FX Crown Continuum

[jawshunting]

I sold a Daystate Wolverine (25) and bought an FX Crown Continuum in 25 caliber. I have to say I am very impressed so far. I have only shot the short barrel so far. 10 pellets through one hole at 55 yards. Little bigger than a dime. The gun seems so much lighter than the Daystate. I'm ready to kill a squirrel with it now. Build quality is awesome, the case is awesome, the moderator is quite which is surprising since its hollow. I went with the Yellow Jacket stock which I think is beautiful. A lot of money but impressed.

Interesting . Two very nice guns. Perhaps you could give us a detailed description of the advantages pros and cons of both guns. I would suspect potential buyers of both guns would be interested

i went from a Wolverine to a Continuum also, I prefer the short barrel on the FX compared to the telephone phone pole daystate.

I just miss the anti double feed on the daystate, I ALWAYS have that problem with FX, probably just need to remember to ALWAYS have it fed.

I've had one for over a year and I've been completely and thoroughly pleased. The gun handles so well, and is such a pleasure to carry thru the woods with short/light barrel. And still shoots 16gr .22 lights out at 960fps. What's not to love. 

I have a synthetic and another walnut stock, the walnut seems to balance the gun out better. And just looks the part, for me, anyhow.

Both great guns. I get bored with things. When I bought the Wolverine I debated, Daystate or FX. After a year of the Wolverine it was time to experience FX. I sold the Daystate on Ebay after no interest here. Never do that again. They take too much of a fee and hold your money too long. Learning lesson. For hunting I will love the shorter barrel of the FX and the lighter feeling. Both triggers are awesome. I have not used the rotary magazine on the FX yet because I was loading them one at a time. No single shot tray with the FX. The Wolverine had one. The rotary magazine on the FX has a good review from Steve at AEAC, I will find out. The Daystate is known to have the pellet probe dinging problem when using the magazine and mine was no exception. The FX did not come with a screw on thread protector while the moderator is off. It may be possible to buy one or find a nut at the local hardware store? Small detail but would have been nice. Both guns are extremely accurate. After more testing with the FX, I will find out who gets the nudge on that one. The case is a very nice touch along with the extra barrel for 100 bucks more on the FX. I know I am leaving a lot out but I've only owned the FX Crown for a day. Neither purchase is a mistake in my opinion if you are willing to part with that kind of doe.

I almost always use a SST on mine. There are nice 3d printed ones available on ebay I even got a second one and modified it to fit my nova star

Utah has the short .30 cal barrels. They are a blast to shoot in low power. Really loving my crown. It gets a lot more use than the impacts.

Thanks for the info on the shot tray. I went to a local hardware store and found two nuts that thread to the ends of the barrels for protection. Cheap fix.

That's not right that you didn't get the protector with your Continuum. That should come with every FX gun. I would at least call and ask about why it wasn't in the box.

I have 3 Continuum's none came with thread protectors.

Hhmmmm....I'm batting a 1,000 then. Bought one and it came with a thread protector from Utah Air.

Thanks for information! I am considering this gun as a first high end purchase.
