    Shooting Slugs for Accuracy Velocity and/or Twist rate.

    I have an FX Crown MKI .25 that I have been trying to shoot slugs as accurate as I can. Most of what I've read mentions more velocity with slugs for the best accuracy. My tune is maxed out for the most velocity I can get at 145 bar is 850 fps. I'm presently shooting NSA 33.5 grain slugs with...

    Air lost after filling gun.

    I have a 45 minute SCBA tank with a 40 inch microbore hose. Once the guns tank is filled and the SCBA valve is closed and the valve to take the air pressure out of the micro hose is opened there is a lot of wasted air. If I had a 20 inch microbore hose instead, would there be much savings of...

    How to Improve My FX Crown MKI for slugs

    Tumbling and washing NSA slugs

    I read a reply back from NSA on a previous post on lubing NSA slugs, where they said they tumble slugs after forming, then sonic clean, and finally tumble again with silicon lube. Yesterday I went to try out for the first time a box of .25 cal. 36.2 grain slugs. I was shooting them straight...

    All my slugs track to the right

    I installed a 600mm FX Superior liner for my .25 cal. Crown last summer, and started trying slugs for the first time. I've only shot NSA slugs and FX Hybrid. I bought the NSA variety pack to try different weights, and finally settled with the 33.5 grain for their grouping. My question is, do...

    FX Crown power wheel

    I've had my .25 cal Crown for some time now and have tuned it with various H&N pellets and JSB MKII and Kings. I have only used the number side of the wheel, but I've noticed there may need to be a finer hammer spring adjustment to get the best tune, so I want to include the Letter side of...

    Is washing pellets always necessary?

    My previous pcp I had settled on H & N Match to be the most accurate pellet. I was washing and lubing those pellets, and would find many small pieces of lead slag in the bottom of the pot after washing, so I really considered washing a good thing. Now I am shooting an FX Crown and I'm shooting...

    FX Crown magazine

    I have not seen this mentioned before, and maybe I'm trying to do something that isn't possible, but I have been trying to fill up a Crown magazine that had only been partially emptied when I removed it from my rifle. The only way I have figured out to fill the magazine is by emptying all the...

    Need help determining reticle adjusting problem

    I have a new scope that came with free mounts that I put on my FX Crown today and I can't get the reticles adjusted to the target.

    Anyone shooting the FX Wildcat MK II .25cal with the Smooth Twist X liner?

    I'm trying to make a decision on buying the FX Streamline .25 cal or the FX Wildcat MK II .25 cal. I've never had a bullpup before, but the bottom line for me is accuracy at 50+ yds. I will do most of my shooting off a bi pod. The Smooth Twist X liner I believe is very new, and I haven't...

    Weighing .22 cal. Baracuda Match pellets.

    I have a Hatsan AT 44 QE .22 cal. that I have been shooting since last summer. After experimenting with many different pellets, I came to the conclusion that H&N Baracuda Match 21.14 g @ 5.53 head size gave me the best accuracy. I do almost all my shooting from a bi pod bench rest at 50 yds. ...

    I have had my first SCBA tank and hose assembly for only a few months now. I have been recharging my rifle after shooting about 10 shots each time. There seems like there is a lot of wasted air in the micro-bore hose each time the bleeder is opened. The hose assembly I have is 40" long, which...

    Pellet speed vs accuracy questions

    I'm fairly new in the air gun world to understanding the relationship in velocity of different caliber and weights of pellets and how they effect accuracy. I've only owned my first PCP air rifle for 3 months where it is possible to change the hammer spring pressure, which will effect velocity. ...
