Others FX Streamline .177 with fancy walnut stock

[pepper51]

I found this at a dealer and was attracted to the ambi stock with some nice figure in the wood. The Hawke 4-16 SFP AO and IR was already on the gun. I added the DonnyFL KOI moderator I found used. It really likes JSB 10.34 gr pellet. At our indoor 50-foot range it is fun turning aspirin tablets into dust. As I understand it, the Streamline was replaced by the Dreamline. I have not had the opportunity to handle a Dreamline, but I like this one.

Good looking FX. I alway like the looks of a classic walnut stock.

She's a beauty and an accurate shooter. Shooting aspirin and seeing that puff of dust never gets old!

That's a good-looking Streamline @pepper51
I'm curious though
Does it really need that much of a moderator?
Just asking
Not criticizing

Thanks Edward.
I was looking for a moderator for the Streamline and there just happened that someone had the like new KOI for sale at a very good price. That's why I bought it and put it on the Streamline.
I don't know much about moderators (obviously} other than DonnyFL are regarded as good, and that the caliber use size should be next size such as .22 for .177 and .25 for .22. and so on. Ease of maintenance, parts, etc.
Your question raises another for me.
How do you folks select a moderator for a specific gun, caliber?
Thanks.

I love my streamline in .177 but I wish I had your walnut stock! It is a beauty. I'll have to check, but I think I have a Hugget on mine and it is extremely quiet.

I happen to have a good assortment of moderators on hand @pepper51
Which is testament to the fact that I am not very good at choosing them.
I prefer moderators that enhance the appearance of the gun and are not so long that they interfere with movement.
That said, I start small & work my way up.
I would not necessarily recommend this method.
However, it must be said that the Donny Fl moderators are IMO a very reliable option.
A Tanto or Tatsu would look well on the Streamline and probably quiet it nicely
Others will have different opinions most certainly
Let the games begin!

Just my two shush

I believe silent squirrel has one of those beautiful streamlines too

Indeed, I do.
It is a handsome, accurate Streamline 25 in a grey laminate stock that I bought in July from AGN member @Trucker3573
Whose avatar btw looks suspiciously like yours @Linehauler73
You've been made, Aaron.

Nice rifle with a beautiful stock. Hang on to this one because, if you'll notice, FX does not have any more walnut stocks on any of their rifles. This stuff is disappearing.

Darned if you are not correct, @jps2486
Doubting what you said I went to the UTAH site to prove you wrong.
The only new FX with a walnut stock was the DRS Classic.
I wonder if this is a temporary thing because for whatever geopolitical reason walnut is scarce, or if it's a permanent change.

just my 2 tree hugs

I am sure glad there are folks that still like walnut stocks. I keep trying to convince my grandson, but younger folks not impressed so much with wood.

Ha ha…no it isn’t I guess. I’m glad it is still a great gun.
