Do you have it pre-ordered with someone

No waiting till the 700s are produced so they get to the 800s

Looking back at the email, I think they were referring to the solid barrel not the bull barrel.

Spoke to a gentlemen for my pre- order which was 47 days to date & he said a few more weeks. For the Bull barrel to arrive , 700 I went with .22 cal Panthera , Going to try 40 grain Altaros, & the Ace going to put the 2 brands to the true real world test , by a honest true test.

They’ve been on back order at most places. I was lucky to get one from The Pellet Shop. One of the big three had one listed and then apologized to me as it was a mistake and they were sold out.

What set up did u end up getting , To my knowledge no 800 Bull barrels

Panthera MKII .30 700mm and then I bought a 1:40 pellet liner. I was told originally that bull barrels wouldn’t be available for quite some time. I really wanted the Benchmark, but was told they also would not be available for quite a while.

 

[Auto1191]

Great setup u can't go wrong shooting pelets

It has been 55 Days since the Panthera MK 2was received at Dealer still no Bull Barrel

 

[Auto1191]

70 Days & counting March 26 till today, June 4 I hope someone in the higher position in FX reads & responds

 

[Auto1191]

II opted out of the Bull Barrel for the Panthera. F X could not deliver in a reasonable time frame March 26 tto June 6 marks 72 days. Not blaming my Dealer for FX mishap where I purchased from but FX. I am sure all the influencers will have theirs at the big meets, but not the true customers. Still no response from FX. Truth be told The only way to make this right I'm my opinion is a N/C upgrade, for my extreme patients, & time loss If FX chooses to respond they can contact the Dealer posted in this thread.
