This is a fantastic review. Thank you for taking the time to do this, you get straight to the point and really show what the gun is capable of. Excellent work!
thank you very much i just like to be different most give a sales pitch and show how it can shoot at 20 yards i like to skip that and show what everyone is really interested in thanks for watching keep up the good work yourself all the best P.P.P.C
I don't know how I ended up here watching this video (googled air rifles for Xmas present🤷) but I'm definitely going to sub just because you sold me on the intro! well done sir!🤣 no BS is what this world needs more of ty!
thank you very much TIM i am glad you enjoyed a few different camera angles as well as the video itself thanks for watching keep safe all the best P.P.P.C
thank you very much i am glad you enjoyed it and i hope it the gun shot amazing in the wind and 55 yards speaks for itself thanks for watching keep safe all the best P.P.P.C
Total professional! Excellent review, always a pleasure to watch your videos. I have the mk2 177, after using a friends m3, I wouldn’t say it was much better, although speaking to some of the FAC guys at my club they do say it’s better for FAC. But from a sub12 perspective I don’t think it’s worth the extra hand out.
Thank you very much I am glad you enjoyed it and yes mk 1 2& 3 are all the same for accuracy in sub 12 its down to what you prefer I have the mk1 and love it keep safe all the best P.P.P.C
From the vids I have watched the big seller for the Mk3 seems to be the ability to adjust the power and tune for slugs and pellets In a sub 12, I think I would just stick with the JSB heavy on max power For the FAC versions, it would be nice to have one rifle setup useful for both indoor ratting and rabbits in the field In terms of accuracy, I have an unregulated FAC Airarms 510 and it shoots better than I can I think I would rather spend my money on a thermal spotter Love your channel
yes its each to there own there are so many rifles out there just like cars they will all get us to the same place some mite look better some mite be a little more cosy but never the less we will get there the s510 is a awesome bit of kit very accurate as well as being whisper quiet i have reviewed one and love them i also shoot for the AA team in field target there guns are very reliable and accurate cant knock AA thank you very much for watching keep safe all the best P.P.P.C
You can bye the new mk3 cocking levers I’ve just fitted it to my mk2 definitely worth doing as far purchasing a mk 3 defo in FAC but not sub 12 great shooting and video 👍
i also have seen good things about the REDWOLF there is a lot of talk and hype about them i even seen very small groups at 100 yards how are you finding it mate thank you very much for watching keep safe all the best P.P.P.C
That's a nice magazine. The ones that come with the M3 are SHIT and move around too much. So much to the point where the plunger will not load another round if you accidently bump it. I've got to contact FX USA and see what they recommend about this magazine issue. I bought an M3 2 weeks ago and it's nice however there are 2 problems I've found so far. 1.) Magazine has piss poor tolerances. 2.) the valve adjuster was not thought out correctly for the 500mm barrels because you can not loosen it far enough out like you can on the 600, 700 or 800 mm barrels because it bottoms out on the barrel shroud. Other than those 2 things it's really good. I bought the 500mm compact m3 .25 cal with a 580cc 300bar bottle and put a donnyfl koi on it. I get a ton of shots and it's a laser, 1 ragged hole, out to 75 yards which is as far as I've gotten to shoot it so far. The one thing I've noticed with 300 bar guns now though. Filling them with a 4500 PSI 90 tank is damn near useless. I get 1 complete fill. So I find it more useful to just air it up with my Yong Heng every time. Which brings to to believe that I might want to purchase another 580cc 300bar buddy bottle for it for the field. oh yea and one other thing. the extend foster quick connect fitting that came with the gun leaks. I purchased a extended treaded type from UTAH Air Guns. I could only fill the gun up to 250 bar because of the leaking quick disconnect at first.
Nice.test their in those windy conditions, was that a sheep in the back background 5.45 into the video just before you started shooting the spinner..gotta love those fx impacts..
i do love my mk1 very accurate and a perfect hunting tool the m3 was very nice in the wind on the range this would be a lovely gun to hand out some eviction notices lol thanks for watching keep safe all the best P.P.P.C
@@pontypoolpestcontrol I should have added/mentioned that I was referring to FAC versions that take a lot more pressure abuse than sub 12 guns. That makes a difference as far as durability since they don't run at the same pressures as FAC guns. Your MK I has done you well and will continue to should you deice to stay with it. :-)
