    FX FX impact M4 velocity “warm up”

    Yep I did the same process as yourself and found that solved the issue, I also lightly lubed the rod with silicone oil before putting it all back together, then a drop or two of silicone oil in the fill hose of my compressor just before filling the rifle up. It now takes just 2-3 shots to get...

    Tuning Your M3 Tunes Here

    What’s your best tune for 34gr slugs ? I’m using H&N .218 currently. My setup, is .22 Impact M4 700mm, Slug power kit, STX heavy liner, carbon sleeve. I’m wanting to get to somewhere near 990-1000 FPS ideally unless you have best results at lower FPS, can I ask what your reg is at, macro &...

    FX FX impact M4 velocity “warm up”

    Hi, What a great idea 💡👍 This looks like the perfect solution to me & it would be a straightforward swap too if you made them with the o-rings in place. Do you sell these ? Is so how much are they including shipping to the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 ? I’m really interested in purchasing one 👍

    FX FX impact M4 velocity “warm up”

    Yeh it’s 10-15 shots, but I’ve only had the rifle 3 weeks it’s only had about 400 slugs through it, I wouldn’t have thought a reg rebuild & polish would be required at such an early stage. Here the chronograph results from an overnight room temperature rest, (over 2x strings as pictured) 26...

    FX FX impact M4 velocity “warm up”

    Hi, yeah I may bleed the system and try a lower reg pressure at around 140 and slowly turning it up if needed. I’m wondering if the hammer is having to work to hard to hit the value, I guess there’s only 1 way to find out 👍

    FX FX impact M4 velocity “warm up”

    Hi, I’ve already got the heavier hammer installed as part of the FX power kit the latest power kit just has a hammer replacement heavier hammer now & not the weighted spacers that used to slot on the original hammer. Maybe a reduction in my reg pressure from 165 to say 150ish might help as the...

    FX FX impact M4 velocity “warm up”

    I’m wondering if someone can shed some light on this question. I’ve recently got an FX Impact M4 .22 700mm with slug power kit installed, heavy liner, carbon sleeve etc. If the rifle has been resting (but is room temperature) I notice it takes a good 10-15 shots for the velocity to get to...

    FX FX Impact M4 - 300 Bar - Needs First Regulator ?

    Yes it seems a lot of dealers either don’t know this or aren’t informing their customers on this point. You will read that some people have just fitted the 300Bar bottle straight on without the 1st regulator and they report it works fine. However as FX have told me it’s not rated for it how...

    FX Fx impact m4, why did they got rid of 1st reg?

    I contacted FX directly to clear this issue up, several retailers appear to be providing poor information: My question to FX: Message: Hi, I'm not sure where to direct my inquiry. I just want to know if I can install a 300Bar bottle on an FX Impact M4 & fill it to 300bar without any additional...

    FX Fx impact m4, why did they got rid of 1st reg?

    Ahh that’s interesting 🧐 I contacted FX about mine & connecting a 300Bar bottle & they told me I had to install the first reg. Those liars lol 😂 thanks for the info 👍👍

    FX Fx impact m4, why did they got rid of 1st reg?

    Why would you need to buy more bottles. You just fill the 300 Bar bottle you own to 250. Am I missing something ? But yeah you’re correct to run a 300Bar system you do need to install the 1st regulator & manometer, but they do just simply screw in, it’s basically a 5 minute job. I recommend the...

    FX Fx impact m4, why did they got rid of 1st reg?

    This is only true if you’re using a maximum pressure of 250bar, if you want to run a 300Bar system you have to re-install the 1st reg as the now only 2nd regulator can’t deal with 300Bar.

    FX FX Impact M4 - 300 Bar - Needs First Regulator ?

    Yeah that extra $10 makes total sense doesn't it, & on the M3 which has 2 regs already you could just screw it straight on even if you want to keep filling to 250 you've got a cushion of safety, or perhaps fill near half way say 270-275bar, then once the air has cooled back down to room...

    FX FX Impact M4 - 300 Bar - Needs First Regulator ?

    Hi, Thanks for the reply, this is all very true, however what you're forgetting is the exact same thing happens on a 250bar fill, it gets hot, expands & fills to 250bar and the compressor shuts off, then after an hour when its returned to room temperature you'll find its probably down to...

    FX FX Impact M4 - 300 Bar - Needs First Regulator ?

    Hi, I’ve gone for the 700mm Sniper version, the reason is really as you’ve correctly guessed for increased shot count. I see your point regarding just getting a larger 250bar bottle but that was sort of the plan anyway , I was just hoping for the best of both worlds. A 300bar bottle roughly...

    FX FX Impact M4 - 300 Bar - Needs First Regulator ?

    I've placed my order for a new .22 FX Impact M4 and knew from much research and reviews already that FX have removed the 1st regulator, apparently the new brass pin in the 2nd regulator can handle higher reg pressures and so there is no need for the 1st reg anymore, it all sounds good so far...
