The ST TRS top rail should be a std feature on the Impact for what the gun costs new. It is the single best add on I can think of and I will not own an Impact without one. They hold the barrel solid in place with the barrel clamp system at the front too- so no more POI shifts from a slight barrel bump, and just adding one to my 30 cal improved the accuracy/shrunk the groups without having to do any other adjustments to the gun which was an added bonus. It made the gun much better balanced as well and the spirit level is a real help in mounting the scope completely level, plus it shows you if you are canting the gun or not.
Matt, as always your videos are top-notch! Recently purchased the FX Impact and it is everything you said it would be. Shooting Javalin slugs. Would you provide model numbers on the Leophoto tripod and Dual Arca head? Thanks
You can turn the rear cap on your shroud and put an oring groove in it to fit your shroud over a carbon tensioner. My research had shown a spacer type shroud tensioner gets really close to the same results with the cost of more bump sensitivity.
Hey Matt, Dave here, the guy who gave you the 3D printed grip at the GB Shooting Show, was wondering when you would include it in one of your vids, HaHaHa! I'm sure you could easily make another video like this on all the stuff you couldn't fit in this one, such is the abundance of items available to us these days, we are so spoilt compared to when I started shooting airguns back in the 80's. You should definitely try out a Tier One bipod, have just purchased an ATAC which is super light and very adjustable for most hunting situations, loving it so far! Keep up the good work mate, and hope to see you over here again sometime? ;)
Thanks for showing the range of aftermarket additions, but even better, hearing your experiences with them and the situations in which each will perform best. Given the rate at which airgun technology is progressing, I do sort of wonder how true it is that the Impact will not be replaced pretty soon simply due to the need for internal developments.
Awesome video, Matt. I like my Fx impact m3 22 800mm plain and simple light weight for hunting both fx impact mk2 25 700mm don't like all the extra stuff on my gun thanks for sharing bsafe buddy 👍it's a love hate thing for me with both of my fx impacts but they are awesome if you have them tuned and shooting straight I've shot birds out to 220 yds it's insane
I'm surprised you did not include STUD magazines. Bearing mounted, truly centered slugs, and a quick load system. Plus the magazine can take the largest pellets.
This video is timed perfectly! Just got my Impact yesterday (also my first rifle) after binge-watching your videos. Great video and advice! Thanks Matt!
I'm surprised you did not mention harmonic barrel tuners. is there a reason for this? I have one on my maverick and love that i am able to pick my speed and adjust the tuner to tighten up my groups. other than that, this is an awesome video thank you for all the knowledge and expertise!
at about 46:47 you show a small element scope on your “monkey” gun what is this very small scope. It may match a compact Wildcat. Where can I learn more about this one. ?
The scope is an Element Optics - Immersive Series 5X30 Prismatic Riflescope . Utah Airguns has a couple of videos highlighting the Immersive Series here on UA-cam. What I would like to know is what kind of Scope Cam is mounted on it at 46:28?
nice thing on the double bottle adaptor is that a longer bottle(to be precise two) does not interfer with a shorter gun with big silencer cause the bottles are left and right from the silencer ... a short compact gun but with lots of air for high shoot counts with high power ... with a lingef bottle one needs to mount a long barrel.. with double bottle you can mount shorter or longer barrel without problems the impact is "Lego for adults" 😅
Lots of information to covered here but I would of liked it if you talked more about some of the air stripers that are available hey maybe a video can be done with just the air striper someday , Thanks for the great video .
Thanks Matt! Would you mind telling me in your opinion, what calibre in the FX impact would you suggest is the best all rounder for medium to small game, small pigs down to rabbits or even the odd rat lol. Mostly shooting under 100m for all of this 🤙🏻
I bet he would probably say .22 as most ppl would probably agree there are so many projectiles in different weights and with power upgrades available it’s probably the best all around caliber there’s a channel on youtube where a guy hunts coyotes with his mk2 in .22 cal it’s all about shot placement but hey I’m not telling you it’s right it’s just what some ppl choose to do with there impacts
