scobydog Posted September 10, 2021 Report Share Posted September 10, 2021 Got a slot for a .25 fac air, would like people's opinions on the ones they own and use regularly, budget @ £1000, would like 60ftlb ish running pressure. Already have a .22 fac for rats and closer stuff, this is for slightly longer ranges on a very flat golf course, rabbits. magpies, squirrels, rooks ,crows and ring neck parakeets are the pests to be controlled. Tks in advance scobydog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaman Posted September 10, 2021 Report Share Posted September 10, 2021 (edited) Well imo only one to get is FX wildcat or impact , but it would have to be second hand for that type of money . I have mine running @ 70 ftlbs with 33 gr ZAN slug or 72 ftlbs with 35 gr ZAN slug or I can take it down to shoot at 50 ish ftlbs .

Ultrastu Posted September 10, 2021 Report Share Posted September 10, 2021 Fx wildcat if your looking for .25 cal . They are brilliant in .25 Mine runs kings at 45 fpe My mates hades at 50 fpe . Both awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaman Posted September 10, 2021 Report Share Posted September 10, 2021 Only problem with the older wildcat is the stupid 8 shot mag and low shot count . The new mk3 has a better mag and a few more shots . Impact 28 shot mag even @72 ftlbs I am getting about 65-70 shots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scobydog Posted January 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2022 Quick update, Just picked up a FX Impact mk2 sniper edition, with superior liner and original liner, the latter is unused. It's seen very little use came with a lot of slugs and pellets and a carbon moderator bang on £1k, glad i held out for this. I will get the scope on it and set it up then let you know how it performs. Thanks again for all your advice gentlemen, Scobydog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again for all your advice gentlemen, Scobydog Sounds good 👍🏻 Lots of us are shooting ZAN 33 gr slugs at 970-975 FPS with fantastic results way beyond 100+ yards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scobydog Posted January 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2022 Cheers lads, will grab some Zan slugs when these Nielsen's are nearly out. Got a full tin of Hades 26gr, apparently very accurate with these. Scobydog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
