FX Panthera compact hunter .25 Cal…. My experience.

[Emu]

In order to improve the control of the rifle at the shot I decided to reduce a little bit the power with the micro adjustment.

Vibration at shot feels better.

As a consequence the fps got reduced from 850 to 830 of the JSB 34 grain. But ... Kills more a well placed pellet at 830 than a miss at 850.

The accuracy of my FX Panthera Compact Hunter .25 Cal with this configuration (Element Helix FFP scope, JSB 34 grain MKII pellets, bubble level), playing with the vertical tourret in order to always aim with the center of the reticle and confirming not to cant with the bubble level, is just unbelievable. It is easy to hit the head of a match at 88 yards.

This rifle is now showing it’s potential.

@Emu - I have My HPC 25 set at 130b and it is shooting H&N Baracuda Hunter Extreme 28.24g at 857fps and is very accurate all the way to 100 yards. I believe I have the hammer around 3.2 but don't have the gun in front of me to check exactly. I also added the 2nd bottle like you and my shot count is now way more than the number of shots I ever take hunting. I added the short Saber Tactical ARCA rail to mine and can place it on both an ARCA or Picatinny rail based bipod/tripod , which I like to use.

Since you have had this rifle for awhile now. Have you experienced any poi shift with it. Does it always shoot the same after it has been sitting for a few days.

Nop.

After some inactivity the rifle hits an inch low on first shot at 50 yards, half inch in the second an a bit on the third.... After third shot the rifle is super accurate.

After the chrony I think I should dial the macro weel lower in order not to force the tension of the hammer.

Nop….. What I just did is to make the 13 number of the macro adjustment to match the 2.75 of the micro adjustment. Now the macro adjustment weel shows show as 13 the 2.75 of the micro that worked perfectly.

Is it my gun, but the macro selector jumps over when I try putting it on number 13 - also it seems that the numbers are slightly misaligned. Let me know if it’s normal to be like this.

Steps:

1. Select where you want the micro adjustment to be.

2. Select what number of the macro it wll be.

3. Put the macro in that chosen number.

4.- move the micromto match step number 1.

Thank you very much for the answer! Was completly confused about it.

I have the same rig as @Emu without the adjustable butt plate and scope and a DFL Yokozuna moderator ( I have a Maven RS.1 scope). I was confounded because my gun seemed to be off a bit at 50 and 100 yards. Well I was my own worst enemy! I had the twist rate at 1.17 versus the 1.24 it actually is in Strelok Pro! Problem solved. I shoot mostly JTS 25.39 pellets and I can confidently shoot pests at 100 yards with it.
