Always great to hear your voice and absorb the info you have to offer. I’ll wait a year and see what improvements FX makes and then decide which one I want. Thanks
I could listen to you talk airguns all day. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. Still my favorite airgun channel on TH-cam, Still the Top G!
Thanks for the video. I’ve been watching your contens forever. Been out of the airguns some years, but just bought my self the Panthera Hunter. Realy hope you will put up more content with this gun? Greetings from Denmark EU.
At about 1:48 youre being humble and gracious and accurate when you share the spotlight (rightly so) with Matt, 1776 and all the great shooters in the airgun blogoshpere; but, Ted I wouldn’t have been quite able to understand the varioius applied sciences that make the airgun sound….. crickets ….. But you just helped me to understand and assemble the path of air through the gun. Stuff I actually need to know. Amazingly wonderful education. You deserve your own praise Ted; the content is so good.
Thank you for the informative review. As always, you bring us into your work and efforts. I have been watching you for about 7 years now and have enjoyed your levity, thoroughness and candor.
I really appreciated that silverfish like wrapping itself around the trigger as you were talking about it like you were on some game show. Sorry for loading you down with comments but you know all hail algorithm.
We love you ted. Thanks for the video. I'm really looking for an actual backpacker so thanks for providing perspective on this video you got me into the hobby about 12 years ago. I love your videos and your attitude and personality is amazing
Awesome to see you on the 17.5gr NSA :) I have been shooting the hell out of them in many different airguns. Also, tuned right around 900fps. Cool beans. Awesome vid.
Wow that was fast Ted I asked for a TH-cam vid on your Instagram and Boom! I must be special LOL Just Kidding but the timing could not have been better....
Always informative. The data is always there. Scientific approach Ted. I had a crazy long conversation with a center fire enthusiast the other day about everything. He was shocked at what I knew, to only blow him mind when he asked what I shot. " airguns" crickets...
A great cover of this latest FX. Sad to say, it has now added yet another FX to my want list. I thought I only had to choose between the Wildcat MKIII or the Dreamline lite.
Ted my 10/22 is 7oz but I did my own trigger job its NICE for bench rest lol. Killer with those pellets. You got me started in PCPs years back and bought my first wildcat had it for a few years then sold it 3 years ago. WHY I was stupid. I just got a Impact M3 in 30 700mm but plan to get another wildcat for close backyard work. OR This Panthera is looking tempting
So, I bought the .25 cal hunter compact. It shot slugs just ok but I wanted better. I bought the new .25 cal slug liner in 1:16 twist and I cut it down and made a custom liner. I actually made mine 392mm in length which is a half inch longer than stock. Gained me about 4-5fps more velocity and a touch more time to gain stability. This now shoots 34 grain slugs at 940fps in a little bug hole group at 50. Fun little gun.
Long time no see , but worth the wait . Thanks for showing us this gun impressive, probably the perfect shooter for me in stealth mode . Looking forward to the follow up .
Why does the pellets start in the scope on the right of the retecal then hooks to the left the slugs stay on the right of the retecal.great to see you again. Hunting video with it up next?
I Been Watching you Ted since the Days when you had your 22 Benjamin Marauder and i Remember when you Switched to the.25 cal with with the Green Mtn. Barrel Thanks Ted you got me into PCP Airguns God bless you and Hope you are Doing well my Brother 💪🙏💯
hi mukka i still got the edgun 2.5 and shooting strong and my bullpupped hw100k. i bullpupped it myself in 2011. fortunatly they are still spot on as i cant afford the new ones without a mortgage lol...good to see you still going strong.
PEOPLE?! Olathe Kansas backyard at mom and dad‘s it was a co2 Air rifle and I was crept up on by Olathe‘s finest! I was just plinking some spinner minding my own business, apparently one of the neighbors didn’t even find out who they didn’t have the courage to announce themselves in. I knew all the surrounding neighbors by name. Yeah, needless to say, I needed a change of shorts that day!!! Ted your the best!! Thanks 🙏
hello mate!! I have done the same tune like yours but I have a little problem!! with slug the fps are stable!! with pellets not. i have 25 spread fps!! why??
Tell FX we want a real dedicated hunting Panthera .357, huge bottle, bigger plenum, 1:16 twist rate barrel. We want power to dispatch bull deers at 60 yards and putting out 260 Fpe, slinging a 93 NSA at 970 fps. Am I asking for too much?
I love your videos and your reviews Nobody Does It Better I wish you had a video that would tell me how to get my little cheap gauntlet 2 tuned up right! Unfortunately, I can only dream about guns like this .
Awesome review of the Compact hunter. Waiting to see field testing on pest videos by you. I like the duffle bag carry mode. Looks like you've moved homes. Congratulations.
@@Look_What_You_Did Hmm, about 1/10, because I didn't say it was a shroud, I used quotation marks. Shroud has got nothing to do with it, I asked whether or not the interesting PLENUM helped with harmonic dampening.
that's one impressive little gun! Everyone says you can't shoot slugs with short barrels just didn't find the right tune yet. I got my lowly little dreamtac compact to shoot slugs quite well actually.
The world needs more Ted's! Look at me, ive been into airguns for yaeeers, but now when Teds almost gone, ive been slippin over, over to crossbows n shite. Aint that a shame?!;) C'mon man! Give us more hits!..just a lite more.. I need my fix of sanity! ❤ from 🇸🇪 .
Nice to see you back at it. Got to meet you back in the day at the Arizona shoot. I still got the full auto smg upgrade you ever want to hit me up. Been following you for years. Im into Drones now and run a good business. Hit me up you need some drone shots. Part 107 in hand.
I have a cheap pcp hatsan At-44QE. Its way better than any spring gun so i like it. Shot count is bad. However it loves jsb hades and it does very good with the NSA 20.2gr .218 slugs. I want to upgrade to a FX gun but they are alot of $$$$. I could get a silencer for my 22 and be a ton cheaper. Ted thanks for all your videos over the years
I like to mount my scope low to the barrel to minimize holdover adjustment at short range. I want a short, light, 22 pcp - this is the closest yet to my ideal gun (currently shooting a prod and my R1 I have had for 30 years). If you get the FX guys to build a model with the action pushed as far back as possible to still allow cheek rest for a low scope mount, and also maximize barrel length - I will be first in line. Love the vids.
When the world needed him most, he showed up.
Perfectly said!
Couldnt agree more
Check! ✅
The last spoonbender. I dig it.
Your choice of sunglasses has been the most consistent thing in the last 10 years of my life Ted 😎

