FX Modifications to FX Dynamic

Hello, experts! I recently acquired an FX Dynamic Express 700, but unfortunately, it's only the 25 cal version in stock, and the 30 cal version is out of stock. Since I couldn't wait, I got the 25-caliber one. Is it complicated to switch it to 30-caliber myself? Does it use the same program as the Panthera? Thank you!


In theory you just need a new barrel and probe. BUT supposedly caliber change needs to be done by factory technician for reasons I don't know. I still haven't seen a video of caliber change, only barrel change so not sure what else is involved to change caliber. I'm guess they will change the transfer port choke? Hope we can get more info on it soon even though I don't plan on changing mine.

Changing from a larger caliber to a smaller caliber does not require any modifications to your shroud or moderator, because the bore of the shroud and moderator will be large enough.
When you go upwards to a larger caliber, you need to check the bore of the shroud and moderator, and if needed open up the diameter of the bore of the shroud and moderator to match your new caliber;

Minimum bore diameter for shroud would be:
Cal .22 = 6,5 - 7 mm. bore
Cal .25 = 7,5 - 8 mm. bore
Cal. 30 = 8,5 - 9 mm. bore

Yes, I heard the same word from the dealer, but I really don't know why. Maybe for some business reason?
