FX Fx impact M3 30cal

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

I would stick with the JSB or FX 44.6 pellets for now. That is what the gun is tuned for from the factory and you will get allot more shots. To shoot slugs you will need to crank up the power and make adjustments to the regulators and power wheel. I wouldn't recommend making any changes until you get up tp speed and the tuning process.

Here is the default factory tune I received from directly from FX support. Mine came with the Hammer Micro set at 3.25 which was about 905fps.

.30 sniper (700mm)

Caliber .30

Regulator 1 150

Regulator 2 100

Hammer Macro 16

Hammer Micro 3.75

Valve Adjustment 5.5

Pellet Weight 44.5

FPS 900
 
My first is 175 second 100 any suggestion of pellet or slug based on those measurements for now would be great micro 3 rear macro 16
Dude 100 is WAYY TOO LOW for that Zan slug. That’s why they got stuck in the first place. You’re probably shooting them at 500-600 FPS. Slugs have a greater surface area than pellets. So there is more friction in the barrel. Thus you need more air behind them.

That being said…skip the slugs for now. You’re new to this game. You need to understand pellets first.

Try 44 grain JSBs. They should be at around a good speed at 100 bar. Leave the slugs alone for now.

Yes I believe so it’s true I am sure not even one shot came out can’t figure out why this person suggested me these slugs I mean I had a conversation with him that I am a beginner but anyway it’s a common true that you always learn from mistakes I will stick on the 44 and leave everything else for later I have a lot to learn yet thanks for the info

My M3 & my friend's M3 both had issues cycling the zan 45 gn. They had enough wiggle room that they wouldn't stay straight and would jam in the mag. I had zero issues with the 59g. Shot amazing at about 900fps.
I have watched some videos on youtube and I have seen and by myself that fx mag are not so good I am thinking for later on to get the stud magazine and I will try the bc magazine check them out they seem to be more stable today I bought the JSB HADES I will see how those will go on
