Never apologize for rambling. I love when you ramble on. 99% of the time it's the additional information I was curious about.
Those are the glasses of a man who knows what he’s talking about😎
Reminds me of Dustin Hoffman

Those are the glasses of a man who should be wearing a red and white sweater and hat combo, hiding in a busy street scene. And, yes, I'm wearing my readers as I write this, even though my wife says they look like ladies glasses.
Let's go hunting 😄✌
Love Teds energy and passion here! You can tell he’s excited and the information just flows!!
Ted is my Role model in selecting pcp i always follow his opinion rather than anybody else in the industry . He is more impartial , honest and upto date on knowledge of pcp . God bless u
Ahh wonderful,the god of airguns has stepped down from the pantheon above to be amongst us mere mortals once again and to give us his valued opinion on the M3, Ted its always a pleasure.
From an old man who scratches his wrists.
Cheers Ted
You gave me lots of videos to watch while I recovered from survey and renewed my interest in shooting.

Fantastic to see and hear from you. I just picked up 3 M3's from Trenier Outdoors, all .22, two Sniper and one 600mm (added a 580cc bottle as well). Really looking forward to your tunes, class is in session ! Thank You Ted.
So good too see ya back on TH-cam, we all want more vids Ted, can’t get enough. Take care.
What’s up Buddy , cool glasses . Great video as always
Your freaking honesty is what i really miss ted! Happy to see you again ted! Hope you doing fine. Keep safe.
Always a pleasure to watch Ted...Good point on the Fx packaging...What about pulped pressed recycled cardboard!!!!
Anything from Ted is a well treat
Absolutely!!! Thanks Ted!!!
Well said on the packaging , no need for more plastics .Always enjoy your take on FX guns .
the rezone to use that box is to protect the slug from damage. FX is al about perfection. overkill maybe
i’m 47 & wear purevision multi-focal contacts & use bio true fluid. excellent combo that cures old eyes & the fluid keeps em soft & not plastic feelin.
keep on rockin Ted
🇺🇸🤘😎
ps. scopin thru specs suuucks
Can't wait for the next video! I still miss the Matador days.
Wow, excellent! Really appreciate your knowledge & honesty, very rare in today's population, also your willingness to share your hard work with the rest of the impact community, best of luck to you and your future!
Merry Christmas Ted. Thanks for all the work you have done to promote airguns.
I can only re-iterate what every body says great to see you back. I hope your well!
Always a good day when I get a notification saying you posted a video, always informative, thanks Ted.
Very happy to see you and that you are well..
You got it right on the slug packaging from FX. Looking forward to the testing. Thanks Ted.
been following since ur series explaining mildots and stuff. im glad to see ur still at it.
Finally you are back. Bought a crown mk2 .22 500mm and recieved it a month ago. The weather here in north of sweden is realy bad right now for shooting so will have to wait for next year. I just enjoy new content from you until then
Ted you were the individual that got me into Airguns! I bought a Impact because of you in 2016. It was in central Michagan at shop that owner had been in the industry since smooth rocks propelled from the bottle made of rubber then called a ballon. He knew you and said he competed against you many many years ago.. just for that I asked for a autograph that said I know Ted…lol. Your genuine approach to whatever your doing is what keeps many of us excited yet comfortable to learn the things you share !! I’m a corporate pilot and the next time anywhere close to you .. I’ll trade a ride for a lesson in the ways the Michael Jordan of Airguns! Southern Oregon is home and if you make it here one day many will lay peddles at your feet,,
Yeah, he got me hooked too...
My relatively early MK2 had a superior liner without the big port. Same for my early Maverick. I bought the HUMA ports and I had an excellent improvement of about 20 FPS each. I also was able to lower my regulator to 105 bar on the Impact (22 with 700mm) and 90 bar on my Maverick 22 with 700. A HUGE improvement on the MK2 was the HUMA bottle regulator. It levels the field. I only shoot benchrest shoot and I saw you @ RMAC! Keep up with the good work. You have always helped me, especially think outside the box.
