    Child shot in the chest w/ BB gun dies

    https://www.wyff4.com/article/child-dies-bb-gun-shooting-anderson-1641414582/38677914 How is this even possible??? I have several of the 'better' BB guns and I just don't see how there's enough energy to penetrate. I can see a .30 cal FX Impact killing something, but a BB gun??? This...

    Tuning my .177 R5M Edgun to high speed w/ heavy slugs

    I know I've seen along the way threads where folks talk about 20gr slugs at 950fps from a .177 R5M Edgun long. I think I want to do this to mine. Right now it's tuned for field target 20fpe and is accurate to 50yds. . Can anyone aide me in doing this? I've never needed to take my edgun...

    Did the forum get an upgrade? Seems faster

    Did the forum get a lot faster or is it just me? Like zero lag now.

    Impact, Huma transfer port, how do I get the barrel off w/o damaging it?

    I just got the new Huma transfer port and am trying to get the old one off the barrel w/o damaging it. Not having any luck using my hands to unscrew it. Anyone got any suggestions?

    Looking for a good bag for this tank

    Something to protect it that won't break the bank. I'm sure I've seen some of you with bags these tanks fit in. Anyone care to share links?

    Missing our shooting club

    About once a month a bunch of us get together in Cross, SC and shoot the whole day. It's a 3hr drive for me and I get up at the crack of dawn and go, don't get home till 9-10pm. Totally worth it. I love going. This coronavirus thing has been a real Debbie Downer on our gathering. I've...

    Latest upgrade to my Impact

    I got hooked up with Neil Clague a while back and he made me an LDC for my .45 Winchester. One thing led to another and I had him make me a short LDC for my .30 Impact. Then there was a discussion about an integrated shroud and LDC. It finally arrived today and I think it not only looks...

    FX announces the New Impact MKII w/ a .35 800mm barrel, 580cc bottle, upgradable

    I saw on Facebook that FX just dropped the news on the new .35. I did look here and didn't see a discussion, so I thought I'd start one. 800mm barrel, 915fps w/ an 82gr pellet Comes with the 580cc bottle too. They say that all the other barrels are compatible, so we could see some serious...

    I gotta do something with this HW98, it's a bloody scattergun

    I'd sort of pushed this gun to the back of the safe because it performed terribly, but now that I'm 'in the zone' with my Impact, I'd like to dust the '98 off and and figure out why it's so bad. It's a beautiful .22, no question, a real eye catcher. It's just got horrible accuracy. At 50yds...

    Neighbor kid claims his new Gamo Whisper Fusion Elite does 1050fps.

    The Neighbor kid claims his new Gamo Whisper Fusion Elite does 1050fps. He's a really good kid, but I think he's getting bad info or marketing hype. I told him to bring it over and we'd put it over the chrony. For reference, my megabuck tuned HW98 isn't even pushing 700fps. It's really...

    HOT Impact flinging slugs. What's your favorite .30 gr?

    I've got this .30 Impact setup for flinging slugs now and it's doing a phenomenal job IMHO. It's been worked over pretty good, but is just a humble gen 1. Ernest did the port work and as you can see it's got the big bottle and 700mm slug barrel. It will go into FX to get the new plenum...

    800FPE!! I might just have to have one of these

    Does FX make a longer case?

    I have an original Impact that up until I got the 700mm barrel fit in the case nicely w/o disassembly. Now, not so much. I have to take the LDC off and there's only 1.25" left I'm planning on a custom LDC/Shroud from Neil and want a case where I don't have to disassemble the gun to...

    Impact: New 700mm barrel, no locking dimple for the setscrew.

    I got a new barrel for my 'old' Impact. There's no setscrew dimple for locking the barrel in place? Am I supposed to take a drill to this brand new $450 barrel? Thanks in advance

    .30 Slugs

    I have finally found enough stores to shop at so I can get a 580cc bottle, 700mm barrel and a slug liner. Finally all of them are in stock and on the way to upgrade Thumper Thumper has enough air 'n flow to toss a 44.75gr JSB at 1000fps w/ the reg set at 155b and power wheel on max. I had...

    .30 Impact, turned reg down, speed and accuracy went up. Huh?

    I love my Impact, but of late it's gotten a lot of tune improvements (1000fps stuff), but the accuracy has not been there. I attributed this to too high a velocity on the JSB 44.75gr pellet. Today a friend of mine came over and we did some shooting so I figured perfect time to try some...

    Impact accuracy not so hot

    I've got this .30 Impact I've had for years. It was just before the STX came out. I was never all that impressed with the fps (in the 840s) but it was laser beam accurate out to 75yds. It struggled at 100yds. I did the Long Ranger Challenge with it at 175 yards. Since then it's made a...

    Impact 'puff on the cheek' leak

    Thought someone else might run into this problem so I figured I'd share it and the solution. My Impact has been back and forth to FX several times now fixing leaks and upgrading it. Recently got it back and pretty quickly I got the 'puff on the cheek' leak again. Thought it was a breech...
