Fx Royal 500 or anonther Indy in 25?

1kshooter · Oct 31, 2017

I have a Indy in .22 and love the freedom from the pump but as my shots are generally at 60 plus yards on pigeons I was hoping that the extra mass and higher bc would help dealing with the wind and anchor birds better that are not perfectly hit.
any thoughts on these two guns?

Both are excellent choices. I think it might boil down to the refilling of the 500. I don't recall if you have a filling setup or not. You'll drop a LOT of weight going with the 500 and that would probably make it a little nicer to walk around with. The .25 will definitely buck the wind better and carries more knock down power.

If you're hand pumping.... whoo! I think pumping up a CF bottle will get real old REAL quick! If that's the case, I steer you towards the Indy.

I have to say it really depends on your physical shape, i'm 19 and i've been filling a 480cc cf bottle up to 250bar for a year now and still running strong. Fx Turbo hand pump has helped me quite a bit. In my case i would go for the Royale
