820fps Not a big improvement over my previous best with this rifle (1...

    Nightforce scopes NX8 or ATACR

    Hi, A while back Cavedweller (the OP) asked if anyone had data on the rotation angle of the NX8 for the all-important 40-55yd range for field target. It took me a while to find it and then put it on the chart with some of the other scopes I have tried, but here it is: These are all scopes I...

    FX FX Crown adding weight

    Hi Keith1 The only thing that needs to be changed to use the GRS Stock is that you need a longer Safety Switch as the GRS stock is thicker than the laminate or synthetic stock at that point. If you purchase the stock used, you should ask for the Safety Switch. You would have to ask Utah...

    FX FX Crown adding weight

    Hi Hopsing, I am sorry to have to report to you that all the info on the FX website (and thus the Utah Airguns website) about the Crown GRS stock is incorrect. It is not as heavy as the FX info says. They show the rifle with the synthetic stock at 6.2 lbs, with the laminate stock at 6.8...

    FX Looking for Hammer Spring holding crown part for FX

    Hi Jlowe, Bagnal and Kirkwood in the UK carry the part as do Europe Airguns in Spain. Below is the web page for B&K. Europe Airguns is offline today as most of Spain and Portugal had major power outages today. The shipping is usually cheaper from Spain, but both can get you the part in a...

    30-Yard Challenge

    You called it Ed! I really like how it feels. The DRS is better balanced than the Crown and isn't as top heavy when shooting off hand. This makes it a bit easier to keep on target . Also it is more than 2 lbs lighter than the Crown in basically the same configuration. That also helps with...

    30-Yard Challenge

    Nice shooting Joe! That is a killer card for a .177 at 40 yds. Looks like that RAW is dialed in. How fast were you shooting the 13.4gr pellets? Also, what scope are you using and at what power? That info helps populate all the info on the leader board. I find it useful to see what other...

    FX FX Crown safety adjustment screw

    Hi, That is a standard M3x6 grub screw. You can get an entire kit of metric grub screws from Amazon for cheap. You simply replace the M3x6 with and M3x8 or an M3x10. Cheers, Greg

    30-Yard Challenge

    ED, I am absolutely convinced that the moderator you choose can make a big difference in accuracy. I have read a lot on the external ballistics of pellets this past winter and realize that the accuracy of the pellet can be greatly affected by the whoosh of air coming out of the barrel behind...

    FX Any plans for different sized DRS Plenums?

    DavidGowen22, Anything to report on possible mid-sized plenums for the DRS? It has been a couple of months. I am willing to bet that just about anyone who bought a DRS Classic in the US would be interested in a 30 cc ish sized plenum. Cheers, Greg

    30-Yard Challenge

    Thanks Ed! Yes, it sure looks like that could have been the problem. However, I still had plenty of air as I shot two more cards after this. I am going to look at my pellet measurements for those shots to see if they fell into a certain range and I will check the velocities to see if there...

    30-Yard Challenge

    Hi Again, Really nice day today here so I got a bunch of shooting in. I am evaluating the AEA 21.9gr .22 cal pellets in the Nordic Wolf Crown. The 500mm .22 barrel has given me really good results with the FX and JSB 18.1 gr. To do the evaluation I measure and weigh 192 pellets (eight...
