    N/A A Concise Guide to Airgun Tuning?

    Is there a concise guide to regulated PCP airgun tuning out there anywhere? Preferably something written rather than in video format.

    PCP Rifle FX Impact X & Aztec 5.5-25x50 Scope

    I have this Impact X for sale with an Aztec 5.5-25x50 SFP MOA scope and three magazines. Basically what you see, including the case (not the table underneath though). The rifle currently shoots JSB 18 grain pellets at about 890fps and generates some tight groups. It just hasn't been my go-to...

    FX How do you use your power wheel?

    How do you use the power wheel on your FX PCP airgun (Impact, Crown, etc…) with multiple settings? Or maybe the question is ‘do you ever use….? I’m not sure I fully understand the point of them yet. I have only gone through the tuning process on an Impact X and the video I watched only talked...

    Hill MK4 Hose Leak & Idea

    The hose on my Hill MKIV pump is leaking. The leak is coming from the area pointed out by the red arrow. I'm thinking the blue arrow probably points to an o-ring and I'll bet that's what failed. The pump is a few years old but doesn't have much use on it. Is there a possibility of fixing this...

    Light Slugs in a Pellet Barrel?

    Is it worth trying a lightweight slug (20-23 grain in .22) in a pellet barrel for 75-100 yard targets? Or is it always better to get a slug specific barrel?

    FX What should I do with an Impact X?

    I have an Impact X in .22 that I bought to try a few different things. The idea was to try different calibers (.30?) and/or slugs and try to gain some understanding of tuning an airgun. In 2022 I tried to order two different plenum upgrades that never seemed to materialize. After several months...

    Did I buy the Wrong Compressor?

    My first PCP was an FWB P8X. When I bought that pistol I also purchased a Hill multi-stage hand pump. That combo worked fine at first. When I started acquiring rifles with higher volume cylinders it seemed like a good time to get a powered compressor. I ended up getting the Hill EC-3000. The...

    Scope Recommendations for a Versatile Airgun?

    What scope (brand & power) would you put on an FX Crown with the potential to run two barrels - .22 and .177? Use would be 25, 50 or 100 yard benchrest in .22 and FT with the .177 barrel. Or would you swap scopes for each use?

    FX Leaky FX Streamline Questions

    I have an FX Streamline that I bought used that has started leaking from the vent hole at the rear of the cylinder. I think I have identified what needs to be replaced. My problem is that the cylinder doesn't want to come off. All of the pressure has been thoroughly bled out of the cylinder but...

    Benjamin Marauder Modification Questions

    I bought a .177 Marauder F&T version last year as sort of a backup/lightweight to complement my FWB P70FT. The Mrod shoots very well but that trigger is kind of ridiculous. I keep meaning to modify it but I still have a couple of questions that I can't find answers to by searching. 1. Do I...

    Tuning FX Impact oddities

    I have a couple of strange things going on with a used FX Impact that I purchased recently. I think it's a MK1. It doesn't say MKII on it and it certainly doesn't say M3 anywhere. There are some little differences from pictures I'm finding but generally what I'm seeing aligns with an MK1...
