custom FX by Ernest ? wow lucky man.........iam a proud owner of,177( only cal allowed in our country) mk1 impact, full modified with power plenum, slug power kid, dual reg, dual port etc, i was shooting Jsb 10,34 gr with ST barrel from day 1 and pest control and hunting around 120-150 meters,very happy with great results , always first place in local benchrest turnaments, for 3 years i beg fx factory for STX barrel 50cm and got it last week (finally), as a ,177 owner i have complains, we are forgotten , no slug liners, nothing above 50 cm barrels, hard to find slugs or mods for ,177 cal. i love that gun and i paid over 4 k so far to keep it updated.
Hey Rick !! That is one gorgeous rifle !! Butter cocking lever. I LOVE .177's and I wish you and Steve would do more of them. Seems like it's all about .22's and now .25's. Bigger is getting more popular, but I like .177. That magazine is HUGE !!!
Rick does that Caldwell rest keep the gun in there solid like a vise, because thats the kind of rest I want to buy something that will keep the gun locked in to take away shooter error.
I like this .177 so much that I talked to FX about getting one. Sadly I was told that there are no orders for the.177 since March of last year. I like the 600mm barrel and am still waiting for you to tire of it. lol From what I see it is not even offered. You are a lucky man to have Ernest building you one.
Enjoyed the video as always and the enthusiasm and I also love 17cal it's initially what called me to airguns and sometimes you forget that with the power hungry community atmosphere at the moment everyone looking to slugs and I have to put myself in the category. I've tried to compromise by trying to stay with in the 22 cal range and if so after that then I think we start to blur the lines in cost and range per dollar as 30 and above I think ammunition costs start to climb into the powder category. Oh well still a avid airgun enthusiast and learn something every day or video I watch.
hey Rick , how are you ? greetings from England that fx is sure a work of art , love it . ive got 2 fxs a crown and wildcat 3 . must think about this one lol . great review RICK , thank you for your work .... cheers Simon
Hey Buddy !! Which slugs are using for .177 what’s your set up for that ? I’m got .177 too and I’ll testing some slugs in 13gr to see how they will perform. Fingers crossed 🤞🏻.
TUNE! here is a tune, 20g slugs at 1000fps (44.5 ftlbf ) max setting (OR thereabouts) down to 10.71g at ?fps ) ? ftlbf ) on min setting. That is what I am talking about , wait no, strike "talking about" , That is what I am wanting. 2021 the year of the .177 slug. nice gun Rick/Ernest, good luck
Closest gun I’ve found to do this, which I just got up and running yesterday, is the Air Arms s500/s510. Initial rough chrono results in .177 for each of its five settings: 4fpe, 10-12fpe, 15-18fpe, 21-23fpe, 22-27fpe. It’s not a 35+fpe monster, but that range in REPEATABLE fpe at the click of a knob is amazing. Goal is to be able to do everything from plinking at 25 yards with HN FTT Green 5.7gr @ 4fpe, all the way up to 15gr slugs at 27fpe.
hi rick can i ask you a question about the impact ? i want to buy an impact too and the question is how much shots can make the impact with 7,5 joule in 4,5mm ?
Sir can you please test with jsb 16.20 grain ... Daystate gun can shoot really good, some of my friend and my self also have mkii 177 impact and no 1 can get a good result with 16.20 after 40m plus under 40 its so perfect but 50,60+ it funny...

4k for shooting a pellet
Ernest knocked that out of the universe. Ernest is a mad scientist. Trying to decide which fx to buy but the Maverick looks like the winner for me.
Yep it’s a beautiful gun. You don’t hear or see much of the 177 calls anymore. They are still good for small creatures.
Rick im glad your doing better buddy, I really am. Your the man brother, stay safe and take care.
Amazing tuning n you bring out the technical aspects of shooting indoors the barn and stuff it's good for chaps 1st time shooting
Don't know how I missed it. This is my rifle.
Thanks brother. 🎯❤💯

