    FX Impact - is it normal for telescopic shroud to touch the valve control knob?

    Valve is open past 4th line on a .22! Hmm ... That's not right. You should be getting 900-920fps on the 18gr at 130bar and no more past 3rd line max. Either reg is set lower or valvestem has screwed out a few threads.

    FX Impact should I enlarge .25 TP ?

    Did a similar mod last year on the .22 barrel. Enlarging TP and pellet probe hole lead to a plus of 17fps on the .22 JSB Monster 25.4g from 855fps to 872fps @150b. This with a 0.5mm increase as you've done. Without the stiffer and longer spring though. Did consider cone shaped TP (5mm...

    What is supposed to happen to accuracy if the shroud is removed?

    1. Remove the rail and check main plate screws for loose ones - if any are loose, then loosen them all, insert barrel and then tighten them all. 2. Check the Smooth Twist part of the barrel for machining issues 3. Get one size up o-rings in the bushings that barrel slides through I know you've...

    Problems with my fx impact .22 grouping over a inch at 50 yards

    hmm .. is the .25 probe and TP fully aligned as well? on mine, both .22 and .25 probes are marked at same spot when measuring the probe travel inside the breech. So if it was out on the .22 barrel, it would be out on .25 as well.

    Problems with my fx impact .22 grouping over a inch at 50 yards

    To rule out clipping, remove the shroud and shoot. Unless it is clipping heavily, it shouldn't be dropping 50fps when chrony is on the shroud itself (like the EdChrono) or just a few feet away. Also replace the breech o-ring along with the 2 outer o-rings on the .22 barrel. Outer are easiest so...

    Problems with my fx impact .22 grouping over a inch at 50 yards

    At that setting, either there's an issue with the rifle pushing 18gr at only 860fps or your chrony is knackered. At 150bar reg and max power, my Impact pushes 18gr at 980+

    .22 JSB Monster 25grain Pellets.

    Was comparing the skirt size of the new batch of 18.1gr and the 25.4g and found the monsters to be at least 0.05mm wider. Quick search on forum and came across resizing by @ajshoots of these so decided to a crude resizing of the skirts from avg 5.7mm down to 5.57mm and 5.53mm (pushing pellet...

    New/revised .22 JSB Heavies

    Not sure of my weighing machine but most ranged between 18.0 and 18.6gr. Head size is very consistent dropping through 5.53mm hole on pelletgage. Out of my Impact, these are giving one a tad bigger than pellet size hole groups between 870-880fps at 30m. Higher FPS the groups open up.

    New/revised .22 JSB Heavies

    It seems JSB has revised the .22 JSB Heavies (a new die). Fresh batch from JSB's EU distributor ... Left: New (25067616), Right: Older (25070016) The seller had 4 months waiting time for his order with the distributor so I think these must a fresh batch from factory. Head size from box is...

    Impact probe screw failure & solution

    Either the issue is in the quality of the set screws or in the machining. If the machined threads have tolerances exceeded then those will result in a 'loose' fit per-se and result in the set screw bending or worse sheering over time with the forces exerted on it. What Ernest said is correct on...

    Impact settings (Ted)

    Ted doesn't have to share anything however he did say he'll share a few things. If his word is anything to go by, he should share those things he said he would about the Impact specifically. As for when he would do that, up to him really. And congrats Ted. Well deserved for all the hard work...

    Fx Impact & Air-fective moderator.

    For hunting purposes AF setup on .25 is decent. For discrete backyard target shooting, I wouldn't recommend it unless Liam changes the internals of the moderator. After a lot of testing, for .25 all I can suggest is fabricating 2x 26mm OD/8mm bore plain baffles, some sound absorbing material...

    Fx Impact & Air-fective moderator.

    .22 setup I agree is a lot quieter as there is substantially more volume for air to be trapped, compared to the FX shroud. I reconfigured my .22 setup to make it even quieter. I don't have .30 so no comment.

    @ gan1hck ... yes, I'm sure, based on my testing and measurements. @ Neil ... finally you got hold of one! Looking forward to see your design

    Fx Impact & Air-fective moderator.

    If you want air-fective setup to be quieter, be prepared to work on the moderator internals yourself. In standard form, it won't be quieter than FX shroud setup .. specifically the .25.

    Question to anyone who may have broken down their Fx Impact

    Did the same on mine after around similar number of shots. Removed the trigger assembly, checked for damage (chipped edges etc of all parts), cleaned and then reassembled with first stage shortened. That fixed it.

    Fx impact Correction can one hole at 50 again!!

    Give the smooth twist section of the barrel a good clean, preferably with a soft brush to dislodge any lead at the start of the smooth twist. Eventual buildup of lead there will damage the head and skirt on the way out. If possible, push a pellet through and inspect the head and skirt. Also...

    Fx impact shroud

    Interesting. Either this shroud is screw on type with built in air stripper/muzzle-end in the middle somewhere for barrel end to screw in to or you are going to be surprised to receive only a blank shroud/hollow pipe .. Did AoA confirm that the shroud is a direct replacement for the telescopic...
