Thank you , that is one of the best explanations of hammer weight verses pressure verses speed and tuneability . I just got a tungsten hammer that has weights that go from about 7gr to 15 gr and was wondering where to start . Niw I know it's going to be a multiple tunes to get exactly what I need .
to confirm: this morning I removed the tungsten hammer weight and light spring, replaced with the original hammer weight and spring. Lo and behold I'm still at 960 fps, have all move adjustment back in the macro wheel and my spread with 40 shots is 10...thanks for the knowledge you share
I have an impact m3 25 cal. 600mm I bought it to hunt small game and punch paper, at first i thought i wanted to shoot slugs and still do sometimes, it is a totally stock gun, after much frustration and several times taking dozens of shots over and over just to find the sweet spot i came to the conclusion that for me and what i do with it, its just not worth it, having to buy more and more expensive parts to add on to an already expensive gun. In stock form it will deliver 75+ fpe with a 34 grain pellet & 34 grain slugs. the range i shoot at (50 to 75) yards, i just dont need the slugs, the power kits, hammers, barrels, etc. What the m3 will do is shoot very impressive groups with pellets and can be a very quiet and powerful small game gun, once i got this mindset about it i have had great fun. Each to his own, thanks moose for another good info video!
I have the Gen 1 Slug kit with standard hammer in my Impact MK2 25/700 & I have no issues shooting 25.39 pellets or upto 50gr slugs 980fps on 148reg. I've always wondered about the slightly heavier Huma. With regard to the Tungsten, many don't realise exactly what it was designed for, to start it needs 165reg minimum & it has been known to snap the valve pin because of the brutality 🙂
I'm running an Impact M3 .22 standard (600mm barrel) with the slug probe and barrel port only (no other changes) with the FX hybrid 22 grain slugs. Very good results with standard STX liner with 1st reg. at 140 bar, second reg. at 90 bar (try and keep 50 bar difference for harmonics). Ok, its not shooting +1000fps, but high 800's - very repeatable and good 480cc air-bottle life.
Again awesome explanation. Just put a heavy in my crown. (Shoots crazy fast but no tune ability im not a fan) With this explanation and what I experienced in the 1st shots I'm going to the lathe and making my own hammers of different weights.
Great video moose ! Love this type of information . I made a mistake about the set screw a couple weeks ago (my friends fx dream tech that was only shooting at 200 fps). It wasn't down by the trigger set screws . It was up in the magazine well . Down to valve and hammer . When you get it out you can see the valve and hammer . We took out set screw and it instantly shot better . After a few minutes of adjusting he was as happy as a teenager loosing his verginity ! Went from 200 fps to 760+ fps and one hole three shot groups . I have a feeling the chipmunks are not messing around his place as freely as before . Lol another fx fan ! Keep up the great work bud ! 👍🍻
I have the M3 in 35 with 700 Speiror liner with V2 Dual transfer port. I've been testing a variety of pellets and slugs. My goal is to be able to tune the gun down for small game then up for Feral pigs. Haven't put in heavier hammers and spring yet as I also want adjustability. My settings are 170/120/16/4.7/line 6 or 12.12mm VA shooting NSA 93 same hole at 25yds and thumb nail at 50yds. @ 835fps and 144ft lbs. Then I switch barrels to the 700mm 30 cal.Superior Heavy and use JSB 50g pellets at 170/120/8/3.8/and 9.20mm VA.similar groups @ 805fps and 72ft lbs, Using the Huma Slug Probe and V2 dual hole transfer port. Can share your info with me from what you've leaned? Aloha, Mark
Spot on!! I noticed the tungsten hammer only starts allowing ES tuning from 140-145 bar upwards. You can tune for speed below that, but ES will be all over the place!! Another thing to watch is the length of the hammer spring. I do not know lengths for the impact, but for the maverick there are two versions: a 52 and a 56mm. The 56 allows for more power BUT is a lot less forgiving on ES level (impossible to get ES below 12-15 consistently). The combo 56mm spring & heavy hammer is an absolute tuning nightmare once you go to anything-but-very-high-power (
YES! Thank you for this! I dropped the tungsten in my 25 and was slinging 43.5 grainers crazy fast but it was taking my M3 to extremes I was not comfortable with. Loud. Violent and nerve racking . And just not enjoyable. Put the stock hammer back. Retuned to pellets and my happiness is back. I fell victim and got sucked into the go big trend. It’s not that great.
