NEW ACCESSORIES: One month with the FX Dream-Pup and a couple thousand rounds later... Funny how I seem to come up with good ideas away from my airgun, at work, analyzing the shooting experience in my mind. Smartphones just make it too easy to order airgun stuff online. Anyways, I wasn’t comfortable with the Dream-Pups “length of pull” for
my arm length. Felt like I was drawing the bullpup too close and it didn’t feel natural and comfortable when holding at various shooting positions. So, I added a length of pull or shoulder pad extension. aka. FX Wildcat stock double magazine holder. So much more comfortable and natural length of pull for me. Also changed out the Hawke Sidewinder FFP’s parallax side-focus wheel to a sleeker 2.5 inch wheel with custom field-tested yardage labels. Check these pictures out.
NEW TUNE: The idea... Shoot JSB 25.39 Re-designed Monsters at a useable speed. Wasn’t satisfied with 775 FPE @ 33.87 a little slow for flat shooting out to 50 yards( my preference). Let me just add that the FX Dreamline’s external tuning capabilities make tuning so much easier than the old way of tearing a gun all the way down. At most all I’ve done is remove the stock to get at the goodies, which is only one screw on the Dream-Pup. Ultimately I had to raise my regulator pressure to 140 bar, adjust the hammer tension in some ( knob on MAX ), and switch the transfer port to .25/.30. Results, roughly 810 FPS @ 36 - 37 FPE, 45 shots per fill at this tune! Flat shooting with a 20 yard zero shooting out to 50 yards, just 10 clicks up on the Sidewinder’s elevation turret! Just as accurate ( maybe more ) than JSB Heavy 18.13’s. See pics:
16 shot string with JSB 25.39 Re-Designed Monsters:
Here is the beauty of the FX Dreamline’s design. If l want to return to my most used tune for JSB Heavy 18.13’s it’s easy. Just dial my transfer port back to .177/.22, dial the hammer spring adjuster knob back to “A”, and click my Sidewinder elevation back down 10 clicks to it’s true zero. Like magic! Shooting JSB18.13’s @ 930 FPS for 34 FPE. 50 shots per fill. Picture and 16 shot string below. I think the AMP regulator is broken in shot strings are ridiculously tight!
