I have owned 4 FX products and of the 4, 1 has been great and the others are great sometimes and at other times... not so great.
The great one was the Logun Solo in .22. Robust and just flat dependable oh, accurate too.
Second best is my late model Impact MK in .22.
Third would be my Wildcat MK3BT Compact. 22. Love the stock!
Lastly is my Impact MK3 in .22.
The Logun Solo only ever required breach o-rings every few years. Why did I ever sell it??
My Mk2 Impact has been pretty good with the 700mm barrel and slug liner. I have had to replace the regular once and both gauges once. I was hoping the barrel tensioner system would be a step up but I have yet to have found a way to keep it as consistent as was my own simple system. I cut a piece of carbon fiber (thick walled) tubing squared the ends and secured tension with my moderator. I could pick it up buy the barrel without notable POI shift. A little silicone grease on the ends goes a long way to ensure this. I have had to replace the bottle to bottle adaptor washer/ seal also. I don't push it hard but I do have 2 hammer weight washers installed. I shoot NSA 24.8 grain slugs around 1030fps. Both liners love JSB MRD between 870 and 920fps.
The Wildcat MK3BT Compact is great with the HADES around 930-935fps an MRD as well but it can be pretty sensitive accuracy wise more than the others. Short barrel syndrome?? This has need a new bottle gauge and breach o-rings. Less than a year old. The 600mm liners both have less than acceptable accuracy. Both lead up really fast!
The Impact MK3 does well with the 700mm and 800mm barrels. The 800 has the FX tensioner system and loves 31 and 28.5 NSA slugs. The latter at 1070ish. It has the heavier Huma brass hammer weight and NSA slug probe. I'm on my second 1rst regulator 2nd set of gauges. I'm running my 2nd regular at 155 and feel like the 1rst reg is better suited for much lower 2nd reg pressures if need at all. The MK2 is just more consistent than this is.
At this point I'm considering getting a Tiapan Veteran, Kalibur Cricket or something else that is more robust and less finicky.
Selling the MK2 to my brother for his fist PCP. It should do him a good job for pesting and target shooting from his deck.