The sunglases can't be made by FX, could they? Should they?
Just a tip ;)

This… is a proper Airgun review. Ah.. refreshing! Nice to see u in action Ted.
Thanks for the insights Ted. Great to see you again!
I liked the little Knat showing off the trigger. 6:13
Just ordered one in .25 with folding stock. Can’t wait to get my hands on it. Thanks for the review.
Legit been watching this dude every now and then for like 10 years lol. He got more head shots then my cod career
Very generous to post all the findings on the channel to help others. 👍
Amen to that statement !
Ted saves us a lot of money and time .
Nice to have you back Ted.
Have been watching your videos sinds the beginning of ages.
so glad to see some new videos Ted hope all has been well in your world and keep making videos!
Thank you for the informative review. As always, you bring us into your work and efforts. I have been watching you for about 7 years now and have enjoyed your levity, thoroughness and candor.
You never miss a with your shots nor miss with your videos. Nice video dude.
YES! Glad to see you Ted!
These videos and passion are what ive missed.
Thanks for all the work you do on these videos!
I really appreciated that silverfish like wrapping itself around the trigger as you were talking about it like you were on some game show. Sorry for loading you down with comments but you know all hail algorithm.
I love that over the years his camera quality has dramatically increased, yet he uses the same mic as he did 10 years ago lol
We love you ted. Thanks for the video. I'm really looking for an actual backpacker so thanks for providing perspective on this video you got me into the hobby about 12 years ago. I love your videos and your attitude and personality is amazing
Thanks Ted always fun to watch and learn
I have got back into air gunning again at 57
Mostly due to you
Cheers from NZ
I'm 55!!
Been watching you sense I was in 6th grade. Crazy how I still feel exited to watch your videos. Still feel the same inside haha. OG Ted
I’m 21 now so about 10 years haha
Very interested in the new location - new lake house?!?! Niiiiice. Glad to see ya again Ted!
Nice review Ted, haven't heard from you for quite awhile. Your knowledge about air guns is quite phenomenal.
I’ve been watching you forever. I love your content. I can’t wait to graduate college so I have the money to get into this hobby some more.
Good to see you again Ted !
Awesome to see you on the 17.5gr NSA :) I have been shooting the hell out of them in many different airguns. Also, tuned right around 900fps. Cool beans. Awesome vid.
My Benjamin Cayden loves them at just over 900 fps. Moa at 100 yards when I do my part.
Great to watch a new video by the guy in white sunglasses agin! It has been a long wait.
Nice to see you pop up in the video feed again😊💪
Wow that was fast Ted I asked for a TH-cam vid on your Instagram and Boom! I must be special LOL Just Kidding but the timing could not have been better....

A great cover of this latest FX. Sad to say, it has now added yet another FX to my want list. I thought I only had to choose between the Wildcat MKIII or the Dreamline lite.
I love watching your videos Ted I wish you would do videos at least once a week.
Always a pleasure to watch your videos bud. Your enthusiasm shows! Keep them coming...
Awesome length gun for the truck!
You definitely have way more patience than me when it comes to testing ammo. 😂 Great video!
Hi ted love the videos from Ireland 🇮🇪
Ted my 10/22 is 7oz but I did my own trigger job its NICE for bench rest lol. Killer with those pellets.

