I have two of the .25LR barrels. They both shoot extremely well. I’ve had great results with 25.4g, 34g and even the H&N 30g. The .25LR is more difficult to find than the .22LR - they only offered the .25LR during the final year of Prophet Performance “P1” production. An interesting thing...

Nobody knows more about FX Crowns than Greg (NAProf). He is our resident technical expert in the 30 and 40 Yard Challenge community in the Target Shooting Challenges forum here on AGN. He’s also a top shooter with his Crowns. However, he has modified his Crowns. Mine is bone stock except I’ve...

My Crown Mk2 .22 with 500mm superlight barrel: (btw - It won’t take you more than 50 shots to “settle in” your new Crown Mk2) Regulator pressure: 130 bar Transfer Port Adjuster: Medium Adjust hammer spring preload to shoot 18.13g JSB/FX pellets at 890fps. Precision target shooting results -...

I’m continuing to play with 700mm barrel on my FX Crown Mk2 .22. Shot three 40-Masters today: 196 11X 192 13X (darn wind and shift on #3) 194 9X (ended with 3 straight 9s) Thoughts: Using 700mm the Crown uses less air per shot. Why bother with any pellet over 18.13g out to 40 yards?! The...

I had this 5-shot group measuring .325” edge-to-edge a few days ago. What was really cool about this group: It was shot outdoors with wind gusting to 25mph. It was at a laser measured 40 yards distance. I was testing a new .22 700mm barrel on my FX Crown Mk2. I swapped off the 500mm barrel...

I‘d like to see all n00bs considering a $2k FX Impact as their 1st PCP to use an unregulated Daystate Revere for a week, lol. (Currently $900 at AoA) After seeing the accuracy and handling of the Revere out to 50 yards (with zero adjustments), I wonder how many would still feel the need for an...

Ok, here is an opinion coming from my experience… with high end photography lenses.. If you are 65+ years old, there are many “buy it and use till can no longer shoot” scopes. However, if you are a younger guy, expect to see massive improvements in scope optics over the next 20+ years -...

Great shooting Tommy - wish I could have joined you at your empty range - it looks really nice !👍🏻

So how did the 700mm barrel on the Crown Mk2 shoot: Pretty darn good – all results are 40-Masters cards: Nov 17th: 195 12X – with 25.4g @ 890fps (really good wind conditions) 192 8X – with 20.83g @895 fps (breezier than 195 conditions) PW=16 193 8X – with 18.13g @ 905fps (breezy Left to...

Hi Challenge Shooters… Sharing what I’ve been up to the past few days… I was considering buying a 2nd FX Crown, but the seller wouldn’t budge – so I looked at my barrel inventory and realized that I had a 700mm .22 barrel for my existing Crown – that had never been shot or mounted. The AGN...

Incredible consistent accuracy with a .22 pellet at 100 yards ! Your 1/2” groups at 100 yards look like my 40 yard groups today - testing a 700mm barrel on my .22 FX Crown. 1/2” is so tight at distance, can’t imagine doing that at 100 yards, at least not outdoors. Great shooting! How...

Your vertical spread on that card looks excellent Tommy.

Leaderboard Update - through 11/10/24 Hi Challenge Shooters, Below are our leaderboards with submissions through 11/10/24. Notable Submissions: 30-Challenge: 200 16X by EPG with his Reximex Daystar .177 (Post# 2765) 199 12X by NaProf with his FX Crown Mk2 .177 Green Mountain (Post# 2766)...

Great shooting JimmyD! I have bought three Athlon Argos 10-40x56 scopes recently. I’m really liking them. I find the glass clear even at 40x - and the reticle is very fine so it does not obscure target. You found a better deal than I did - I’ve been paying about $330 for mine. Let me know...

Well, since Ricky gave me a sad face for not shooting the Challenges in gusty wind the other day, today I got in a 40-Masters in the gusty wind with the FX PowerPup. Shot a 190 - and the wind was gusting to 19mph and switching directions. As you can see, I got more comfortable understanding...

Awesome shoot’ TommyB ! It had some fun shooting my PowerPup today, but didn’t shoot any cards. It was shooting great at 40 yards, but wind was crazy and shifting.

Hi Shinyknight, Regarding FX liner length and how it effects accuracy… A few points to consider (there are many variables) Shorter barrels/liners are stiffer than longer barrels. FX liners are thin and flexible compared to a traditional steel barrel. Those first two points mean that a long...

Thanks Ricky… But you are a successful competition shooter, so I’m hoping that you will let us “dig deeper” into your shooting technique… On many of my rifles, I’m putting pressure on the trigger from the 2 o’clock position with my index finger - with counter pressure from my thumb from the...

Trust me, you are gonna like it - REALLY like it!

I’ve got another target scope arriving today. Its an Athlon Argos Gen 2 10-40x56 SFP. I’ve got two already. Getting them for a good sale price at Optics Planet. Glass is not as clear as my Sightrons, but its damn good even at 40x with the tiny 30 and 40 yard challenge targets. I can see the...