Great video Rick! Thanks for promoting an American based scope company like Athlon. Now days it is important more than ever to help any American jobs!
That is so awesome I just ordered the 177 cal for my impact mk2 I could only fine the 500mm anyway thanks for sharing bsafe whoa 😀 be safe 😊
I LOVE the location of the huge magazine. It has no affect on the scope mount rings height.
That is so awesome man whoa 177 I just ordered the 177 in 500mm anyway great shooting 👍 thanks for sharing bsafe buddy
You’re one lucky man. A custom FX by Ernest can’t get any better than that.
I'm assuming Ernest is either at FX or AoA ?
@@michaelb.42112 FX I believe

Is Ernest still doing custom tuning for the public?
Nice 😎 one Rick

...and that’s the exact build I need for .177. Thanks for making the video🍍🍍👏🏼👏🏼🤙🏽👏🏼👏🏼
That's the same speed I run my .177 at, is around 920's with the 10.34 Hades! Thanks for the video!
hey Rick , how are you ? greetings from England
that fx is sure a work of art , love it . ive got 2 fxs a crown and wildcat 3 . must think about this one lol . great review RICK , thank you for your work .... cheers Simon
Looking good, like the bronze!
Scary breaking SOUND !
How many shots on the big tank?
Nice gun Rick! The cold sure does impact PCPs, not like we are going to wait until summer to shoot though :)
Beautiful fx, really beautiful
Great video Rick!
Beautiful, and where can you buy such a charging handle ??
Ernest Rowe sells them
@@shooter1721 Rick you have me falling in love with the FX line, especially the M3 and the Panthera WUUUUU! This .177 is DROP DEAD GORGIOUS 😍😍😍😍
how many shots in one cylinder ?
Check out the .177 slugs they are amazing.
Hey Buddy !!
Which slugs are using for .177 what’s your set up for that ?
I’m got .177 too and I’ll testing some slugs in 13gr to see how they will perform.
Fingers crossed 🤞🏻.
@@DyR10 my .177 is just an Air Venturi Avenger I use the H&N rabbit magnum they are hybrids,kinda like the FX hybrids. Great little budget setup.
I have a Vector Veyron 3x9x44 on top I have a UTG bug buster for it also.
Just type .177 slugs into your search engine there are a few companies that have the .177 slugs out now.
You were shooting the Bronze, But it's FX for the Gold, all day,,,
Nice rig and vid. Would love to see some slugs through it!
I 2nd that...bigtime
Ive never shot a pcp how do i know the hammer spring is matched up with the power of the gun when i go to adjust it?
TUNE! here is a tune,
20g slugs at 1000fps (44.5 ftlbf ) max setting (OR thereabouts)
down to 10.71g at ?fps ) ? ftlbf ) on min setting.
That is what I am talking about , wait no, strike "talking about" , That is what I am wanting.

Also REALLY looking forward to some lead free slugs. They should hopefully give great BC while keeping the weight down
@@mspiredm3 "goal is to be able" 100% agreed but 20g at 44fpe would put .22 and .25 under the WHY? spotlight
@@mspiredm3 Probably less expansion with Alloys, but they are coming, so may as well learn to make good use of them.
@@mspiredm3 PS , Good luck.
hi rick can i ask you a question about the impact ? i want to buy an impact too and the question is how much shots can make the impact with 7,5 joule in 4,5mm ?
Hi! Where can to order 600mm (177 cal.)barrel? Thanks!
I would need more power in .177 !... shoot 15 /16 grn @ 920fps. Can/will Ernest do that ? 🤔
This gun was set at 105 on the reg shooting a 10.34 at 926 there is more power there if needed
.177 ammo availability and ammo choices (as in a LOT!) are making the .177 a very viable option again these days!
Hay Rick nice video. What is the tune on this gun as far as regulator pressures?
I’d like to no aswell
Tell me how much this one airgun.
Rick i live in Pennsylvania buddy, where exactly are you in P.a.
Hey buddy that don't answer my question a thumbs up
Lancaster
@@shooter1721 Rick I'm not all that far from Lancaster I'm in Levittown Pennsylvania

Loved your video's sir rick1721
Ótimo vídeo, parabéns 👏
Shot count at full power?

Hi which one is more accuracy fx maverick or fx impact?
They use the same barrel but I like the dual regs on the Maverick
@@shooter1721
My mean is for shooting accuracy which one is more accuracy for target?
Beautiful gun
Great video brother 👌👌👌👌
