Hello all, I am new here. I recently inherited an HW55. I am very familiar with firearms but know very little about air rifles.

What would be a fair price for a rifle like this? I know there are different values based on the stock style and the other variations. The rifle does operate and shoot pellets and the locking lever is nice and snug however mechanically I don't know much more than that about it. Visually it is in very very nice shape. Let me know your thoughts. Thank you very much

Hi guys, wanted to share my journey with my FX Impact m3. I bought it at the end of last summer, it is a 177 with a 600 barrel running a stock tune. I bought it mainly to plink at 50-200m, as well as pest control on my farm. I'm shooting JBS diabo match exact heavies, 10.34gr as I have a bunch of packs sitting around. I do plan on tuning it but Id like to understand and see what the stock tune is capable of first.


My first time shooting it was a little bit of a let down, 1.5-2.5" groups at 50 yards, just under 1" at 30 yards. I called the dealer and they said it will take acouple hundred rounds to settle in. I did a bit more shoot, mostly pest control and I feel its more than accurate for hunting. I didn't shot any more paper last year, I've got a 6.5cd that gets most my attention when it comes to precision work. Anyways, I figured with the nice weather I'd spend some time with the impact, and if i can get it shooting nicely Ill invest in a couple other barrel/liners. It would be cool to shoot 22 and 30 cal slugs.

I filled it last night to 220 bar last night, by the morning it was at 195 tank pressure, but the 1st reg ad crept up to 170 (from a stock 150). I noticed the second had crept up to 95 from I believe 85 stock.

Today we had zero wind so I figured it would be a good day to get out for some shooitng. The first 3 shots where between 989 and 978, then it settle around 962 to 970 with he odd shot between 949 and 953. First couple groups where around 2" at 50m shooting from a bench with front and rear bags. Eventually things settled and I shot 10, 5 shot groups between 1.5" to 5/8". I also noticed after a couple of shot the 1st reg also reset to 155.

My 22 produces 1/4" or tighter at 50m so I am confident this is not user error (I am a competent shooter with a military background).




Is this normal?
I was expecting groups under 1/2" at 50m without much difficulty, are my expectations out of unrealistic?
Would this be regulator creep and is this covered under my warranty?
Any suggestion?
Also, when I go to tune it, should I start with the valve adjuster fully open or keep it where it is?


Thanks, K

. Skout Epoch factory weight
. Moderator adapter
. 25 inch .30 cal barrel and shroud

I'm practically giving this aways, so there will be no negotiating.
If interested, give me a call at 513-479-3630 I'm sure it will not last long.
The scope is not included in this deal.

It finally happened!



Does this mean I'm like royalty now? I think I should be knighted!



22 regulated huntsman revere from AoA.

What optic should I adorn her with?

Just as the title says. Great condition m3 (pre power block). Never leaked and shoots very accurately. Have 3 mags, extended fill adapter, sehkmet digital gauge on reg and factory hardcase. Looking for 1450 shipped. Generally can only ship first part of the week due to my schedule.

Like new .22 Pathfinder. It was purchased new in April, I am the second owner. I recently purchased a Vet 1 and find I just don't shoot the Pathfinder enough to keep it. Comes with four 3d printed magazines, original mag, and single shot loader. Regulator is set at 115 bar and gets over 100 shots on a 250 bar
fill. Shoots FX 16's at 725 fps. I was shooting it at mostly 20-30 yds. and found that Crosman 14.3 hp's also shoot really well at that range. They average about 770 fps. Scope and rings not included but can be for additional $$$
Will ship in a hard case as seen in the pictures.
Price $1400 shipped CONUS, Pay Pal F&F or buyer pays fee.

Again, this is intended for the newbie members and uncommitted visitors. This is to break the ice and not feel alienated upon using the forum initially.

Looking to pick up a stock of 22 pellets and slugs and before I click the buy now button I wanted to ask the group-

Where is the best place to buy pellets and slugs? Best prices? Fastest shipping?

Thanks!!!

I've had my RAW HM1000x chassis in .177 cal built by Martin Rutterford at Airguns-USA now for three weeks. I tested it at my local range and shot an EBR target with a score of 214 using Zan 13.4 gr slugs at 1010 fps. This encouraged me to use it at the next match.

Match day, the weather in Sparta was perfect. Light winds and 80 degree temperature. There were 15 seasoned competitors there using Red Pandas, Skouts, FX Mavericks, Impacts, Pantheras and Crowns. I was the only guy with a RAW. Two others showed up to shoot in the .177 class just to see how it went. One man had a Maverick and the other a Delta Wolf. The rest were shooting the usual .22, .25, and .30 rifles. Targets were 100 yard EBR.

