    Thanks Tony @ Talon Airguns

    Thanks to Tony at Talon Airguns. I ordered a Uragan 3 - .25 calibre with a 700mm barrel and red laminated stock. I asked Tony to set it up for 33 to 35 grain slugs. Tony delivered an airgun ready to shoot, and shoot well. When I got the chance to really play with it, I learned he took the...

    Athlon Ares BTR Gen.2 4.5-27x50 question

    I live in a rural area with no Athlon dealers close by. There is no opportunity to go look through an Athlon. The reviews I've read about the Ares BTR Gen. 2 have all been very positive. The one thing I have not seen discussed is the close focus. I know the parallax adjustment is 25 yards to...

    FX Wildcat Mk3 + H&N Mk2 slugs = Magic

    I've been round and round trying to find a slug that would shoot well in my Wildcat MK3 BT Compact. I've tried at least a dozen different slugs of varying brands, diameters and weights but never got the accuracy I was wanting; until yesterday. I tried the H&N HP2 slugs, 0.218" diameter, 25...

    Do 0.177's pop?

    I thought my back yard set-up was "neighborhood friendly", I was wrong. My wife heard me dispatch a squirrel and said it "sounded like a gun". I'm shooting a 22 Dreamline, pushing out Hades pellets at 890fps. I'm pretty sure what she heard is the pellet hitting the "target". It make a pretty...

    Wildcat Mk 3 BT Shroud search

    Airgun Nation; I've got a 0.22 Wildcat Mk 3 BT compact. It is tuned to shoot NSA 20.2 grain slugs at 985 fps or NSA 23 grain slugs at 945 fps. This is a "killer" set up for squirrels. The only short coming is the shot count, it is only good for 2 magazines. This little PCP has some amazing...

    Wildcat MK3 BT Slug tune?

    Is anyone here shooting slugs out of a 22 caliber Wildcat MK3 BT Compact successfully? FX advertise these as being designed for heavy pellets and slugs. Ted Bier's is shooting 23 grain slugs at 950 to 1000 fps out of a Wildcat BT Compact on YouTube. I'd like to shoot 22 caliber 23 grain slugs...

    Wildcat Mk3 BT regulator question

    I've read the owner's manual, searched here at Airgun Nation as well as YouTube; but cannot find where the adjustment for the first regulator on a Wildcat Mk3 BT is located. The FX parts diagrams do not include the Wildcat Mk3 BT. The owner's manual shows a Maverick not a Wildcat. Is the...

    New Toy

    I've wanted a FX Crown since the Mark II's came out. I had a hard time deciding between .22 and .25 caliber. Once I decided on .22 I couldn't find one in the Yellow Jacket laminated stock. I know it isn't everyones favorite, but I like it and that's what I wanted. After months of looking I...

    Newbie intro

    Hi, newbie here. I've had a Beeman R1 since 1983, but got my first PCP August 26. I got a 22 caliber Dreamline Classic with the walnut stock, Donny FL moderator and a Power Plenum from Ken at S.P.A.W. Ken set it up for JSB Hades at 892 fps. I've mounted a Burris Signature HD 3-15x44 scope in...
