    Benjamin hand pump high pressure o-ring replacement question.

    I have a Benjamin hand pump that recently failed. I purchased a Captain O-ring replacement kit for it. Tear down went relatively smooth. When I removed the high pressure rod I found a broken white opaque ring that fell out when the rod was removed, a black O-ring was still intact. Looking at...

    FX Dreamline sideshot magazines

    I have a new FX Dreamtac Compact that, other than some small issues zeroing in a new scope, I’m impressed with so far. Very accurate, great trigger, smooth action. I like the simplicity and high capacity (18 shot in 22 cal) of the sideshot magazines. Very quick and easy to load. However, I’m...

    Leupold scope not sighting in on FX Dreamtac compact

    I just set up a new FX Dreamtac Compact 22 with a new Leupold Mark AR 4-12x40 scope using Burris XTR signature rings. The XTR rings have inserts to adjust for MOA. The closest to neutral was a pair of ‘0’ rings in the front, and a +5 top -5 bottom in the rear. I assumed both were ‘0’ rings...

    Over sizing moderator gauge to safeguard from clipping

    I’m considering a moderator for my stock PROD. I read in another thread about upsizing gauge (.25 vs. 22 caliber opening). Maybe avert clipping on accidental double load? Does this somewhat defeat the moderator effectiveness? Can you remove the PROD fill cap with a cone adapter? Considering...

    FX Dreamline Pup vs. Wildcat II barrel support

    The Wildcat II ties the barrel and the cylinder together with the scope rail mount. The Dreamline has both the barrel and rail mount floating with no support tie bars to the barrel. The Wildcat seems a much more robust approach for both the scope and barrel rigidity. Is this due to the...

    FX Dreamline Tactical Compact

    https://fxairguns.com/rifles/dreamline-tactical/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pQfskOcoNU Just joined the forum today. I currently have a Benjamin NP2 and a Benjamin PROD and I've been researching a 'higher end' PCP in 22 cal. and have somewhat settled on FX. I was convinced I was...
