FX Who here bought a FX Dynamic VP? Thoughts on it?
- Thread starter Maizen
- Start date
So far so good, I've had great shot groups at 150 yards (haven't had a chance to shoot it further) It has its advantages on my friends ranch where we took out some coyotes from the post. Good shot count for what we were doing, speeds at roughly 950 I want to say.

I ordered one from Utah air but it's still 2-3 weeks out from delivery. The reason I bought the VP is I am going to switch out all the furniture anyways.
Dynamic is same action and barrel system with different furniture as Panthera which is already proven.

confused as to why it's a whole new model with different name if its basically a panthera? also am I the only one who thinks the bottle stock is ugly and a potential point of failure?

I'm sure it's not a point of failure. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. To me its a cheap Panthera ...buy the goodies you want.

i agree the stock bottle looks goofy but the dynamic has more air carrrying capacity/options
compared to panthera

It is the same action and barrel. Panthera is specifically designed for PRS! The dynamic is more general purpose platform with endless configurations available/coming, hence the name Dynamic.

You can now order the panthera with two bottles via the "dynamic"
They're the same damn rifle lol
What is hard to understand about that lol

I have the Dynamic Double Express in 30 cal. You can also order the Panthera in a double bottle config. You get more air with the Dynamic double config though. The Dynamic has a 480 in the back and a 580 in the front for a total of 1060cc, the Panthera double config has a 300 in the back and a 580 in the front, 860 cc total. High Pressure Pneumatics has the Dynamics in stock in all configs last I checked. That's where I ordered mine.

This is the setup I’m most interested in. How many shots are you getting pushing what ammo and what groups have you been seeing?

I've only had it about a week so far and only shot it to 100 yards. Grouping about 1 inch at 100 right now with 50 gr slugs, reg at 150 and hammer spring at about 3.5. Shot count is pretty high. I've been refilling it after about 40 shots, but it's usually only dropped to a little under 200 bar at that point. I could get quite a few more out of it before it hit 150 if I shot it all the way down. I have some 60.8 gr Rifle slugs I'm going to put through it this weekend. It will push the 50s at over 1050 fps with the hammer spring turned up, but the groups loosen up. The reg is also good up to 180 bar as well, but I haven't turned it up that far yet.

As an aside,I like the bottle stock more than I thought I would. It has a carbon fiber rod that you can adjust to get more length of pull, and the butt pad is adjustable up and down as well, it isn't as limited as an Air Force is.
