    Great video, guys! I have been having super amazing accuracy with the 30gr .218 Javelin Slugs out of my .22 cal 600mm Panthera. Last week I beat quite a few .22LR guys with it at an NRL22 match, and clinched first place in the airgun division. I will be shooting Javelins at NAC next month - that is for sure!

    I would like to see a solid 14mm "real" barrel. It could be machined so to screw on the brass transfer port. This "real" barrel be unchoked for slugs only. FX could offer it as an upgrade.

    Good timing with the availability of Javelin slugs in .25 and 30 caliber. My FX Panthera 600mm in 30 cal is supposed to be shipped out this week. My plan for my Panthera is for a long range groundhog rig. Do you think these heavier 30 cal. slugs will be stable out to 200 yards. Might be nice to see some long range groups at say 200 yards. I know the FX Panthera in .22 caliber that Ted Bier shot at coke cans showed very good accuracy at 300 yards. It would be nice if FX would share all the results of Hein's work in a chart for each slug weight and diameter for fps, accuracy, regulator and hammer wheel settings. That would be a good guide for initial set-up for the Panthera and Impact. Thanks

    • @FXAirguns
      @FXAirguns  Рік тому +1

      With a 600, I'd suggest starting with the 60gr Javelin, possibly the 64 (but not the 68 as you'll need more barrel length). at 975fps -1000fps you should get very good, and stable results.
      Great idea on having Hein share his data.

      @@FXAirguns Jon I thank and applaud you for taking the time to response to my comments and those of others. It is a rare thing that happens with top people in companies. I am glad that Hein's stated he was doing his testing with the Panthera as it came from the factory with the standard hammer weight. I wanted to get the 8mm hammer installed in my Panthera but the supplier said they were not available yet. It was good too hearing too Heins was going too try shooting with a lower regulator pressures. This is something that should yield a higher shot count and maybe still give good accuracy which is most important with any tune. I am having a front bottle adaptor installed along with a 700cc tank on my rifle to give me extra shot count so I will be using a Saber Tactical bottle pic clamp. I am hoping Saber Tactical or others will be coming with a picattiny and or arca under bottle mount rail for the Panthera. I have never liked using bottle clamps for bipods and particularly on the large and long 700cc bottle for my new rifle. Thanks again and keep up the great customer interaction.

    • @FXAirguns
      @FXAirguns  Рік тому +2

      The lighter weight 52gr has a deeper hollow point as it's designed for expansion. Haven't tested the minimum needed for expansion, but for best accuracy shoot these at 975fps - 1000fps (which will open them up for sure at 100, especially due to the 100% lead being softer than standard slugs)

      Yes use a slug/heavy liner. Accuracy sweet spot is 975 fps so I'd add the slug power kit and tungsten to get the most out of your Crown, and yes still stick to the 52 & 56gr Javelin

    Also, pure sulfuric acid does not exist, neither does a perfect vacuum, absolute zero kelvin, the speed of light, a perfect circle, infinity, zero gravity, nor two barrels exactly alike from the same stock run, and on and on and on.
