HI guys in this one we take a look at the new FX rifle the FX Panthera, unfortunately this particular rifle is rubbish accuracy wise, although we do find the problem in the video, the carbon fiber stiffener fitted from the factory is slightly too long and it stops the jam nut from capturing the liner correctly.

Thanks for the video. My Panthera was one of the first off the production line, and it was a nightmare. After FX had it back for 4-weeks - she arrived home - and is now by far the most accurate airgun I own. Its sublime. Shame it took a factory return to get it shooting as it should of from the factory!

I just ordered mine and can't be happier. I ordered the Dynamic .25 with the big 480 bottle and 600mm barrel. Now I do wish I would have ordered it in the compact as I have an FX Maverick .30 completely decked out. Stiffer spring, tungsten hammer, carbon fiber stiffing rod, Huma air larger transfer port for slugs, huma air high flow pellet probe .30, and all internal parts have been polished for super low standard deviations getting 2 and 3s on a 13 mag string. Now planning on getting the new Dynamic hot and a lot shorter for just a carry in the woods lite gun. Enjoy your FX rifle my friend, I know I love both mine!!

Thank you for showing us what you discovered with the overly long carbon fiber sleeve. I will now file that info away in the back of my mind ready to recall if I have a similar problem. A new Panthera is on my list of priorities. I'm looking forward to your next video to see if it solved your accuracy issues. Thanks again.

Well done for the balanced video - and for finding what is hopefully a straight forward remedy to the accuracy issues.....I still think a normal barrel is the way to go though 🙂 I am surprised they kept the trigger the same as the Impact/Crown as whilst a good trigger, its not exactly target spec. Looking forward to the series 🙂 keep up the good work.

You might want to check the liner as wel. Place a pellet in the breech of the liner and push it through the liner. I did that with all my liners and found that the breech is tight, like a choke,in almost all of them. Made a mini hone to remove it and most of them improved a lot. Sometimes the liner has more issues,not uncommon, and cannot be saved. In that case an A-A or CZ200 barrel is very good option.

You would have thought they would have tested the rifle for accuracy, before it left the factory. Especially a high end rifle like an FX. I have a little HW110, that was drilling pellet on pellet at 35 yards. It is probably quarter the cost. Guess who’s feeling smug LOL? 😊 I am pretty certain, once it is fixed, it will be a brilliant rifle. Then guess who will feel envious? 😂

I discovered the exact same mistake with the 700mm Panthera .. those carbon fiber sleeves are not only too long, but also too loose! Since you were able to remove the liner from within the carbon sleeve so easily, then that means the gap between them will result in liner play. FX has always had an issue with quality control since day one!

Sorry to hear of you problems with the Panthera, I'll be watching with interest to see what you discover and how you fix them. Have to say that I'm surprised. I have over a dozen PCP's (Air Arms, FX, Walther, Weihrauch) and the four FX ones (Royale 500, Crown MK2, Impact MK2 and Panthera) have all been well made and excellent performers - right out of the box. Many PCP accuracy issues can be traced back to a poor tune. I'd be curious how you would go about tuning your Panthera. Think a lot of people would benefit from a video like that. Cheers!

Same old story. I’ve had 2 Impacts from new and neither were fit to use out of the box. The MK 2 liner had been tightened by a gorilla in the factory and bent almost ‘S’ shaped and the M3 pic rail was bolted on at an angle and the liner bore was disgusting. Both rifles had bad reg creep. I replaced some o rings in the M3 that looked 20 years old but were only 2. Like I’ve said before FX would be far better selling piles of parts and let the customer put them together. I got them both to perform adequately but as far as l’m concerned FX are mass produced garbage. Strong words but my opinion I’m afraid.

They aren't the only company that produce expensive weapons that are poorly assembled. Some are of poor design and unreliable, others temperamental and drive you mad throughout ownership, impossible to relax while shooting. Service and backup with some companies is maddening too. Manufacturers and importers blame each other but despite changes to latter the manufacturing problems persist. The benefit of this channel is that you can see how they can be fixed.

Typical for FX. Quality control is not as important as production speed. If you get a bad product and complain to FX in private you're at the back of the line to fix their mistake. If you draw attention to their mistake on a busy forum you go straight to the front of the line for repairs ahead of all the poor saps that tried to play the gentleman.

Hi is there anyone could tell me is there a o.ring in the breech end of the barrel of a HW 100. Seemed to have lost a bit of power after cleaning the barrel and getting a piece of cloth stuck in breach end. And had to get snip nosed plyers to pull it out

There are two orings. One in the end face of the barrel itself, and another inside the loading port. I'd image it'll be that one that's damaged. It's a real pain in the arse to change though,. I had to pry mine out with a dentist's hook tool.

i dont am a fan of the liner system ,why? changing the liner you are back in the search from the best setting and scope adjusments . and the weak barrel is always directing different . wind sun and transport ,while a steel bull barrel is no problem , and a heavy barrel in a gun is the best pointer

The rail on mine is garbage. The rail digs into the barrel shroud enough to deeply gouge it, and that was just in shipping before mounting a bipod. Otherwise I like my U.S. spec .22.

Glad you didn't get it from range and country, you would have just invalidated your warranty as you would even if you had just replaced a seal. Then if you had needed further help they would have told you TOUGH. Sort it out yourself. Incredibly dodgy people to do business with.
