Awesome shooting and yes I feel the same way about the leak f*** f****** FX I had to order a bunch of old rings to get it fixed on my front regulator on my M3 thanks for sharing be safe have a great day
Brought some of these slugs. The 30.5g go really well in my mk2 impact at 940fps. Group well at 30m. Will have to wait for a fine day and take them out to 100m. The 25.5g also very good. Almost better than knockouts.
I bought some of the Zan slugs, the shoot well out of my Impact M3 with 700mm barrel at 991fps the only slugs it does not like are the H and N and even those are not that bad. The very best was the NSA 24.8gn
I use Zan slugs exclusively ( 10gr .177 in sub 12 ft lb ) and goto say they are ridiculous out at distance compared to diabolo pellets, as for FX yea they suck.. Mate of mine has just bough the MK3 Wildcat and it's horrendous, air leaks, inconsistency and just general all round pain in the arse to make it shoot nice, it's put me off owning one for sure. I'll stick to my Brocock :P
Unfortunately NSA slugs are just too expensive in South Africa, they are 4x more xpensive than any other slugs, I would have loved to do some testing with them but I can't get myself to pay such a high premium for them.
@@2002ZRX1200R Yup, Javelins are expensive here as well but still 1/2 the price of NSA. With the amount of shooting I do I need an accurate affordable slug... lol. The H&N's tick that box as well as the JSB KO's but they are limited in weight choices.
@@2002ZRX1200R Interesting indeed, mine loves them. Do you have a newer model liner? I heart there are some production issues with them. Mine is first generation.
Always fun from Gerds tutorials. Thanks for the hard work but fun experiments and providing us with cost free experience. I note that there is a certain level of frustration with FX. My Wildcat Bt is in for a warranty issue. The level of technical or any support is Twilight zone here in Norway. Like JSB Beasts at 100M, FX and the seller are simply off the paper. Cant get 100Bar on the 1st Reg and the sellers tech says he and FX cant see anything wrong with the Regs. Do I need to give them the middle finger right in their AMP regs to get this fixed???🤣 Do you have an E-mail address for discussions?
@@AimSmall I really think we as FX Owners( Expensive guns) have to set up some kind of pressure group. All airguns have their problems. But come on, straight out of the box!!!! I can accept that 5 from any hundred guns will have problems. Mine is one of the 5. Thats not the issue. Why cant they fix it. They behave like a crooked insurance company that wont admit coverage.. The tech from GAME ON sent me a video showing him getting a first reg pressure of 120 BAR. Wow eeee! He said he could go even higher if he wanted to. So I carefully pointed out that from the video, he had adjusted the set screws, on both regs, so far out that he had probably damaged my set screw O rings. Even Ernest Rowe laments: how can they do this fucked up shit" with the seals. He puts it down to operator error! The tech from game on said that he and FX AIRGUNS cant find anything wrong with the regulators!!! I dont think the problems are with quality of the guns. Its the quality of the techs and support staff. I am now thinking of giving up on my life long hobby. Everything is turning to shit. 😂🤣
@@raymondclifton2440 I am having a serious look at the BRK Ghost, their build quality is a lot better, also less o-rings that can cause leaks. I own AA,Weighrach, Daystate and FX...Only FX is giving me head-aches. I am gong to put pressure on FX with my videos, I don't owe them anything and I am fedup with their nonsense, I have good tech support here, but not at the retailer, friends mostly. So I can get just about anything sorted, but for that price I do expect near perfection. Quality control is an issue with FX. They are making too much money and not caring about their clients anymore... That has a nasty way of boomeranging.
@@AimSmall Thank you Gert. I had prepared a long reply but pressed the wrong button and 30mins work disappeared. But the short version is thank you. You gave me the ammo to make my decision about the Wildcat. As far as I am concerned, it is now a Pussycat. I will opt for a refund now and take a trip down memory lane with Brocock. I had the old version 25 yrs ago. The one where you pumped pressure unto individual brass cartridges, probably the beginning of PCP's. Not much power but it realy was a light weight hunter. The ultimate bullpup of its day. I am tired of the dissapointments. I saw your video on is it the slugs or is it the rifle. I was as happy as you were. MMMn maybe. But the thought of having a Demon Brocock Ghost that is also a Silver fox, seems a perfect combination. Thank you very much indeed. Merry Xmass air gunnie!
4:34 Childish. Things fail. Your shooting might be ok but your gun is not tuned correctly. 30 testing should all be in one hole slightly larger than the slug/Pellet size. 99 % of pellets and slugs today are excellent quality and it comes down to tune. Your rifle sound wrong.

Many questions i had been answered with your videos thank you, for sharing
.
Brilliant video I love the 25.5 zan's best slug for my fx maverick 22
Goeie video Gert - die wind is nooit jou maat daar by julle nie. Zan slugs lyk belowend...
Wow, great video Gert.Keep them coming 😜
Thank you, keep on sending stuff I can shoot. lol
Nice grouping for 100 mtrs range, my friend...awasome 👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏
very good for light slugs - my M3 does 990 with Zan 40g .217
That is massive power.. 800mm barrel?
@@AimSmall yes 800 Sup Heavy and tungsten hammer
Nice shooting 👍
Senapan impian para bediler..nice acuration

Can't wait for the BRK Ghost....
@@AimSmall it's getting some good reviews that ghost ! Not sure I want to part with my sniper HR against one just yet tho..
Great video, congratulations. Did you try it in .217 cal? Would be interesting what are the results.
They were in .217...
@@AimSmall thank you for answer. Is speed around 980fps the best or did you try lower? I plan to shoot 23gr zan's at 940ish fps.
@@milos975 The ZAN's can be shot much slower, Have a look at the 1st test I did at 30m where I shot them at different speeds.
My mkii had a failure to seal due to a poorly machined valve face.
What program do you use to get the shot lay out? The round circles?
I use an App called Range Buddy
@@AimSmall Thank you Sir
Nice can work with that 👌
i am getting a fan of zan
Good concictent slugs and well priced.
Fwiw, my nsa 23.5's @ .2175 at 1060 stack at 100. 2" targets at 155y are no problem.

Wind is not our friend. Stringing left to right shows great groupings just need a better day. 😢
Indeed. The challenge is the wind is always blowing here... just need it calmer. lol.
Good stuff👌🏻
So glad I bought a couple Avengers instead of a gun with so many darn o-rings.🤷♂️💯👍
Whahaha. True. Had my share of leaks to date.
K1 is the way forward