Just ordered the huma hammer set to get more tunable Fx M3. The 14gr hammer is just to heavy for finding a good tune for my 25gr slugs. Thanks for the detailed info. I didn't know there was something in between like the Huma hammers 👌👍
Awesome video .... great info I found out for me that the regular slug kit with Ernest rowe dual port and light value spring works for me in both of my fx impact..... I tried the huma kit with both hammer weights I tried the tungsten hammer etc ...and for me the the regular slug kit is good enough for me for shooting slugs thanks for sharing bsafe buddy 👍
Yes ,for my impact mk2.22, regulate 80 bars, it's the hammer stock 6 grammes for pellets 18gr, and i think a hammer 7,5 or 8,5 max for 25 or 28grs. I'm totaly ok with you for having a différents réglages with the impact.👍
Thanks for the video and all the people commenting. I was thinking bout adding the tungsten to shoot slugs. I am more interested in acuracy and how many shots I get then anything else.
Really good vid. this may be my issue. I installed the tungsten hammer with the light spring. Got maybe 10 fps. then added the pin probe got quite a bit, maybe 40 fps? BUT now my Macro wheel was ineffective. It could be on 1 or 16. Made no difference and also gave me about a spread of 30. I'm going to remove the tungsten...Thanks
Hallo, do you find brass material(shaving )around the hummer because I use huma 7.5 and I found a lot of brass material which It’s does not happen with original hammer weights
Wish I hand found this before I've spent hours trying to figure why the tungsten hammer is only giving me at max 800 fps... 🤦I'll be switching it back to stock
I'm curious, have you tested just adding the heavier hammer in the Huma Hammer Wt Tuning Set and still use the stock springs or just adding The Tuning High Power Springs and us using the original hammer?
I have both tungsten hammers for impacts and mavericks the mavericks is 26gr the impact ones I got weren't that heavy I think it was only 16 or18gr i believe ?
My M3/700 in 35 is set at 170/120/16/4.5/line6VA. Shooting NSA 93g at 840fps. If I raise 2nd reg above 120 fps drops. For ex. at 150 bar I got 800fps. Why is this?
Hey, great tutorial video. I have an FX Impact M3 power block 5.5-700mm. Installed only pin probe from Huma-Air. I shoot 30 gr slugs. But I couldn't adjust to stable speed, 10ms (35 fps) speed difference. I bought a Huma-Air slug kit but haven't installed it yet. The set includes two springs and two hammers. Accuracy speed for slugs at 280-290ms (920-950fps). Which of these to install on a rifle? Do you recommend putting both springs and a heavy hammer?
Put in the 14 g tungsten in my .25 sniper 700 to shoot 36 grains and the back reg 165 trying to get ta 1000 fps sound violent would the next hammer weight down be a better job
I wonder if a guy coukd shave a little off the back of that tungsten hammer to lighten it...i have a maverick 30 cal with that hammer on its way to me. Im ok with running 160 bar reg.....sure would be nice to have at least one pellet and one slug tune on the dial.
Hello, many thanks for your video. I am desperate as I am stuck with my Impact MKII; since 7 days I can't use it. My problem is I can't reach 150Bars into my plenum, I installed the regulator 11washers, regular set up )()()()()() but even opening quite much the set screw I can not reach the 150Bars. Why? If I unscrew more the regulator set screw it vents and blow out all the air of the plenum. Can someone help me? Many thanks.
