    Texan .457 w/ .454 Slugs?

    PCP Noob w/ FX Impact Mk2 Questions

    Hello all! First time poster. I've been shooting with a break-barrel rifle for awhile but recently decided to take the plunge into PCP. I'm a tinkerer so I decided to get an FX Impact Mk2 since it seems like it has a lot of room for expansion as I grow with the gun -- though I plan to take it...