Fx Impact 🤔 good shot count 👍 judging by reviews seems accurate 👍 expensive 🤔 Well it’s a fair chunk of change 🤔. That said a good rifle should last for years so worth the outlay 🤔 Reliable 🤔 I have heard a lot of horror stories regarding Fx, low power, terrible grouping, poor service from Fx. 🍋Don’t want to by a Lemon ,that needs to keep going to a gunsmith , Shot a HW Kt. for5yrs fantastic ,if I missed i new it was my fault not the gun, only trouble was to low a shot count for hunting. Tried two BSA R10se found them inconsistent need additional work to make them work properly. Currently shooting Daystate Huntsman Hr (for the last two years) good accuracy better shot count and very good looking. Down side , it’s a long rifle and can be awkward in a hide which is the( bulk of my shooting.) A higher shot count would be a advantage when hunting some times. I’ve been looking to try another hunting rifle, Fx , AGT , Daystate up to £2,000 what would be your choice. No rush for your reply as I am sure your a busy man👍 Have a think of your top 3 👍 I would appreciate your thoughts. Thanks
LOL skip all the shit talk and how many nutts and bolts it as let see what it can do no sales pitches here thank you very much for watching keep safe all the best P.P.P.C
Do all sub 12 M3s have a smaller plenum? I’m not positive at the moment, memory isn’t great , but I thought they had the 720 plenum. Maybe sub 12 doesn’t need a big plenum.🤷♂️ Nice shooting gun for sure.
i think all sub 12s have small plenums mate well the ones i have seen have anyway unless they have added them on thank you very much for watching keep safe all the best P.P.P.C
Nice unbiased review and some canny shooting. I picked this up in my local gun shop and was surprised how light it was. I quite fancy the Brocock Ranger XR as it folds down to nothing and will fit in my rucksack making it ideal for carrying about and not having to lug a gun bag about. Like the gunrest which model is it? Happy hunting bud.....
Thank you for your opinion but remember I am not trying to sell you this gun I am only showing you what it can do thanks for watching all the best P.P.P.C
It is state if the art.Reviewers around the globe have recognized it as the easiest PCP to tune over the greatest range of variables ie pellet/ slug selection, distance, and velocity
LOL i love my mk1 the m3 was really nice i did test a brocock few weeks back i think it mite of been a sniper it was whisper quiet and pellet on pellet at 35 yards very nice gun to shoot thank you very much for watching keep safe all the best P.P.P.C
Nice,im thinking about getting rid of the HFT500 and getting myself a FX . Is that whistle coming from the silencer or the pellet as it hits that spinner ? . Sounds 😎🔫
FX offer terrible service and low quality products! Here's a real response from FX Support after I purchased a faulty "Power Block" version of the Impact and the dealer refused to help: "The support will be closed for summer holidays 16:th of July to 15:th of August" This is 100% true!!!!
im not saying the customer service is any good but the fx impacts are the best sub 12 rifles i have ever shot at long range 60 70 80 yards i really hope you get the issue sorted mate thank you very much for watching keep safe all the best P.P.P.C
cracking little gun in sub 12 SAM but as we no they do have a price tag i did the video to show everyone the truth of what it can do without a sales pitch or video editing to make the groups look good everyone is free to take what they want from the video this is a no bull shit review thank you very much for watching keep safe all the best P.P.P.C
i did say in the video STEVE but the scope is the MTC 12 - 50 swat range thank you very much for watching and taking your time to comment keep safe all the best P.P.P.C
i purchased a .22 sub 12 Mk3. i had to send it back twice. the barrell was too tight and 'bent' clipping the moderator, air leaking excessively. after receiving it back it seems ok. My question to you is this: - i know you were testing 'accuracy' but how can you take any credit for the groups, when the rifle is in a rest? - you are essentially just cocking, lining up and firing. no effort from yourself with regard to position/hold/breathing etc.
Actually, alot of us do want real world non-bs reviews on different guns - it's alot of money to potentially spend on a gun that may not be as good as the hype *cough*BSA collectors edition*cough* You're free to press stop and choose another video at any time ;-)

Bloody awesome . But 99% of the time it's the shooter not the weapon. A compliment indeed my friend.
From the vids I have watched the big seller for the Mk3 seems to be the ability to adjust the power and tune for slugs and pellets

Great shooting once again what can I say apart from Ill look forward to seeing the next video.

I have an Impact 2 PP in .25 and was thinking of getting the M3, but I went for a Daystate Redwolf HP Safari instead

That's a nice magazine. The ones that come with the M3 are SHIT and move around too much. So much to the point where the plunger will not load another round if you accidently bump it. I've got to contact FX USA and see what they recommend about this magazine issue. I bought an M3 2 weeks ago and it's nice however there are 2 problems I've found so far. 1.)

I would go for the M3 because of the extra adjustability ! For example from 32 fpe down to 12 for competitions .
Wonderful! Cannot wait for next video.