Thanks for covering all of that! Re: clocking that custom brake... All he needs to do (and he may have this already incorporated) is include a shims pack with the brake that the end user can use to install and click the brake themselves. 👍👍
What after market parts do they have for the dreamline, because I don’t see much, yes the dreamline is the lowest in the line up, but it can compete but there’s not much of a selection to upgrade the dreamline….. the bottle adapter could be upgraded , because the threads were out after bottle changes
Hi Matt, Thanks for the informative video. Have a question on the double bottle adaptor. is the best way to tune the regs. Do you have to remove them simultaneously or one at a time?
Hi Matt, the PRS (Precision Rifle Shooting) no longer does the buttpad's for the FX Impact. They only do it for the Daystate, and Brocock and HFT guns.
Haha APW! When are you and Pieter Malan aka Impact Shooting going to have a collab or two? Convert him to using high spec air rifles occasionally! Haha it'd be sweet.
Hi Matt, is Hein Fromann developping his tensioner kit + the new shroud for the FX brand ? Or is this an external project for another brand ? Can you tell us about availability ? Or is he developping this for Doux Technologies ? Thx in advance for any reply
Hi guys I loved this video but i need some help because i want to buy n pcp air rifle to shoot some meduim size game what do you pcp do you guys wil say is the best for the game i want to shoot
The cc (size) of a bottle doesn't have anything to do with the pressure (bar) The bottle can be tiny or very large and be made, designed to operate at, for example, 300 bar or any other pressure.
Can we put fx impact .177, 700mm Barrel kit in my fx maverick?? ,Because I want 700mm barrel in my fx maverick for .177...but they don't sell for that..
How are you doing frend Matt Riova very nice about the services of the sale in the FXC world and I owe the first version of FX XT, which followed the 6.35 force 75 Joule Gul and this power enough to kill any medium size as the birds and the victory of the rocky donance at 150 yards, Lu'a'a the fashion has been a great fresh carrot
hi matt , ekke wil net graag hoor watse pcp , beveel jy aan vir my dogter wat wil skiet by die skool , in ons dae het ons nog die weermag se .22 gebruik , jou raad en hulp sal baie wardeur word , kalahari groete
It surprises me you didn’t cover anything about carrying the gun, the impact needs a decent sling or shoulder strap. I find I have to carry my M3 by the scope walking round with it all day.
Im selling am impact .35 in 800mm with donny fl, saber tactical gear, grip, and an element titan FFP if anyone is interested...woth hard fx case and less than 100 rds through it. About $3300 worth of stuff for a lot less!
@@josh9465 mine does..sent it back to agents,it came back still leaking ,2x screws missing from barrel tensioner AND gun bent above the mag well so cocking lever jammed back..managed to fire one mag in 3 weeks.
@@josh9465 not from new, but I think I let the rifle sit for too long on only 100 BAR. The rifle hasn't had any more than 1 tin of pellets through it. Australian dealership has changed hands after decades and now I don't even know if there's a dealer who's any good at working on it, add to the fact that the rifle has to flown damn near a 1000 or kilometres away 🙄🇦🇺
Maybe I’m just terrible at Google, but can anybody buy one of those over the barrel silencer/tensioner kits? I tried to Google Hein Frommann, but I can’t find anything product wise. I went for a 700 mm barrel on my impact, and it would be great to not have an additional silencer hanging off the end of it. Why doesn’t he want my money?!
I don't know about the impact but both the MKIII maverick compact and normal absolutely are garbage. I sent them to FX 8 times to fix th regulator from leaking. The wildcat MKI I had before that same situation, hole in hole groups but means nothing when its time to go hunting and u look at ur regulator guage and its down to nothing. Time to RE ZERO, RE chrono. etc etc
This really was an amazing video. I love how it isn’t just brand whoring.. you objectively break down each piece and where will and won’t be useful.
Matt, in times when I am in a bad mood, your enthusiasm always kicks me up again. Thank you for your willingness to share your awesome experiences!
Fantastic video Matt explaining so much as there's so many different options. This has to be the best video I've watched this year. 👏 👏
Thanks Matt yet another of your very good informative videos please do not think of retiring.

