Fx Crown MK II and barrels compatibility

[pafumo]

My apologies if this topic has been thearted, but I can't find any information on it anywhere official. I have a Fx Crown continuum MK II, 5.5 caliber with a 700mm barrel (Superlight STXS) with too many changes in the POI. I know that superlight barrels has some problems with movements of spacers along the liner. I have seen the carbon sleeve solutions and 3D spacers, but my search for a solution is more simple and radical. Is possible install a complete Smooth Twist X barrel (NOT superlight version) (liner, liner steel cover, lock nut, transfer port and shuround) on the Fx Crown MK II? Is there compatibility between the Fx Crown MK II and the barrels of previous non-superlight Fx Crown versions? Thanks and again my apologies if this topic has already been covered.

Yes,I have one with a 6pound barrel sleeve for my crown. The stx in 22 caliber will work,but oversized dual transfer port will interfere with your transfer port adjustment. What it's on when you put it in is where it'll stay. You'll not be able to turn it. That's no problem,with dual port you'll want it on high anyway.i have what your wanting and will sale it. The stx 22 caliber 700mm .

I have 600mm also. The big tube in the picture is a friction fit steel tube bored to 13.95mm to tension the 700mm and add weight for bench rest shooting. The system is very accurate with aea 25.4 grain pellets and with hybrid slugs. I'm taking dime size 5 shoot groups with out wind.
