Got the Panthera set up with 580/300 today. Looking forward to the warm up next week -hopefully can get to the farm to stretch its legs a bit. 76yds is max at the house. So far the HN 38gr at 980 are winning

I’m guessing you’re not sure how an FX free floating hammer works? It pretty much eliminates hammer bounce.

Thanks for the picture. I had heard a bottle could be added to the front of the block. Pretty much confirms that I will be ordering one now. I wold probably eliminate the rear bottle to reduce gun weight .
I can see a LOT of buyers who don’t shoot PRS changing to the 580 bottle up front for increased shot counts.
Wondering if FX will have that option from the factory in the near future?

Can you please post the part number(s) for using the forward CF bottle on the Panther? Thanks...

I’m guessing this block is going to be used in other platforms as they come out. I see a crown mk3 in the making with that front bottle. The future is exciting!

Do you know how much it eliminates? calculate the efficiency and everything will be clear to you...

They said in their last FX USA video that the platform was designed to be modular and we can expect a front bottle version sometime in the future.

From what I can find I would say the parts needed would be ....
19761, 10335, 19694, 19950, 20540, and 11507
That should give you the entire assembly needed to add another bottle to the system

Most of the M3s aren't really free floating especially if you changed out to a huma spring and any sort of extra hammer weight or have the macro and micro cranked up there the hammer is preloaded before being cocked

Thanks for the heads up!!
I don’t take in a lot of videos anymore. Think I burned myself out

FX efficiency is one of the highest in the industry. daystate uses a similar design in their sling shot hammer. Most “floating” hammer designs are there to prevent hammer bounce, so I don’t follow where you’re going. You want fx to completely eliminate hammer bounce before the rest of the industry? Or you’re just another FX hater that has to point out their flaws because you’ve never owned or shot one!
don’t need a calculator to see that

Bottle adapter xxxxx
Washers xxxxx
At this point I will be keeping both bottles on just for testing and I do hope shoot a few bench matches that Tom from High Pressure will be putting on this summer.
Ill have just the 300b bottle on while defending my orchards from sqrlz. I was getting 24-26 shot count which is plenty per outing.
And the gun weighs 12.8lbs with both bottles so not interested in lugging that around.

Are you also removing the rear bottle with all these parts listed? If you are just adding a front bottle you’ll just need adapter and washers -yes? Thats all I did. Very simple
