Hi can anyone suggest me what are the best pellets for impact M3
I used slugs ZAN PROJECTILES 45.5gr/2.95gr but unfortunately I had stacked 11 in my barrel
I spend nearly 2 hours removing them so I won’t be using them as it seams anymore

If you're using the correct size slug (to match your caliber barrel) you'd have to be shooting them really really really slow for them not to make it out the muzzle.

Please provide more information about your M3.
  • Caliber
  • Liner type
  • Velocity & weight of known pellets that work
  • Size and weight of the ZAN projectile you're trying to shoot

Every time you cycle the action and close it, a new pellet/slug will go in.

You can de-cock the gun by holding the cocking lever back and pulling the trigger. Hold the trigger and gently slide the action closed.

I would provide more advise and knowledge, but I think you already learned it 11 time over lol.

Yeah. Highly recommend you watch a video on tuning the M3…

So what is your second regulator at? The gauge in the back (rear) should show you this.

Bring your first reg out to around 220 bar. Do this by taking the bottle off and using a 2.5 mm Allen inside where the air travels. Go counter clockwise for about 1/4 turn. Screw the bottle back in and check your reg. The front gauge reads the first reg. The gauge in the back reads the second reg. The second reg (or the one you use to adjust near the trigger blade) should be at 150 bar. Do you know what your current reg is at?

That guy probably assumed you knew enough about the rifle already.

The reg is around 150 based on the pic and the HST is at 3.5, both of which should be sufficient to shoot them out the barrel. The only thing I can’t see well is the valve knob setting. You should be at about the 4th line showing. If the valve knob is screwed right in it could be restricting air enough to prevent a shot. I have shot hundreds of those Zans through that liner, so there’s nothing wrong with the sizing. I hate to ask a potentially insulting question, but did you pull the trigger and hear the gun go off after loading each slug?

Edit: I see that’s reg1 at 150, what about reg2 which you can see from under the gun? It should at least shoot them at 120bar or more…
