I would be inclined to buy 2-3 different slugs in the weight range you want to shoot. If they don’t perform to. Your satisfaction with the standard liner try the slug liner and higher speed. Somewhere in that mix you should find a combination that works. When I first started shooting slugs 3...

As a courtesy to a fellow member, I would suggest not holding your breath for the arrival of the Halo. FX has a very bad habit of hype and hold.

I love to shoot longer distances. Beer cans etc are all potential victims. My longest beer kill to date is 250 yards. Last year I killed a ground squirrel at 205, at least that is what the range finder said. Took two shots because I miscalculated the wind hold. This year I finally got a...

My favorite is when they say the wind is messing with their shots and the leaves and grass are not even moving

An air gun for SHTF? I will take this question up right after I figure out what I would do when the zombies show up for real.

When I bought my Panthera I was skeptical of the gauge location. Having owned it a little over a year now I have grown quite fond of the location. No need to come off the gun to check them. I have a bipod on my gun all the time and so there is no reason to lay it on its side unless it is in the...

My wife was not understanding of why we shoot tree rats. Then two of them set up house in the engine compartment of one of my business vehicles this winter and chewed a bunch of wiring costing some significant $ to rectify. Now they are shoot on sight to her. It is all about perspective

I am an Impact shooter. Have two. Do you plan on shooting slugs or pellets? If pellets there are a number of other guns that shoot pellets as well as an Impact. Want to shoot slugs? Then any of the FX high power guns are your best bet. FX does slug guns. Slug shooting is not an aside for FX as...

I run four pointers in the high desert around here. Rattle snakes are given no quarter. Some well meaning people have told me that I am wasting my time because you cannot kill them all. No you cannot but you can reduce the chance of a dog running afoul of one of them. I have nothing against...

I can’t give you a tune, but maybe a starting point. 120 bar on the reg. Set the power wheel to about halfway and forget it. Then set your micro wheel to about 2.5. Shoot a string and check velocity. Then move the micro wheel two clicks and check velocity again. If it increases, repeat the...

My suggestion for any new M3 buyer is that no matter what you plan to shoot out of it, buy 1000 pellets and just shoot it. It will take that many to break it in and let it settle. Given a convenient air source you can shoot 1000 pellets in no time at all. Then buy pellets in a couple weights...

Born a hunter. I would hunt house flies if that were all that was left. Shooting paper is a necessity that is kept to a minimum for me. I have been an archer for over 50 years. When I was younger and compound bows were a very new thing (yeah that was a long time ago) we all shot recurve and long...

There is no air gun that lives up to what is presented on YouTube every day with every gun the factory ships. I am a dedicated FX shooter and cut my air gun teeth with a Maverick. After almost 3 years I will state that the Maverick, Panthera family and Impact are NOT new shooter products. Are FX...

You would need a vacuum gauge to measure the suck of my off hand shooting ability. I have been using some sort of aid for 30+ years when hunting with PB rifle. I adhere to the ethics of a humane harvest. Bipods and cross sticks are not for extending my range so much as it is to ensure a properly...

As a retailer UA is very good. I use them quite a bit. The access to a tech is what I miss. I have made three attempts to talk with a tech @ UA, was told they would call me back all three times. I was never called back. I assume the addition of being a distributor has them over loaded right now...

Remember the good ol days? A direct phone number and a relatively short wait and you were talking to a tech about your issue. They were always and I mean always patient and helpful. I remember being told to not worry about bugging them. They liked shooters who tinkered and fixed their on guns...

I wonder how many of us would have opted for a springer or just stayed out of the air gun game had we known about the tribulations of looking for a reasonable cost air source? Had I know that by the time I finally solved my air supply issue I would have spent the equivalent of an Alpha Wolf and...

Airmalks Krait with the 400mm barrel, bottle version or save a few $ and get the tube version. I am waiting for the bottle version in 22 to become available again.

I just went through this two weeks ago with my Maverick. The above posted video is the easiest way to check or set your probe alignment. Loosen the two grub screws in your linkage block for the cocking rod. Make sure the cocking lever is all the way forward and stays that way through the...

I hope you can get it high enough. I could not and ended up changing my original scope and rings trying to lower the scope enough for the max height on the BB. I never got it where I wanted it but it is close enough that I make it work.
