FxM3 impact compact

[Claybird]

Question: just got my m3. Looking for reg settings and fps!
Looking to shoot. FX 22. Pellets. 23 gr. OR what works best in this gr range? Want accurate for 50-100 yards!!! Thanks for the info!

Ain't quite that easy. People can share their tune settings with you but your gun may not like them. The numbers provided can be a "get you started" place but you will still need to fine tune the gun for the best accuracy.
Further, you will need to test pellets and see which shoots best out of your gun. JSB's or FX pellets are usually a safe bet.

Shoot the FX 25.4(JSB monster redesign). It can be shot faster than most pellets and has a good BC. You should be able to shoot the FX 22gr hybrids slugs off the same tune for the 25.4 mrd.

I have a Maverick, so can’t help with a starting tune. You should be able to search and find some for the impact.

Good luck!

It seems 100mm of barrel = about 30 fps.

Tuning - Your M3 Tunes Here

Hey guys. I have an M3 .22 tuned for 25.39gr JSB's. It looks like this: Reg 1: 160 bar / Reg 2 130 / Quik Tune: 3.75 / Dial: 15 for 25.39gr JSB (stock 700mm barrel/liner) [HR] given: I got some guy who sold me 6 tins of his rejected 25.39's, so they look like they have been through a meat...

I understand the settings will be a little different. Looking for something that is working for someone with same rig or close.
Thx!!!

Alright, but this is for a 600 mm barrel, .22 cal 25 grain JSB's and 22 grain Hybrids.
Second reg 108, hammer micro at 4, valve at 9.7 mm's.
JSB's at 916
Hybrids at 950.
Both accurate, only needing a slight vertical scope adjustment between the two.
You'll probably need a bit more second reg to get similar speeds. But I'd start at 110, lower hammer spring and take it from there.
Barrel is on the slug port.

Yeah...remember...EVERY barrel is different than EVERY other barrel.

You shoot...different than other shooters.

Buy a "combination" pack of pellets, or a couple of 200 count tins and..."experiment". Find what works best for..."you" .

Thx Mike. I shoot benchrest as well. Totally understand the need to tune to each barrel.
I actually compare my fx to my Vudoo 22.

Seems to me the variable items are really more simple than powder guns. But you do have to track that right combo!

After you've done a few tunes it's really quite simple and a common sense approach.

I would say if you are going to shoot pellets heavier than 18.1 gr then 100 bar on your second reg will probably be a good start. Using the dual transfer port open up your valve limiter past line 4, back the micro way down low and start shooting over a chrono. Work the micro up slowly until no more velocity can be had at that reg pressure. That number will tell you if the reg is high enough.