Another great video. If you lived in the states (no caliber restrictions) and could only afford one gun, which would you choose, what caliber and why?
You can turn the rear cap on your shroud and put an oring groove in it to fit your shroud over a carbon tensioner. My research had shown a spacer type shroud tensioner gets really close to the same results with the cost of more bump sensitivity.

I am glad you mentioned the Stud magazines. I had not heard of them so I looked them up on youtube. They look great. I ordered one today!
This video is timed perfectly!
Just got my Impact yesterday (also my first rifle) after binge-watching your videos.
Great video and advice! Thanks Matt!
Do you have a link for the magazine with the magnetic cover? Thanks

Great, great video. Thanks so much. I am right at this point thinking of which gun to get. I’m upgrading my RWS career 707.
Thanks Matt really appreciate the info...looking forward to the next video

At 46:28 What kind of Scope Cam are you using with the Element Optics - Immersive 5X30 prismatic scope on your "monkey hunting gun" ?
What are the sling options for the impact for hunters who want to be able to sling it?
How long until the m4 do you think 🤔
The over barrel silencer has been around for a while with centre fires my wildcat .22-250 one is like it and works brilliant
Wish you could find some time to test other airguns also. I enjoyed those videos a lot. 👍🏻
47:18
Do you happen to have more information on this setup on your channel?
As usual, great video Matt!
I just loved this thank you!
When can we expect to see the M4?

Do you have any idea when the impact m4 will come out ?
Hey Matt, great vid, do you know if they are going to implement any of the new Panthera tech into the Crown Platform?
Hi Matt, great video I like the look of the green impact I guess it's cerakote did you buy it like that? From the UK 👍
Lots of cool stuff my interest is air so a 580 300 bar bottle for my wildcat mk3bt sniper in 22cal. 👍👍
Thanks you Matt please keep your video 👍🏆
Good vid, Matt!

does stiffen the gun with the new top rail add accuracy?? does it make 5 or 10 shot groups smaller?
Hi Matt, Thanks for the informative video. Have a question on the double bottle adaptor. is the best way to tune the regs. Do you have to remove them simultaneously or one at a time?
Long live the fx impact the best air gun in the world
I’m having trouble finding the link for the probe, can you please provide me with it. Thank you so much Fred.
Hi Matt, the PRS (Precision Rifle Shooting) no longer does the buttpad's for the FX Impact. They only do it for the Daystate, and Brocock and HFT guns.
Witch is weird because that’s where the real money is probably aoa poisoning the well
I like the dreamline tactical myself but we are limited in the uk
nice video👍
Can you tell us where you got the carbon gauge cover?
Get yourself a carbon tube with the same outside diameter and cut it to length
Haha APW! When are you and Pieter Malan aka Impact Shooting going to have a collab or two? Convert him to using high spec air rifles occasionally! Haha it'd be sweet.
That is a great video. Thnx Matt
Hi Matt, is Hein Fromann developping his tensioner kit + the new shroud for the FX brand ? Or is this an external project for another brand ? Can you tell us about availability ? Or is he developping this for Doux Technologies ?
Thx in advance for any reply
Hot tip. To index muzzle devices shim washers are used to get correct alignment. At least in the military armourer world LOL
Amazing
Wow what a delight
What about making a 45 degree bracket so you can position your pressure gauges for your impact in the same way as the Panthera?
Nice pcp rifle 👍👍👍
Where can I get the laminated wood grip at
Can the new M4 handle 300 bar bottle with only 1 reg now?
Is there such thing as an add-on mechanism (electric? pneumatic?) that works the auto-cocking mechanism, making the gun more "semi-auto"?
Where’s all the Dreamline extra’s that was sold as the best modular setup?
Nice ❤
Beautiful guns
Hey Matt
Please can you give me your opinion on the reximex throne gen 2.
Hi guys I loved this video but i need some help because i want to buy n pcp air rifle to shoot some meduim size game what do you pcp do you guys wil say is the best for the game i want to shoot
Can you fill your Impact to 300 bar with a new bottle ie700cc.Or do you have to change the first reg?
The cc (size) of a bottle doesn't have anything to do with the pressure (bar)
The bottle can be tiny or very large and be made, designed to operate at, for example, 300 bar or any other pressure.
Will you please do an fx impact m3 30 caliber specific tune guide please I can't find any specific information it's a 177. 22. And 25 Cal
Can we put fx impact .177, 700mm Barrel kit in my fx maverick?? ,Because I want 700mm barrel in my fx maverick for .177...but they don't sell for that..
