    RedWolf heavy pellets

    Last post was over a year ago; nobody is working with the H&N HP 30gr 22. It is coated with a something plastic like perhaps like some 22LR rounds. It is a heavier slug. FX recommends the heavy barrel liner for .22 projectiles over 23gr. I have the 700mm barrel, the twist is 1:16 according to...

    Anybody have a problem with the FX Impact Ambidextrous Cocking Block?

    Here are before and after shots of the block/level. _141001 is what I had after installing it. _111330 is after I turned the linkage over. It you look at it closely the linkage holes are offset. Sorry the second is not so clear but you can see the result.

I assume this would be a non-ideal setup for it appears is costs you shots per fill but I'm...

    Anybody have a problem with the FX Impact Ambidextrous Cocking Block?

    FX barrel Slug vs Pellet port (air efficiency)

    I was very pleased to find this post. I've had my Impact MK2 700mm .25 cal for a couple of years. This year I decided to do a deep dive into tuning if. This forum, AEAC and others have been very informative. I'd never given the S&P ports much thought. The other day I discovered I was using the...
