FX Impact X .25 Data Request

[bdzjlz]

I am weighing the advantages and disadvantages of a Daystate Redwolf vs an FX Impact X with the new 700mm barrel. I understand the major function differences such as the electronic trigger on the Daystate and the interchangeability and total adjustment versatility of the FX.

My questions for those of you with the FX this morning are:

• What is the twist rate of the smooth twist barrel, for Strelok purposes?
• What have you determined the best velocity to be to produce the ultimate accuracy with the JSB 33.95 pellets at 100 yards? 
• Which is better - the MK I or MKII pellets?
• What is the ballistic co-efficient with this set-up?
• What size of groups are you consistently able to achieve at 50 yards and 100 yards?
• Finally, it doesn't look like single shot loading of the FX is an option. Is this true?

For the owners of both Redwolf's and Impacts, what led you to make your purchase decision and would you do anything different knowing what you know now?



Thank you in advance for your replies.

Good luck with that, most will tell you every gun is different and is treated differently pellets, speed, group size (depends on shooter), etc. At best both guns have the ability to be great with the right ammo and setup. Good luck.

as for the single shot tray, i highly recommend this one. i have the left side one. works great.

As for pellets, I understand the Impact was designed around the 25 grain JSB's. I use the MK1 and MK2 pellets, they are very accurate, but I haven't seen a huge difference yet.

I use the 600mm barrel, so not sure if that can be extrapolated to the 700
