Very nice but a very low shot count. I love the stock.

Cheers Phil,   

Does more than 25 more like eighty but when the gun was crono'd  the best 25 only varied by 18fps so i tend to get the gun in this curve when shooting vermin.

My FX Royale is at 28ft/lb and I'm getting 90-100 shots a fill. I'm going to tweak it upto 35ft/lb see how it groups, shot count will probably drop down to 80. Super lightweight setup.

At 45ft lb, 25 shots doesn't seem to bad to me, what would you expect and from what size bottle?

Cheers

I have the FX Impact .25 fac producing 95-105 shots per fill at 47.5fpe, not sure what size the bottle is but around 500cc

What pellets are you using Phil ?

[Deker 3,453]

Crumbs, circa 100 shots at 47.5ft lb sound pretty impressive to me!

After testing most of the .25 pellets available, the best groups went to AA Fields 25.4gr with JSB King Heavy in second however I started testing H&N Baracuda Hunter Extreme which gave good results but I confess to sticking with the AA as they just make rabbits simply fall over dead. 

 

If you go the .25 route Mitch, don't waste money on H&N Grizzly.....................................the worst pellet on the planet, grouping at around 3'' at 25mt so god only knows what they would be like at 40mt let alone 70 - 90mt that the AA will perform to.
