I have the original FX, but I was looking for one that can do airguns and firearms. I like Athlon as I own several of their scopes and I liked it better in reviews versus Labrador and the Garmin.
If you had AOA tune your, it should shoot extremely well right out of the box.
Here is a pic of the last HW50S .177cal tuned I had back in 2021 of groups at 25 yards.
Great review!That is such a great all around springer. The internals seem to be dead on with those velocities. The HW mod that they make is perfect for this airgun.
Have you tried it out yet? I have a tune kit coming for mine this coming Monday . Hopefully I'll have time on Dec 23rd to get it tuned the way I like them. I'll post the results.
It would be so nice if TN had a high end airgun dealer where we could at least go look at them before we buy them, and maybe even shoot them. One day maybe, one day.
Yeah, the Crowns are hard to beat. Single reg and easy to tune, if you pay attention and learn. I've been in air gunning a long time and have had a lot of airguns. I buy FX so I can do what I want. Not saying I don't like pre-set airguns, but I would have to buy more of them. not sure FX is...
I feel like you need a compressor over just having a carbon fiber tank. It took me a little while to figure out my Maverick when it came out, but after you learn how to tune them, its pretty easy.
Slugs are slightly slower because the back end is not sealed like a pellet. The parachute effect that a pellets has helps at the beginning and slows them down in the end. The heavier pellets not so much.
