Huma air has caliber change kits i think for about 80 bucks plus shipping which i think is pretty steep but that kit a probe and liner would change it to what caliber you want for under 300 i think

FX DRS vs Panthera (Dynamic block)
- Thread starter Smok3y
- Start date
There are several parts to consider for Caliber change.
I have just done it on my Panthera.
Huma Caliber conversion is good to start.
If you shoot pellets you will want to add a pellet probe instead of the pin probe.
You will also need as mentioned the liner, and a CF sleeve, and for your shroud you will need a shroud insert as a .22 insert will be a big problem is shooting .30
And for me I like having a second aluminum sleeve so when I change calibers all I have to do is pull the whole barrel out and put the other one in.
Much better than changing all the parts each time.
Oh and the one thing I forgot to ORDER!
New Magazines.
As for longer or shorter barrels figure all the above and also a new shroud.
It can be a bit expensive.
But I can change from 30 cal pellets to 22 slugs now in about 15 minutes.

It cost $200 (plus liner and CF sleeve) to change from 700 to 600. I already had liner and CF.
And yes what others said; Huma cal conversion kit and misc parts convert 22 to 30.

I justed added a angle gauge to my drs to see what my plenum pressure was set at and to my surprise the gauge wika brand new says a setting of 175bar on my drs shooting 40 gr slugs I was thinking it was closer to 150 bar I guess not and it shoots good so I'll leave it there

If Utah doesn't want to sell the parts...call Huma.
I bought my DRS because it was advertised as a Dynamic Rifle SYSTEM. To me that meant OPTIONS other than a bigger/smaller plenum and a silly rail. (2 interchangeable part HARDLY constitutes a SYSTEM). We were supposed to have different air tubes (carbon fiber). FX hasn't released anything new for the DRS in 6 months. There is absolutely no reason they cannot sell a barrel kit for these guns.
Set it and forget it..... more like sold it and forgot it.

Right I was told no 'kits' for panthera which is why I ordered the parts. I was surprised that UA had the items in stock.
I've not a clue on drs situation