I m getting 75 fpe & 915fps with 40 grains slugs with the rig pressure at 150bar with d standard hammer 700mm barrel I hav the fx impact mk2...I want to increase the speed so I guess I shud use a slightly heavier hammer ...do tell me 👍🏻
Hey Moose so I was looking to buy the slug power kit but I’m confused because Utah airguns has it but it’s description is confusing it say * x & mkII But If I go to another dealer it shows the same things you get it the picture but it’ll state it’s for the m3.. and then also no hammer is included just those washers you mentioned.. what do I actually need to know so I get the right one thank you I have a m3 thanks moose love the videos
Good info. I'm running an M3 with Huma transfer and NSA pin probe. 600mm barrel. Can't get the power out of it I thought I was going to get (75fpe) with 29.5 or 34.9 NSA slugs. Running 2nd reg at 160bar. Was going to buy the tungsten hammer, but now not sure if i should. What hammer would you recommend for this setup? Thanks for the info...
@@abitoutside Thanks for the info. Just talked to Tom at HPP on your recommendation. He called me right back and answered my questions. Ordering the Huma hammer tuning kit and the high power spring. He said that should do what I want to do with the gun.
@@abitoutside i have no clue on where to start but i would like to push a 22 or 23 gr. Slug 950 or around 40 to 45 fpe is that to much for a sniper wildcat BT?
Should be no issue at all buddy, if you contact www.myhighpressureair.com for that airgun he can get ya setup and we can make sure it is shooting that way for ya.
Just a small notice... Grams is "gr" in the US and not just "g"?

No, the hammer is subject to reg pressure directly, the stock hammer will be fine till you are increasing your reg past its ability to open the valve consistently
So to be clear with 150 bar and up reg along with Heavy tungsten Hammer you will be-able to adjust your gun well ( of course talking about heavier slugs ).?
I hate that tungsten hammer you are dead on right when you said Violent it’s extremely VIOLENT! The gun feels like ass!

I don't think the numbers you provided are valid, upon tests and recommendations from pro's, the dual ring hammer that comes in the slug kit should operate at minimum of 150 bar reg pressure if you are using the light valve spring.that applies with a bit more on the light huma hammer and you will notice that as you're using your gun. the 7.5 hammers can open the valve safely all the way to 168 bars reg pressure if you intend to go high reg pre's beyond 170 bar it is recommended to use the 14.5 tungsten hammer noting that the new power block regulator is designed to hold 200 bar reg pressure, so it is suitable for those who use high reg pressures on power blocks or modded regulators failing to accurately use the right hammer for the right pressures will lead to excessive air consumption (and huge velocity spread), slug wobbles ( or inaccuracy) or even valve rod damage.

So your saying to shot heavy slugs with heavier hammer then you need to gut your impact internals including beefier items such as valve.
Don't know what video you were watching but you commented on the wrong one.
Haha. No right one. No sleep 4am typing on phone maybe not clear.
If Heavy hammer is not tunable with stock internals. Would it be better to get everything else beefed up to handle heavy weight hammer to be so it can be tunable? ( heavier slugs ) ?
No, the hammer is subject to reg pressure directly, the stock hammer will be fine till you are increasing your reg past its ability to open the valve consistently

I hate that tungsten hammer you are dead on right when you said Violent it’s extremely VIOLENT! The gun feels like ass! What would you say if I put back the oem hammer and shoot slugs weighing between 29-33 grain would that be fine atleast until the US gets a batch of huma tuning hammers I’m not paying huma 49 bucks for something costing 16 bucks before shipping and VET fees !
Utah should have Huma tuning hammers in stock or check Talon Tunes
I don't think the numbers you provided are valid, upon tests and recommendations from pro's, the dual ring hammer that comes in the slug kit should operate at minimum of 150 bar reg pressure if you are using the light valve spring.that applies with a bit more on the light huma hammer
and you will notice that as you're using your gun.
the 7.5 hammers can open the valve safely all the way to 168 bars reg pressure
if you intend to go high reg pre's beyond 170 bar it is recommended to use the 14.5 tungsten hammer
noting that the new power block regulator is designed to hold 200 bar reg pressure, so it is suitable for those who use high reg pressures on power blocks or modded regulators
failing to accurately use the right hammer for the right pressures will lead to excessive air consumption (and huge velocity spread), slug wobbles ( or inaccuracy) or even valve rod damage.
Hahahaha, the "Pros" huh? Follow them since you know.
That 26.5gram tungsten hammer isn’t for an impact. It’s for Dreamliner, maverick wildcat etc. wtf man
Lol
