Fx impact fixed shroud

[ClearedHot]

"Scirroco"Hi ch
There should be no sifference in accuracy really, and you may jave a difderence in point of aim,due to barrel harmonics, and the extending shroud is also heavier and that may in itself change point of impacts ..try shooting a group with shroud/extendable shroud on ,then using the same point of aim shoot without anything on at all,that will give you real time info

My Impact arrived in November with 25cal barrel w/fixed shroud and 30cal barrel w/telescoping shroud. AOA just did warranty work and replaced the 30cal barrel w/ fixed shroud, as it was supposed to be. Thank you AOA.
The 30cal shroud is stamped .25 at the base, and the stackable moderator cap is 30cal. I'm assuming the moderator cap is the only difference between .25 and .30 shroud. One would think the 30cal shroud would be stamped .30 to avoid confusion.
It's minor.....but another thing to keep track of.

Ok boys and girls, I am now an Impact owner and my first impression is the gun is complicated: pellet selection, pellet speed, regulator adjustments, etc. I've put 200 rounds thru her today aimlessly trying to find the best pellet then i put her on the chrony and got some direction. Tomorrow i will be testing Kings @ 900 FPS, MK1's and MK2's at @ 822 and 795 FPS and see who groups the best at 50, 75, and 95 yards. Then maybe i will play with the speed on the winner. Some things i've found out, first to me the .25 cal is pretty loud, second my regulator gage is of by 30 bar it reads 120 and is really 150 bar according to my omega 4500 psi tank and gage. Third my fill gage is off 30 bar as well, it reads 250 and my tank has it at 220, none of this is a big deal now that i know what to expect i'm cool with it. Fourth i had to adjust my power wheel which was pretty easy. Lastly i tried to take my barrel off to clean it and couldn't get it off......it rotates clockwise and counter clockwise a little bit with the set screw all the way removed but i can't pull it out, it almost looks like the set screw may have been set too hard and flared out the hole or something don't know. Not a big deal right now because my patch worms have no issue cleaning the barrel with it installed and i don't have any other barrels but will call AOA next year to let them know. I could put it really hard and make it come out but not ready to do that yet. Did do a barrel inspection and it looks good as far as i can tell. I did get 1 inch groups at 75 yards with the kings right out of the box. Let the good times begin.

Oh and when i screwed on the fixed shroud it wobbled, something is not straight, but pellets are not clipping as of right now.
