    BRK Ghost patent issue?

    I saw the following on a Dutch airgun site . Was this already discussed here? ( could not find such ).

    Speed increase from 500mm to 600mm ?

    60fps would be quit a good guess

    Slugs and FX barrels

    My experience is that each brand has slight difference in measurement indication. For example it could well be that you shoot NSA .217 perfectly well and then .218 from Javelin also whilst the .217 from Javelin shoots crap. This is just an example but counts for all brands and weight within...

    Springbok

    I am very tempted by the SPRINGBOK as well. I hope someone will post a review soon ( with slugs preferably) First time easy regulator acces in combination with the rock solid Kalibrgun make . Semi automatic with magizines . god looks . Little heavy maybe . Nice unique package at first sight .

    New valve design for the FX Panthera

    The airflow appears to take a different route with the Panthera. Not in a sort of 90degrees angle into the transfer port as with every airgun thus far i but with a much more gradual slacker angle . Efficiency and power should be the result I guess. I believe this princip will find its way to...

    Best version of the FX Panthera for hunting.

    I only have a Wildcat MKIII compact in .22 with some after market stuff to make it work well with slugs at around 65 joukes. with a DELTA titanium 2.5-16 x56 scope. Perfect for small game . For fox, raccoon , small pigs etc I would step up a bit In power. These days you can reach high...

    Best version of the FX Panthera for hunting.

    I hope you sincerely mean your apologies . If so accepted as long as you promise to stick within 100 yards or so with airgun hunting. ( with appropriate caliber on appropriate game ) Airgun projectiles are meanwhile perfectly fine for hunting , especially when you check on so called “slugs”...

    Best version of the FX Panthera for hunting.

    Again with every other post you make it more obvious that you are not having any know how about principles of killing an animal by a bullet. hydrostatic shock for example is a term that comes into play with high energy projectiles at the distances you talk about. This effect does not come...

    Best version of the FX Panthera for hunting.

    Well I am happy you did…..i hope you understand the message behind it. Shooting at animals at distances over 150 yards with an airgun is insane !!! The time the projectile is on its way to the target alone is already that long that its physical position ( read killing zone) can shift from...

    Best version of the FX Panthera for hunting.

    Sorry to say but you have NO CLUE what you are talking about as far as airgunning is concerned . I hope you stay far away from the horror plans / ideas you have in terms of airgunhunting . Maybe ask a family member or a good friend to hold up a 2 inch diameter steel plate in front of their...

    Best version of the FX Panthera for hunting.

    Hitting the killing zone on an airgun appropriate animal at 150 yards and over is rather challenging . Imagine an average killing zone of 1 inch in a hunting situation……. My advice is not to even try unless you don’t mind sending wounded animals into the fields/air . advice……when you are not...

    Then hammerstroke/weight / hammerspring/ hammerspringtension/ valvespring ( mix) have to be adapted to do what you want obviously….

    BRK Ghost Review

    What a good amount of work and posting again. Thank you for that. Apart from the hades you do not seem to find the right tune for any of the projectiles yet. Although the speeds would suggest that you should be in the right ballpark . I believe a shorter burst of higher pressure air is...

    Tuning Why do others not copy twistrates FX superior liners

    By te way……I was just thinking that the BKR Ghost or Kalibrgun Springbok are so new that it might well be that these pcp‘s shoots slugs and pellets even better than FX products with a superior liner….. Time will tell ( but I don’t expect this to be the case….😌) Anyone with good updates on...

    Tuning Why do others not copy twistrates FX superior liners

    Thanks for a lot of input meanwhile guys but still the reality is that no other brand than FX shoots pellets and slugs equally well. The best explanation/ reply to my openings question to my idea is that the costs and efforts to copy the same range of barrels like FX has are a real hurdle. (...

    Tuning Why do others not copy twistrates FX superior liners

    What is the point you want to make with your post ? Isn’t is so in this world that suing a company can only be meaningful and succesfull if you have good legal arguments and reasons to do so ? My strong believe is that without being a FX fanboy that FX has brought by far the most innovations...

    Tuning Why do others not copy twistrates FX superior liners

    1) “ no one said that diabolos are the ultimate projectile” That is correct , but why do you mention that ? 2) I never said that duplicating firearms ballistics was the way with airguns . On the contrary when you read my postings well. 3) Also I did not mention anything about shooting pas5...