Nice to see you! Thanks for calling out the silly FX holder - pointless plastic is a big problem.
Hi Ted love watching your videos, about 10 years ago I started to get back to airguns and immediately when I went to TH-cam to educate myself I was lucky enough to find you! You still my favorite guy! Anyway I didn't know what rabbit hole I was going down but nice to know there are others as crazy about this hobby as I am. Have a great day Ted!
Yeah, the one disappointment I had when I got my mk2 impact was the trigger.
I was also disappointed that no reviewer was ever critical of it. They just called it a fully adjustable 2 stage trigger.
When in theory It’s not true. The only way to make that trigger light…is by completely removing the first stage.
To prove the point, Ernest roux has a video of how he shortens the pressure spring, and actually has to manually reset the trigger when de-cocking the gun.
Ted. you got me into PCP realm . Wow! it's been 12-13 years ago or maybe more and though I'm not a high end gun owner my pesting has certainly improved, Thanks for your continued sharing and Thank You for all you've contributed! Respectfully
We haven't seen you in a while either, thanks for posting and sharing your knowledge of the hobby with us ... I look forward to your next video.. Greg W.
This sure was a nice treat to have for Halloween! Thanks.
I always get so excited when I get the notification that you have a new video up to watch. Looking forward to range day!
Ramble on Sir! You have my vote...
Always good news when I see anther Ted post! I get worried when I don't see you post for months at a time. Hey man, were the same age and if you are just now needing readers, you're in good shape. Wish I only needed 1.25's. I need 2.0's to keep from getting headaches doing detailed stuff. Good to hear from you again.
Completely agree on the packaging man, glad you said it. Amazing rifles.
Wow you are back i cant wait for all you knowledgeable info on the M3 because of you and all your videos i bought the M3 i first started out with the Benjamin armada .25 and than had to have the Impact M3 .30/ .25
Excellent as always, got an urge to watch Harry Potter, can’t work it out.
I was thinking more about listening to some Les Claypool and Primus.
🤣😂🤣😂
I love your style and incredible content. You share your thousands of hours of experience to all of us. In minutes, you convey months of experimentation. I am looking forward to seeing more.
U.K. Sure listens hard to you. We missed your energy enthusiasm and what's going on in your head. Now get down the range with them and post the video.
Keep making us smile, English Jim
It's always refreshing and energizing to see your enthusiasm and passion. :)
Good to see you sharing again! Always enjoy watching and listening.
I gave up at 45 I might have made 47 if I could figure out how to make my arms longer. Excellent video by the way.
Ted…have missed your videos. Thank you!
Good hearing from u again. Most of this went over my head, but entertaining none the less.
Looking forward to the range results.
So nice to see you back again Ted 🤓 I did a test of the STX and the STX Superior in 500 mm, while Im waiting for the 600 mm in .177. Huge improvement in accuracy! Waiting for the next video!
Omg, the legend is alive! Happy Holloween dude! Thanks for posting. I have been binge-watching all your videos for 3 months now.
Very valuable information about the difference between those goodies , thanks
Ted you are a rock star!! You are appreciated for sure! I really appreciate all the time you take to do the testing and all the editing of your videos. There is no way I could find the time and be able to afford to buy all the different ammo and test. You save us all a lot of time and money and I thank you for all your hard work.
Aloha Ted. In paintball, when we made the switch to HPA (High Pressure Air) from CO2 (probably in the mid 90's), the reason we used double regulators was for better consistency. The output of a single regulator is inverse to the input pressure. So as you take shots and your tank pressure (input) drops, the output pressure of the regulator rises. In paintball, that increase in pressure would result in higher paintball velocities, often resulting in "hot gun" penalties (exceeding the maximum tournament/field allowable velocities) which would result in massive point losses or even expulsions or disqualifications. The second regulator would reverse the effects of the decreased input on the first regulator, so as the output of the first regulator spiked, it would cause the output of the second regulator (the final output) to drop, keeping velocities more constant. Of course all of this is assume you are operating within the nominal operating parameters of your air system. BTW love your channel. Don't have a PCP yet, but thanks to watching your videos over the years, I feel I have added a ton of knowledge to help me finally pull the trigger. Mahalo and keep up the great work.
