I have this rifle in the .25 Continuum package. AWESOME rifle so far and absolutely no issues, Friggin accuracy is on point too. No complaints here what so ever...

I have two Crown MK2s. One, had a leak early on so I sent it back to FX and they repaired it promptly under warranty. Don't forget, you get a 3 year warranty when you buy a new rifle which covers everything. FX's customer service is really good.

Great rifles..since 2017 zero problems...View attachment 341220

Wow! Beautiful!
I just bought my first one today, a 600 mm .30 cal Mk2, Yellow Jacket, with a gen 1 Helos 6X24X50 MOA scope.

Buy one from a reputable seller like airguns of Arizona. Or buy one second hand from a reputable forum member. Idk who you spoke to, but it doesn't sound right. The crown is extremely accurate. Not known for being leaky either. Just make sure to use silicone grease on the smooth (non threaded) sides of the bottle adapter if you plan to remove the bottle under pressure. The oring inside the bottle valve can tear if this isn't lubed.

A fellow in the sales (Wethy) has a real nice one for sale, but it is a Black Pepper Laminate.

Nice!
I bought one from them over at Utah Airguns today. Those folks actually work with you.

Means i don't need separate slug liner for slugs
I will just turn the s side to push the slugs
Is it?

You don't need a slug liner for slugs uoto 26gr. It's advisable to get one for heavier slugs apparently.

I have had my .25 Crown Mkii Continuum going on 2 years now. Great power and Outstanding accuracy with absolutely NO issues.

Probably talking about the barrel having a slug/pellet transfer port.

I personally would degass when dropping the reg but that is just me. You can always start low on reg pressure and work it and the HS up together until you reach your desired velocity range.

I agree with Trucker. I think the info put out originally about lowering pressure while pressurized, then fire a shot, was a mistake to even publish. Yeah, for a few adjustments it might be fine but over time the plastic tip on the brass piston(or tip period, on a plastic piston), will get badly worn and creep will soon be knocking on your door.

It’s best to just degas, close the reg CW to a soft stop, open a whole turn and a half CCW, air back up, then open reg to your desired setting. A whole turn and a half CCW from a soft stop will put you at around 80 BAR.

Even using the slug port on the STX, it's recommended to use a slug liner for anything more than 27gr (which my Crown Mk2 just LOVES. I don't have access to anything heavier to test with at the moment.

The slug port uses the same amount of air as the pellet port, the IHS determines the amount of air. The slug port just let's it out in a shorter burst.

I will let someone that has actually installed one reply as I have a dual ported one but have not used it yet.

Place the s side down, and if you want to shoot heavier slugs then 30grains, you will want to purchase hase the heavy superior liner