We shot two relays and my scores were 182 and 211. The 211 should have been a 220, but I lost count of where I was and missed one bull and put two 9s in the next one. I also shot three relays with my Impact MK2 in .22 but my scores were so-so. I did qualify for the finals and was going to use the Impact, but a friend urged me to use the .177 RAW. I came in third with a 211 which pleased me very much. This was better than any other match I've shot here. I usually shoot Impacts in .22 and .30 cal. We were all humbled, however, by a young lady that won with a Crown .22 cal with a score of 222. Congratulations, Anna.

Bottom line? I think the .177 cal rifles are very capable of competing against larger calibers up to 100 yards. This was an interesting experiment to say the least. Did I say I really like my RAW rifle??

My current FX DRS is shooting extremely well. 880 FPS with JSB 18.13
Always around 210 BAR it fires one shot over 1100FPS then goes back to normal.
Played with hammer tension and moved reg between 120-140 and nothing changes.

Any thoughts?

I’m a fan of Hawke scopes but in the dark on the optics for pistols.
Is this a good match for an HW44
Thanks

Practically new bipod just no box. It’s been in the safe used once. Im
Not a bench shooter so bipods are pointless for me I just use bags. Asking $300 shipped PayPal f&f.

I was thinking of buying a 500mm .22cal barrel kit for my crown MKII and was wondering if anyone had shot this particular setup and would care to comment. No moderators allowed here so any additional comments on the report would be welcomed.

Some PEST night hunting with fx impact .35. Shooting hybrids at 1000fps.Using the Rattler TS35-384. 50 yards. Vitals shot on a coon and skunk. And a bonus mouse lol

Is buying from the GX website safe? Seems like they are, or at least the pump I am looking at, is cheaper on the GX website.

Tony of talon tunes posting the Vulcan 3 video on his advert post. This was the video from Steve AVS with my gun couple years ago. We were early acquirers of the platform. We never achieved top tuning before I was forced to sell via economic reasons. Now both myself and Steve are definitely supporters of this platform, and I feel it’s slightly better competition is the epic 2. But, in reality, the epic 1 in 700mm is the direct comparison. But several hundred more.

Have a want ad on here for a diana model 50 and this guy responded to me that is 100% a scammer, would love to report him so he doesn't get anyone.

Will AEA and JTS replace JSB and H&N ammo? Many benchrest shooters seem to think so. Superior weight consistency being huge. I’m not a benchrest guy, so , do tell.

Cutting to the chase - I have a 20" (510mm) .177 LW barrel in one of my prophets and it really likes jsb 13g ko's. I'm down to my last tin of them. I've heard / seen via youtube (and maybe in here?) that the zan's are supposed to be quite good. The Danish youtube guy (Viking Airgunner) - he swears by the 16g zan's. He's also got a 700mm barrel too so . . . . he can get 'em up to speed w/out much effort. I'm just curious if any of you guys are shooting the subjected and with what for ammo? I'm tempted to pick up a "tin" ( carton - whatever the zan's come in ) of both the 13's and the 16's just to try them out.

------> OR <------

Do I just not be a knucklehead and grab another 4 or 5 tins of a known good ammo and be done with it? ( lol ) I kinda don't mind experimenting but then again - I also (potentially) wind up with yet another tin of "X" ammo that didn't work and it winds up just sitting in a box taking up space . . .

Thanks guys

This is not a self pity deal. I was like many in the beginning here, just looking to post enough to sell stuff. Then I became enamored with all the cool stuff here! Now, IDK, 6 years later, I feel I’m running out of worthy contributions, big part of it is personal range access. I have ZERO! Have to now rely on firearms public range hour and a half away. Eastern Long Island, known for windy weather. Limited funds blocks cutting edge access to new stuff, mora, epic 1. Etc. how do I continue to contribute? Ahhh, feeling a bit bummed . Sorry about the pity semi rant, lol!

In your experience...which brand of pellets/slugs showed you the most expansion after impact?

50, 60, 72, 85, 102 yards. 5 shot groups. HW97 .20 running the JSB 13’s @ 720. Slight right to left breeze.

My neighbors rats have been picky and not venturing off into “no rats land” and onto my property….ive had success the last 3 times I’ve used this.. less than 3 bucks off Amazon … the powerful bacon smell is irresistible!