Mahalo kunta kinte young skywalker!
Nice to see Ted all excited again.
Just a thought though. A little less coffee before you make your videos.
I had to rewind every few seconds just so for my brain to keep up with all that AWESOME, AWESOME stuff you're telling us. Lol
Can't wait for your next video, and thank you Mr. Bier, sir.
Was so glad to see you putting another video out! Can't wait for the next! Especially interested in .25. I have Maverick that likes the 29gr nielsens as well.
More videos! More Ted!
Good to see you, Ted. Nice explanation...and I agree in the FX hybrid packaging.
Great to see you again, I've purchased a m3 in 22 cal, can't wait to hear what your recipes are for different projectiles
Yeaaahhh! Wish we got more Ted vids! Always good to see you've uploaded.
Hey man. many Years ago you influenced me to purchase my first pcp a .22 discovery. After a maurader .25 and a divorce Im back in the game!! Ty man for influencing me years back. I'm now an owner of .457 with 500 plus ft/lbs and a semi auto .30 😁😁😁
When is FX coming out with a belt fed 100 round semi auto .22 cal pester?
Glad to see your back bro!
The rambling is the whole reason we subscribe to this channel lol
Ted you are the coolest geek on you tube please don’t take this wrong way I’ve been watching you for years you are the reason I own two FX rifles the new wild cat and the latest Maverick. I didn’t know anything about pcps before I started watching you. Ted keep up the good work you are very entertaining. 47 years old you are still young I will be 60 in August.
You're ALWAYS a breath of fresh air Ted. I'm so glad you picked up on what I've been saying about the sub 12 UK spec with reg pressures being low, believe about 54/60bar, i always felt the dual reg would be great for them. As for my Impact MK2 25cal, I have no plan or desire to change to the M3. Its currently on 150bar reg but able to go over 105 ftlb with ease. 😁 Looking forward to seeing the next video buddy
Glad to see you Back Ted,
I smoothed out and polished my stock pellet probe , I get better speed than the pin probe , I was surprised .
I am also sold on the carbon fiber barrel sleeve, it makes a difference when I shoot the heavy slugs at higher speeds .
Convert the old power adjuster to the M3 , it gives you a finer and linear adjustment .
Totally agree , NSA is my only choice for slugs for my MK2 in consistency and price , also glad they moved out of Ca to Mo.
Outstanding shipmate. Press on. USS Kitty Hawk CV-63 Jan 1980 to July 1983.
It's good to see you again. I just bought my first pair of readers I don't need them but if I read for more than 30 minutes I start to get migraines so I'll take the precaution.
Besides the knowledge I gain from your expertise, I must say that you are a character (in a good sense).
Hey Ted, great technical review as always. My M3 manual says the roller on the quick tune system is to fine-tune speed once you've selected one of the 16 settings of the wheel. The way you put it sounded like the roller was the major setting? My M3 turned up factory set at 70bar on the second reg, 16 on the wheel, and about 3 on the roller (not checked the valve adjustor - it only arrived yesterday). At these settings it pushes jsb hades at 950fps. I'll try your 115bar for the hybrids - sounds good. What setting did you use on the Valve Adjuster? We need some kind of online list of M3 recipes to include: Caliber; Projectile; Liner style & length; 1st reg bar; 2nd reg bar; valve adjuster position; Wheel Number; Roller Position; velocity expectation.
Would save a whole lot of people a whole lot of time and money!
Glad to see ya make some content again. Thanks. Cant wait for range day. Take care.
