    cleaning barrel on FX Wildcat mk1

    After a few hundred rounds my accuracy degrades & I can see a build up of lead on the smooth twist. So, I scrub the last few inches of the barrel with JB non-embedding bore paste from the muzzle end. Works fine.

    Ballistic app

    I use both StrelokPro and ChairGun Pro. Strelok for the powder burners and ChairGun for the air rifles. Sadly, ChairGun is no longer supported by Hawke. I really like the projectile graph and overlay capabilities in ChairGun.

    To me "failed" means broken and will not function. Tom - Do you mean failure as in broken and will not function? Or do you mean "failed" as in "it did not meet my expectations"?

    Which Moderator?

    I have a Weihrauch on a 15 ft-lb Marauder pistol and it is very backyard capable - per ft-lb it might be the best in my stable.

    I went to the range the other day thinking I had my Atlas attached to my Wildcat. Turns out the Wildcat was wearing one of my Atlas rip-offs from Utah Airguns. For range trips the clones are fine - the Wildcat was perfect. Nevertheless, in my opinion the Atlas is a superior product in fit...

    I have the Jefferson State Air Rifles aluminum air tube. It makes a remarkable difference in overall weight & balance.

    Need Advice

    Thinking you want her in a PCP, so this suggestion may not fit. Put her in an HW30. She will be able to cock and shot that rifle well. My girls started on an HW30 at roughly the same age. If she looses interest, you still have a great gun at a reasonable price.

    any one tuning the mrod with the new ss balanced valve ( to regulate or Not ??

    Thanks for the rely Scott! Please don't misunderstand....I totally believe the conclusions, I just wanted a bit more detail. I managed 24 shots at an average 852 fps (41 fpe for 25.9g JSB) with an ES of 24 fps on my gen 1 SS valve. The ES is 7 fps for the first 21 shots, so I think the gen 1...

    Hello jmmartinez573. Hoping you might have additional information on why the generation 1 SS valve is best unregulated. Any thoughts or guidance is appreciated. Thanks.

    Slow Build Marauder vs FX Dreamline

    Great comments by everyone! I'll simply add another point of view. I have all three caliber Marauders and an FX Wildcat. All four rifles are really fun to shoot and all make me smile:) If you want to go "one gun and done" get an FX. My Wildcat is so sweet to shoot...trigger, accuracy...

    Is it really worth suppressing a break barrel?

    I find the HW moderator for the HW30 works well. BTW, Mk12mod1 is a cool user name.

    My Scope question could beat a dead horse.

    Under 20 ounces might be the most difficult criteria at a 42-44mm objective. Bushnell 6500 Elite in 42 mm objective meets your specs but is out of production - I think replaced by the Engage. So you might have already found what you need. BTW, great post. I feel your pain:)

    FX Airguns - Notice

    It is too bad these companies have parted ways, but I'm not sure this matters to us consumers. Now there are plenty of sources for FX products and it doesn't matter where you buy because the prices are pretty much identical. As others have mentioned, price have been constant for some time. ...

    Nomad compressor or Great White tank

    Hi tyfo. The output pressure of the Nija CF bottles can be increased with additional shims (or thinker shims). As you mention, you still won't get 6-8 fills out of a bottle but at least you will get a few full fills. I find that to be enough air for a trip to the range. Hope this helps.
