    Tru-Oil is my favorite finish too but Cali banned it several years ago. Here is a stock I did way back with Tru-Oil.

    FX Anyone got there FX DRS in yet??

    What finish did you use it turned out great? Pics never catch the grain in a nice wood stock, so I can use my imagination.

    FX M3 STD Liner 22cal 36gr Slugs Surprise

    Curious why do you have it set so high if your final reg is at 145Bar? Max safe setting according to FX and Ernest Rowe (and my own experience) is about 160Bar. The manual shows 170Bar upper max to avoid damage for the M3 Impact. You dont really need that much difference between the two regs...

    Other Advice on first pcp

    Get a Gamo Urban, its built much better than a Notos and will last you many many years. More power and more shot count as well. But the Notos isnt a bad option. I have a FourUncles brand hand pump that has been chugging along for years I use on my tube pcps.

    FX FX Maverick .22 settings ....a little help needed .

    You have the heavy hammer weight hitting a medium valve/reg setting. Turn up the front reg to 150-155Bar, and the rear reg to 135-140Bar and start your hammer wheel on low. Whenever you are adjusting a tune or setting up a rifle you need to make sure your hammer adjustments are actually in...

    N/A Where to begin

    Do plenty of research but I can tell you from experience you will save thousands by starting out with a good setup the first time. FX Maverick Compact or Wildcat BT, Hunting range with slugs will be 100-150yds Omega Trail Charger Arken EPL4 or SH4J in a decent set of rings If you dont choose...

    FX Wildcat 3 22 cal slug options?

    Nielsen Slugs work amazing in my 500mm Wildcat Tube version. I have been using the 17.5g in several rifles, and they are awesome. Great accuracy and lots of punch for bigger pests. The 20.2 grain are also supposed to be exceptional but I have a big pile of the lighter ones to go through first. I...

    What Red Dot scope is your favorite and why.

    I own an Ultradot 30mm, Bushnell TRS25, Vortex Spitfire Sparc 2, and a Swampfox Liberty in green. All of them have been used for years on all kinds of setups, both air and powder burners. I dont know that I could pick only one since they are all so different, but here are some things I like...

    300yd optic

    Get the 700mm barrel, you will need all the help you can get. A 25Cal in my opinion has a pigeon accuracy max of about 200yds. I can hit a ground squirrel very consistently with my 25Cal Impact at about 160yds max...so far. Shooting targets further is challenging with the low speeds an BC of an...

    N/A Great Pcps for under $600

    Almost certain just a rebrand, made in the same factory. Umarex is more of a contract to production company, they dont make a lot of their lineup. They also might just be a distributor/importer to get some air products into the US that hasnt been in the past. The Zelos looks pretty cool.

    FX Used Fx Impact m3

    300+ Yards? What is your target an abandoned barn? Expect 10-20moa groups and huge scope elevation erector assembly. It can be done, and has but its not anything like a PB. You will need expensive equipment, ammo, compressor, etc. A Gauntlet 30Cal isnt going to get you where you want lol. But...

    FX Does this seem right?

    Yes exactly. You can use an allen key to adjust the preload on the hammer spring. It is designed for fine tuning your last few fps. But if it is all the way backed out it can really lower your overall speeds. So turn your power wheel so the hole is at 6 o'clock and you can adjust the set screw...

    Hello Im looking for just the Shroud Assembly for either an Impact or Wildcat/Maverick preferably with the correct air stripper diameter for a 25/30Cal in 600mm. I can use a 177 or 22 Cal too. I have lots of FX Parts to trade if you need something or can pay through paypal ff. Thanks ETA...

    FX Does this seem right?

    Well there isnt really a need for the reg gauge to go so high. 250Bar is probably the best since gauges are more accurate in the middle of their range, and you can read a lower value gauge more precisely. So if your regs are set within the FX suggested ranges, a 200Bar gauge is still a great...
