Panthera I LOVE my Panthera FX Hunter Compact .22 (but not as much as my Brocock/Brk Atomic)

[skyking964]

I have had my Panthera Hunter compact with folding stock now for about a month. I bought it at Talon Tunes, as Pryamyd Air and Utah Airguns did not have it in stock in 22 caliber. I love it. Here's a target that I shot today at 30 m with JSB 25.39 redesigned deep pellets. At 812 fps. Reg 145 bar. This is what I shot today, a full magazine, (target with green) 18 shots at 30 m and needless to say I am delighted. I am also experimenting with the JSB Grands 28g but I think I'll stick to redesigned deep 25.39g. If I was a better shooter, the group would have been better.

PS: I love the Hunter Compact so much that after I got it I bought a Panthera 600mm dual bottle and this unbelievable group (the black bullseye target) is TEN SHOTS at 50m. I was afraid to press my luck and try more shots. This was Zan 30.5g .218 slug. Now I'll add a .30 cal barrel to the 600mm.

That's some mighty fine groups! Stretch out the bigger panthera past that with Slugs yet?

But what about the Atomic!

I had a Maverick and wasn’t a fan of the trigger, FX hasn’t improved their triggers so it makes me shy away 100% me just being a snob.

I’m sorry if I didn’t make it clear that the target with the black Bullseye is from the Panthera 600 mm with 30.5, .218 Zan slugs. Simply unbelievable and amazing. That particular one, that target with the black Bullseye, was 10 shots and I was afraid to Press my luck by trying more.

You were clear, My question was have you shot slugs out of it past 50M yet? 50m is cool and all but not too impressive for a slug gun My S510 does that with with 18gr pellets most days (no wind). The slug benefits are usually realized past 50, that and my brother is still contemplating a 600mm dynamic to shoot out to 50-150Y with, so I'm just wondering. My Avatar picture is 5 pellets @ 50Y with the S510 4 where same hole and the one went a hair right, 18gr Jsb pellets!

I understand agree that slugs make most difference beyond 50 yards/meters but I can only shoot as far as 50 in my backyard. So I do that 50 every day for an hour or two. I need to go to the range, which is not close to me, to shoot 100 and 200. I'll let you know results when I do. (of course), Also bear in mine that that Panthera 600mm group on target with black bullseye was 10 shots.

Ahh same here, my property set up (corner lot) only really allows for 60 yards to shoot safely, I go to my parents to stretch out the pellet launchers. That is still mighty impressive though... groups like that @ 55Y should still be excellent at 75/100Y for sure!

how many shots do you get shooting the JSB redesigneds at 815fps and would it be possible to shoot them at around 900fps?

I am going to fit 480cc in the front of mine and move the 300cc to the back
