    Most variety of diameters only in .22 - why is that? And why undersized?

    Why is it that in “.22” cal, most major manufacturers offer .217 and .218 (so they’re undersized quite a bit, and Nielsen goes all the way from .216 up to .219, yet in .25 it’s mainly .25 only, with a few .249 (under), or a big jump to .253 (over). In .30, that’s it, with patriot and Nielsen...

    FX Tensioned barrel for impact m4?

    Tensioned barrels sound like a wonderful idea, but don’t fit the M4….i know Viking air gunner is using one by removing the side picatinny rails on the m4. I believe the 4 also has locating pins on the barrel block and the 3 doesn’t. Any word on FX (or anyone else) making a tensioned barrel block...

    FX How many rings…..

    How many o rings are SUPPOSED to be on an Fx liner. At what spacing, and what size are they? I just swapped liners on my 700 .22 impact - there where only two o rings…. And I’ve seen videos of guys pulling 3-4 out when changing out. I would think the more there are, the more stable the liner...

    Informal comparison of arken epl-4, athlon Midas tac 6-24 and 5-25 ffp scopes

    I recently acquired those 3 scopes for a shoot out (pun intended). I rushed out the Arken fairly quickly - while the clarity was good, I couldn’t stand the grub-screw turret zero, and found that if I zeroed for 50 yards, I didn’t have clicks for 100, which was pretty strange. Could have been...

    FX M4 1st reg add?

    How has the m4 single reg been working out for folks? Is it as consistent as the m3, given the higher pressure differential? Anyone adding a front reg back in? Matt

    Air Venturi Avenge-X reg issues

    I’m on my second avenge-X now - first one had crazy reg creep and a shifted barrel, this one still does crazy reg creep….anyone else experiencing this? I have the reg ‘nominally’ set to 175 bar. With a full tank, after a shot, the reg will recover to 175, then creep up 10 bar within a minute or...

    scope rings for fx m4

    3 issues for discussion - heights, and cantilevers, and prices Height - I'm looking at either a 50 or 56mm objective scope; it looks like the scope rail on the m4 would allow you to use any height rings, as the bell is well clear of the barrel/backbone in any case. What's the general consensus...

    Air Venturi Avenge-X balance - tube vs bottle

    I picked up a wood classic avenge -X a few weeks back. Love the gun, but mine had a couple of defects, so it’s going back. I’m replacing it with the wood/bottle version. I found the tube to be fairly nose heavy. From the looks of things, the bottle is lighter, and sits further back. Has anyone...
