Hey Tigerhunter, what are you using to lube yer pellets/slugs?
As for the FX Hybrid .25
There is a lot of interesting opinions about FX and their marketing tactics. I gotta be honest, I agree with some, that being said, I have shot the FX Hybrids out of my Dreamline, about 200 rounds so far and Im not impressed. It has been my experience that 905 fps was the sweet spot for me but even then the groups were terribly at 50 yards. Anything faster than that would through my accuracy off. And the accuracy is only "okay" to begin with. I got them to shoot 5 rounds literally through the same hole at 25 yards, then I shot a 5 shot group of pred polymags without adjusting anything on the rifle, go back to the FX Hybrids and the groups at 25 yards were 1" wide. Maybe my barrel needs a clean?
It also appeared to me that the slugs wern't the greatest fit and finish, they seemed loose when chambering and there were too many fliers IMO.
I plan to swap the pellet liner to the slug liner and trey the other 150 slugs I have left. we will see what happens.
Here is a picture of my group and accuracy test at 50 yards, 905fps out of my Dreamline w/ pellet liner. I was on a bench, very stable and steady.
