    Brocock/BRK Out with the old, in with the new

    .25 Ghost HP, Hawke Sidewinder 4-16 FFP MOA with medium rings. The riser can be removed and the cheek piece slid directly on the rail, I used M5x5mm .80 pitch grub screws. Just got it setup, reg set to 140b now, it came from AoA with 165b reg, 33.95gr @ 950 fps. Shooting for 910-915 fps with...

    .25 JSB 33.95 MK II fps preference?

    I have seen 880-970 but have seen more 900-920 but not sure if that is for the original or MK II.

    PatchWorm .25 cal patches?

    It seems the .25 cal spacer is a little small, do you need to use the heavy duty patches for a snug fit? What patches are you guys using?

    Feel sick and happy at the same time?

    I just called up AOA and ordered a BRK Ghost, the price of quality airguns makes me feel sick to my stomach(for real) but happy at the same time for something hopefully amazing. Does anyone else get this weird feeling too?

    FX Visit to Cape Fear Airguns!

    I drove down to Cape Fear Airguns in Wilmington, NC to see the man himself Newman Buck. I was dropping off my rifle for a reseal under warranty, as Cape Fear is the east coast FX warranty center. I’m glad to see his shop is doing well since the FX US closure. He is a very nice guy and obviously...

    FX Maverick sprung a big leak

    My Maverick VP has always had a slow leak, 2-3 bar a week since new, it’s been about a year and I just got a FX 580 cf bottle. Fill the bottle to 250 bar and the 2nd reg went to 150 bar, I fired a few shots and it refilled to 112 bar like normal, I checked on it about 1 hour later and the I...

    Hawke Sidewinder or Arken EPL4?

    I’m trying to decide between the Hawke Sidewinder 4-16x50 FFP or Arken EPL4 4-16x44 FFP? I have a Athlon HERAS SPR 2-12×42 and it’s ok, has some CA and is not as bright or crisp as my Hawke Airmax 4-12x40 AO on my TX200, which was a surprise. Any info/experience would be welcome and thanks.

    FX CF Sleeve?

    I have a carbon fiber sleeve for just in case I have to remove the barrel and not install the orings. Do you think it will help my Mavericks accuracy shooting the 25.4 MRD @ 940? Any tips for installing the liner/sleeve? I just don’t know how tight to make the barrel nut. Thanks

    FX Maverick - Saber Tac bag rider install?

    They say it needs bent and straightened to fit the Maverick has anyone installed one? I tried to find a diy version. I have a idea of using the triangles in the butt pad to put 1/4-20 bolts through and bolt on a short L shaped 1/2” PVC pipe to the side. I use a squeeze bag for the rear on all...

    Moderator for 50 fpe?

    I have a Donny Tanto on a Maverick .22 600mm and it does take the edge off about 50% quieter than none. It is still a little louder than I would like for neighbors. Are baffle types better than the Donny setup? I was not sure about weight for FX barrels/shroud with a big mod. Is the Sumo...

    FX FX bottle o-ring, how to replace?

    Maverick VP bottle, I think all FX are same. I’m not sure where or how to get it out. Looking in, there is threads then a space(o-ring could go in there), just below that lip there looks to be a oring almost even with valve pin, but not sure if thats it? I don’t want to dig at that one if it...

    FX Gauge pinched off?

    I replaced the small FX/Wika rear gauge on my Maverick with a 28mm Wika. When I pulled the old one out, it had a tube soldered in the port and it was almost pinched shut, not sure how it even read anything.

    FX .22 Maverick reg starting points?

    Maverick .22 600mm with stock hammer(7g). I plan to shoot the FX/JSB MRD 25.4 at 910 fps. Does 1st reg at 140 and 2nd at 100 bar, PW7 sound like a good starting point? This would allow me to go up to 115 bar before having to readjust the 1st reg. Trying to get close, not a lot of .22 info...

    Digital gauge options?

    I ordered a 28mm Wiki but I’m returning it due to a defect, now I’m thinking digital. Is the Sekhmet 28mm G2 ok to buy or do they still have issues? The amazon Orcair/Huma/Airmarksman with the replaceable battery seems to get good reviews also. Any other suggestions?

    Wika gauge face tilted?

    I just received a new 28mm Wika gauge and the face is tilted left to right. Is this normal for analog gauges? Do you think it will cause a issue?

    FX Maverick VP finally ready!

    I finally put on the replacement top rail, adjusted the trigger and mounted the optic(Athlon HERAS SPR 2-12x42, Med UTG Pro rings). It’s a .22 cal, going to shoot the FX/JSB 25.4 and 18.1 pellets. After trigger testing, I gave it the first fill from my RovAir. Didn’t blow up, guess I did...

    FX Maverick Trigger Adjust - screw feels stuck

    I’m trying to adjust the 2nd stage pull weight and the 1.5mm screw feels like loctite is on it? Does the rifle need to be cocked, empty of air? Right now it is uncocked, bottle on with pressure. Any help is appreciated, don’t want to strip the set screw.

    FX FX Torque Specs?

    I have noticed no actual torque specs for most FX rifles, in all videos it’s just finger tight with a T-handle or driver. Is this how everyone does it when re-assembling? Is it just by screw size in aluminum?

    FX Maverick, 1st or 2nd reg not to shoot below?

    I would think the 2nd reg but don’t want to jack the gun up. My regs are set 160/120 bar. Also I was not clear on how to de-cock the gun with no pressure in it, without damage. Thanks and sorry for the dumb questions.
