    FX M4 0.25 cal shot counts

    The FX website gives ranges of shot counts. Just wondering what people have actually experienced in terms of approximate shot counts for 0.25 cal - compact and sniper versions. Even guesstimates would be helpful !

    FX Impact dimensions question

    Very basic questions: 1. Can the standard 600mm version fit Inside the box with the moderator still attached to the gun? I know in the sniper, you'd have to remove the moderator - wasn't sure if that's also the case with the 600mm. 2. A 600mm version with the bigger sniper bottle - will the...

    FX Impact barrel lengths

    Yes, bench. Mostly pellets. I get the "what" (longer barrel), but now just trying to figure out the "why" ;)

    FX Impact barrel lengths

    Digging further and further into this deep rabbit hole of airgun theory, I was wondering what the more experienced airgunners think about barrel length. My (very limited) understanding is that longer lengths help with air usage (less pressure needed to achieve a given velocity), and help push...

    FX FX Impact M4: What o-ring material???

    I suggest reaching out to your retailer as well. Apparently they've been sent the needed parts, but I don't know for sure myself.

    FX M4 - best setup for bench?

    Have narrowed it down to 0.25 caliber, mainly to lower cost of ammo. If I ever decide to compete, may switch to 30 cal. Now just debating 600mm vs 700mm - I do love a shorter gun, but also want to maximize possible accuracy!

    Ballistic Coefficient: A Real World Example

    This is a fascinating discussion. Begs the question, why are lead free pellets less accurate? If it's just a game of BC and ammo weight, can't you compensate by going up in Caliber?

    What do you like most about airgunning?

    I always found it relaxing as a kid, to shoot targets with a BB gun. 30 years later - am looking to jump back in. I expect it's going to be a great stress reliever. Wondering what enjoyment other people get out of this hobby? Why do you do it, and what keeps you coming back to it?

    N/A Suburban backyard range

    I assume it's essential to trap pellets if shooting in your own yard?

    FX M4 - best setup for bench?

    Thank you. Interesting point on the additional whip on the 700 - would a carbon sleeve mitigate that ?

    FX Impact M3 velocity drops 100 fps after sitting over night then takes 20 shots before it returns back to 990fps. Reg pressure unchanged during process.

    Where are you getting this info from? I submitted a query to FX directly, and they said they've implemented a fix. UA also confirmed this. Now I have absolutely no way of verifying this myself, and I don't know which batch of guns has the supposed fix, but it does seem a bit odd that you are...

    FX M4 - best setup for bench?

    Might be a silly question but how will the 700mm barrel length help? Only asking because the "dedicated pellet version" of the King has a 500mm barrel (equivalent to an M4 compact). So just a bit confused!

    FX M4 - best setup for bench?

    Have seen a ton of videos on the new m4. I am just looking to shoot paper with pellets (at 100 yards), and am wondering what the ideal caliber / barrel combo is. @UpNorthAirGunner called 0.30 cal, "Gods caliber", and makes a compelling case! If I do go for 30 (or 25) cal, would it be better to...

    INTRODUCING THE NEW FX LEOPARD

    This looks amazing, BUT, can we confirm that it doesn't have the slow FPS issue that's plagued the impact M4?
