What’s the first thing most of us do to make a gun shoot “better”? But a new barrel on it? What kind of barrel? I don’t know of a single individual that went thinner and more flexible. Some have gone with carbon fiber to stiffen and keep the weight down but if we assume heavy stiff barrels work with powder burners is there a debate here for air rifles? I understand the reasons for what FX is doing but it seems contrary to me if the goal is ultimate accuracy.
i have an FX impact II. It’s a nice gun. Shoots reasonably well for me. And yes it can be both challenging and frustrating. I’m convinced the gun could be made to shoot a lot better if the barrel was heavier and SCREWED into place. You could still have interchangeable barrels and yes it would be MUCH more expensive . However if accuracy is the goal this harmonic tuning is NUTS. Or so it seems to me
I shoot a lot too. It’s not unusual to shoot 50 to 100 pellets at a time. The frustrating part of this is that it’s not unusual to have little or no concrete conclusions after doing so. Can you imagine doing that with another fire arm? We should not have to do this to “tune” an air rifle. Or should we ?
