    30-Yard Challenge

    Thanks Ed! Yes, it sure looks like that could have been the problem. However, I still had plenty of air as I shot two more cards after this. I am going to look at my pellet measurements for those shots to see if they fell into a certain range and I will check the velocities to see if there...

    30-Yard Challenge

    Hi Again, Really nice day today here so I got a bunch of shooting in. I am evaluating the AEA 21.9gr .22 cal pellets in the Nordic Wolf Crown. The 500mm .22 barrel has given me really good results with the FX and JSB 18.1 gr. To do the evaluation I measure and weigh 192 pellets (eight...

    PCP Rifle FX Crown MkII 500mm .22 in GRS Stock

    FX Crown MKII with Nordic Wolf GRS stock. This rifle is set up with a 500mm .22 barrel. Asking $1500 TYD for rifle with, two FX magazines, and a hard case (scope, wheel and bipod not included). PayPal (FF or invoiced if you pay additional %) preferred. I machined out a place for an inset...

    FX Fx crown leak !!

    Uh oh! I just realized by looking at the picture you provided that your Crown is likely a MkI. If so, it is possible that the regulator body is the smaller 8mm one instead of the newer 10mm one. That would mean the sizes of the o rings I provided are incorrect. You'll have to check your...

    FX Fx crown leak !!

    Hi, This is the breather hole for the Bellville Spring part of the regulator. As stated by bchannell above, air leaking from here means one of three o rings on the regulator are bad. Below is a video from Sub12Airgunners on rebuilding the regulator. They do it for an Impact, but the...

    30-Yard Challenge

    Hi Guys, I shot this card the other day but didn't get around to scoring and picture taking until today. It is my first card with the FX FDR Classic 500mm in .177. I am getting closer to a good tune as I was able to shoot a 30yd Challenge - 192-8X. So put it on the Leader Board so I have...

    FX 380mm Crown .25 barrels

    I have a 380mm .22 barrel kit I bought from an AGN member. I then put together a 380mm .177 barrel by buying the .177 380 liner (from Mundilar Airguns) and all the .177 parts needed to make a barrel except the shroud as it is the same for .177 and .22. All in all it was less expensive than...

    30-Yard Challenge

    Hi Guys, A really nice day here near the beach and for a change light winds. Decided to try out the NW Crown with some new pellets. I shot the AEA 21.9 gr .22 pellets (because I ordered them by mistake instead of the 18.3 gr). I had shot a lot of H&N Barracuda Match 21.4gr in my Maverick...

    30-Yard Challenge

    Wow Tommy, the 199 Card must have a sub 1/4" spread over all 20 shots - Awesome. You have the RAW dialed in!! Cheers, Greg

    FX FX Crown regulator??

    HI, If you are going to replace the regulator O rings may I suggest that you watch the video below. Sub12Airgunners are among the best at explaining how to do things on airguns. I also suggest investing in some "Jeweler's Glasses" to help you when working on the O ring in the receiver body...

    30-Yard Challenge

    Tommy, On the DRS the air cylinder is wrapped around the barrel. The carbon fiber "shroud" that you see is the air cylinder. It has about 210cc of air and another 30cc in the fake magazine plenum. I sort of followed a video by "Tilly's Gunstocks" to make my own adjustable cheek riser as...

    30-Yard Challenge

    Hi Guys! We have had decent (not too windy) weather the last two days so I have been sending "lead downrange". Unfortunately the results haven't been much to speak of. Haven't had much luck with the NW Crown in .22 since I switched it back from .177. Still fine tuning it. The problem is...

    FX Angled Manometer Question

    Hi, You absolutely need to plug the hole if you are moving the gauge. It seems to me you have a couple of choices. You can send the kit back to where you got it as the $29.99 kit from Utah Airguns includes the plug. You could call UA and have them send you the plug for a likely small...

    FX DRS Valve

    Hi, Saw that Bagnal and Kirkwood have all three different valves and valve pins. Is that a FORM stock on your DRS? I have one being made now :D . Cheers, Greg https://spares.bagnallandkirkwood.co.uk/product/fx-drs-modular-impulse-valve-seat-different-power-versions/...

    FX DRS Barrel swap?

    Hi Guys, Did some checking on the schematics. The DRS uses the same barrel tubes, STX liners, o-rings (or CF Sleeve) and liner lock nut as the Panthera/Dynamic/King/ Impact. You would need a new liner, CF sleeve, and Liner lock nut for your specific caliber and length. The only barrel parts...