Thoroughly enjoyed this. Thanks for flying all the lead Ted.
I am not a FX fan boy , But i have enjoyed all your videos from the very start, Keep them up , I will stay open minded on all brands.
Mat did good revies and other guys in SA. But you are the best from the best..
YES TED VIDEO YES!!!
Ted!!!!!! Great to see you!!
Good to see you Ted
Great video Ted. I enjoy the little secrets that you give people on how to tune there airguns.

FX is going to be out of my price range for probably a while, but a guy can watch and dreamline.
Ah, the Dreamline. An excellent product, love mine.
Long time no see , but worth the wait . Thanks for showing us this gun impressive, probably the perfect shooter for me in stealth mode . Looking forward to the follow up .
You' re still the Legend of Airgun World !
Hey Ted. thanks for the video. i’ve just bought a FX Panther Compact Hunter. I would love to see more content from you on this gun?
Nice! Ur white sunglasses is back
Why does the pellets start in the scope on the right of the retecal then hooks to the left the slugs stay on the right of the retecal.great to see you again. Hunting video with it up next?
Bro you haven't aged one but love to see it stay healthy kings
Hey Ted nice to see you again
Outstanding shipmate. Press on. USS Kitty Hawk CV-63. Jan 1980 to July 1983. Air gunner for life.
I Been Watching you Ted since the Days when you had your 22 Benjamin Marauder and i Remember when you Switched to the.25 cal with with the Green Mtn. Barrel Thanks Ted you got me into PCP Airguns God bless you and Hope you are Doing well my Brother 💪🙏💯
When that first shot string montage started playing, I thought my Playlist was playing since I've listened to continent so many times lol
Exactly the vid I was looking for. Great setup and explanations.
What are the reasons for shooting slugs instead of pellets?
YES TED YOU SURE COULD HERE THE DIFFERENCE JUST LIKE A WELL TUNED IMPACT. HARMONY I BELIEVE WE CALL IT LOL LOVE THAT LITTLE GUN
Thanx for another sick review , wild cat one is my dream gun , swear this air gun itching is worse than any mosquito bite
Thanks for such reveling video.. I was struggling to find a slug for my .22 380mm Burrell on my FX Crown MK2. THANKS AGAIN 👍
Who is this guy? I don't recognize him anymore. it's been so long. At least he still makes great videos.
You see guys with rifle and white frame sunglasses. You will remember..ohh...its Ted....
long time no see, good to see you back with this awesome info.
Great review. Thank you for your time and for doing all the slug testing
hi mukka i still got the edgun 2.5 and shooting strong and my bullpupped hw100k. i bullpupped it myself in 2011. fortunatly they are still spot on as i cant afford the new ones without a mortgage lol...good to see you still going strong.

The “people” that run fakebook banned my well established market place because i tried to sell a 177 co2 gun.
hello mate!!
I have done the same tune like yours but I have a little problem!!
with slug the fps are stable!!
with pellets not. i have 25 spread fps!! why??
Yes I have the same problem with pellets…. Haven’t tried slugs yet.
That gun would be nice with a red dot on a trapline!!! Good to see our Ted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How the hell you managed to install this rail picatinny!?
"shroud" = Plenum... That's interesting, doesnt that also stiffen it up and improves accuracy?
@@Look_What_You_Did
Hmm, about 1/10, because I didn't say it was a shroud, I used quotation marks.
Shroud has got nothing to do with it, I asked whether or not the interesting PLENUM helped with harmonic dampening.
That’s the idea. Like pouring concrete around the barrel. The longer the barrel, the more it helps prevent “whip”.
@@TedsHoldOver Given the 145 bar pressure around it, that's what I thought too.
Thx Ted, impressive bit of kit! May it serve you long and well 😁
Great video as always Ted. Can't wait for you to take the Panthera out to 100 yards..
that's one impressive little gun! Everyone says you can't shoot slugs with short barrels just didn't find the right tune yet. I got my lowly little dreamtac compact to shoot slugs quite well actually.
Similar tune/fps?
6:15 that bug was excited about the trigger too
Was wondering if one of you would spot that. He moved so smoothly it looked like special effects. 😄
This gun just put the “new” RAW Micro Hunter to shame. Might pick it up soon. Was considering getting a 2nd impact.
Very nice. I knew there were going to be more panthera minis and others.
Now we better get a hunting video of muskrat that you slap!!!
Ted's reviews are the only ones I trust besides Matt
Great video as always!! We need more!
ar-15 compatible stock tubes?
I always enjoy the videos you put out thanks
Good seeing content from you.
The world needs more Ted's!

15:04 reminds me of Choo-choo Charley shaking a box of Good-n-Plenty.
Looks like you got that addy script filled lol. Thanks for the great video
Great video Ted, love tye review mate. Awesome gun.