I’m not a GREENIE type guy but I agree with you “JUST FUNCTION” is okay with me.
Ted you forgot your leather apron and oversized rubber gloves......or maybe just a lab coat.
Good stuff. Good to see you posting and agreed re: the packaging of the fx slugs. I recently tried some if the zans and they come in a very similar package. Just box 'em ( nsa ) or tin 'em please.
The difference with zan is you get double the amount for less money and a couple free targets too!
@@samsawyer2145 plus their expansion properties are hard to beat
Great video Ted. Thank you for the info, You always help us out a lot, thanks man!
we love you ted i know the video was about the guns but glad to see that your okay and well
47 is about when I joined the reader club too. Great stuff and looking forward to range day.
Worth the wait, now have a better understanding of the Impact range. Agree with you on the packaging
Love the new magoo's, bold statement smarty guy. Love the intimacy, having you back online and looking fwrd to the next chat my friend. Peace on you and happy happy happy Thanksgiving.
I was going to comment, but everyone has said my thoughts. You have a lot of love out their for you Ted. Respect earned not given. You've earned it.
Interesting information, look forward to range time Ted, good to see you again 👍🏻🇺🇸
Just sharing a thought. I put my bottle cover for my Airforce airgun on my 580cc tank to brake up its full length. looks/feels good more classy. Idk but it does it for me. Talon tunes airgun shop sell them plus FX items.
You know those guys who shoot animals and show their bodies come apart? You are their intellectual leader. I am proud of u .
When Ted uploads a video the airgun world stops and listens 👍
Nice to see you again Ted. i've got an M3 with 600mm .22 curious to see the test between 700 and 600 barrels. Happy Halloween 💀👻👽
Love it that you're back making content for us mere mortals Ted. I've learnt a lot over the years as a sub 12ftlb shooter in the UK, I'd say a decent percentage is from watching and learning from yourself. Thank you and keep up the amazing work 😎🤓
Good going Ted glad your back in the groove, luck forward to more content 👍
Thanks for the info! Can't wait to see test results!
Wicked video, so informative and delivered in terminology we can all understand. Thanks mate.
Great to see you again putting out some good info. More please
The only Chanel I hit like on and then watch the vid. Great to see you again mate!
Oh my God he's back!
Good to see you back Ted, I would love to see you do a vid on your FX Crown in .25 shooting slugs.
Good seeing you.
Daddy Ted blessed us today
Man it’s nice to see a video from you again! WE MISS YOU TED!
Great to see you back Ted and in, I would say Great spirits! A reborn TED?? Anyhow, always good info from you and no BS! Looking forward to see the comparison, cause I aint giving up my beloved MK II and changing to M3, firstly put to much Love and hard owned cash into it, and feel like the almsot two years I have had it, that I know it in and out, and also my calibers, but always appreciate Your Grand wisdom!
With that concluded, I just love your glasses.....Yeah....mine started when I was 52 and now I am 55, and have been thinking of getting me some new ones, and I like the design of yours. They look ringgit and, when knowing you, they can also take some beatings....Could not make out the brand, so if you would be so kind as to share that info, would be much appreciated! 👌🏻🙏🏻 Take care and welcome back from the good old Freezerinos!(God...always wanted to use that....from Alien) 😂
What you said about marketing was spot on that was good
Good to see you again. How about a test of a Benjamin Kratos vs. a Benjamin Marauder in .22. Thinking about purchasing one but unsure which one so far. Both have great stats from what I've read. It will be for squirrel hunting and target practice. I don't do long range shooting.
Glad your back and hope you and your are all good. I often wonder what do you use to fill your guns and tanks with…what compressor? I went through all your videos and couldn’t find anything on air sources used to keep your shooting. God bless.
Hello Ted. Thankyou!!!
its been a while its good to see you back , happy to watch you videos again ... best wishes to you
Thanks for the video Ted been wishing you'd make more but I understand You got the family life
Great to see you back in front of the camera Ted.
