Hello.
I bought my FX Wildcat around 4 years ago and have shot it quite a lot. I love the trigger, which I have myself adjusted to slow climb first stage and then no climb break. Maybe 3-6K ammo or more through it. Broke my ankle this spring and only now got around to shooting it again.
I checked the bore and while it was in good condition, it had some quite heavy lead build ups.
I have chronoed it with JSB King 16 grainers and readings are below.
-I think it has a little bit too big ES. The accuracy was decent however. I hope the velocity will tighten when I have scrubbed the lead off. We shall see.

I just shot it yesterday and it was quite accurate. I wish I have had the patience to set the chrono but it was raining etc..
