On my new sniper the gauge reads 20# lower after fill with new air venturi tank. my fill tank press shows 220 bar and FX shows 200 bar. New rifle only 2nd fill o date.
could FX gauge be off that much?

It's definitely possible.
Always go with the gauge that reads highest to be on the safe side.

If the gun is still in warranty contact FX. They’re pretty good if you have a problem or a new gun.

Stock FX gauges are notoriously inaccurate 10 to 20 bar on their pressure readings. Several years and several FX airguns in my arsenal to backup this claim. Swap those FX gauges out with better quality Wika gauges. Always one of the first upgrades done to all my FX’s. Great airguns otherwise but the gauges don’t cut the mustard.
Huma-air Wika gauges operate like a Swiss Watch, are accurate, and last virtually forever! Just a suggestion..

FX USA will take care of your gauges. I know from personal experience. Both my Impact MK2 and my Crown MK2 had faulty gauges. They were indeed off by over 20 BAR. Both times I contacted FX USA and they replaced the gauges under warranty. They handled it quickly and I was very satisfied. However, I would prefer if they would just use better quality gauges from the start and charge us a little more.
