Hi All,
I'm new to PCP air guns, but I have been shooting for about 32 years. I've had several spring piston rifles, but would like to take a step or two up. I'm trying to figure out exactly what I need at the moment, so I'm hoping some with more experience can help guide me. So far, my cart contains:
FX Impact M3 .30 (standard)
Hill MK5 pump
FX .30 cal 44 gr pellets
Saber Tactical extended rail
I plan to shoot slugs, but want to take some time to research them first. I picked the 44.75 grain pellets because it seems to be the closest in weight to some of the slug offerings from FX and Neilson. As for optics, I plan to possibly take a scope off one of my rifles and swap them around. I have a Leupold Mark 5 that might fit the bill, depending on what magnification range I settle on. My main questions are, whether or not I need anything else with the pump to use on the tank the M3 comes with, and whether or not I need the slug power kit as well for a .30 cal. Thank you all in advance for taking the time to read this and for any words of wisdom you might be able to provide.
