UNBOXING: FX Wildcat MK3 - 👌New Features | Power Wheel | Mag | Superior Liner 

I am more than happy with the Mark One. The UK.

fx is 💩💩

Hubby and I own about 20 FX guns and they are superb. We own 4 RAW HMX LRTs and we love our FX guns as much as we love our RAWs and we REALLY love our RAWs. In fact as of right now my fav gun is my Impact MKIII PP 700mm .25 slug liner running 34g slugs at 73ftlbs.. 200y 5 shot groups are Minute or better all day long. Number two is my Crown Cont .22... I never thought i would own a gun that's more accurate with pellets at a 100y then my HMX LRT .25 pushing 33.95s 10 shot 100y groups at a indoor range average .85 minute and the Crown Cont is consistently beating it with JSB 25.39 monsters. It's mental how good that Crown Cont is at 50y... Flyers are non existent it loves anything i feed it. My Impact MKII .30 is superb.... I know there is many FX haters... Fact of the matter is FX guns win and they win for a reason. I can take a brand new .25 or .30 Impact out the box spend a day with it doing chrony work getting it super dialed and have a gun that is capable of winning EBR the next day. I don't feel like I can do that with any other pcp. I know what i can do with my Impacts and Crowns and i know with some time on the Chrony i can dial in exactly what i want the gun to do easily (we know the guns extremely well so making them do what we ask is a simple process for hubby and my self) and there is not another gun that we have ever shot that i can say that about. We know our RAWs well and we can make them do as we wish as well but it takes more time. I will say that if i could only have one gun it would be my HMX LRT .25 Poly barreled would be my choice but it would be hard to not just say the hell with it and say PP Impact .30. The only reason i would go with the RAW over the Impact is the RAWs are so insanely reliable and just shoot and shoot. My HMX .22 has upwards of 70k shots threw it and never touched. My Impacts and Crowns will never go that far without rebuilds.... Factor that out and I would take my Impact MKII PP .30 without a second thought what that gun is capable of is insane. I hate people that hate on FX talking shit with their Mrod saying how there .25 Mrod was 1/4th the cost as my Crown or Impact and it will shoot as good or better then them... There's a few local assholes that pulled that and we met up and i showed them the difference between what they thought was good and what is really good.... Two out of the three ordered Dream Lite Bottle guns on the spot and the other bought one of my first gen .25 Impacts that I had no need for. The funnest ones is the Gaunlet guys.... Oh my 300 dollar Gaunlet will shoot .25 inch groups at 75y blah blah blah... There was one at the range 2 weeks ago right after it opened back up. He was talking shit about how his Gaunlet could out shoot out shoot our Crowns that we was banging 1 moa plates at 300y with H&N .218 29g slugs (both out Crown Cont with 700mm slug liners are lovinggggg the .218 29g H&N slugs) We told him come over to our house and let's shoot the next day... He did... Hubby shot a 100y 50 shot group with his HMX LRT .25 with 33.95s that was smaller then his 5 shot group at 50y.... He was humbled and asked could he shoot one of our guns so i let him shoot my new Dream lite bottle .30 that i was doing some dialing in with and he was so amazed at the trigger alone (he had never shot a match grade world class trigger before) that he was hooked and when i had him shooting 10 shot groups at a 100y that was 1 to 1.25 minute he started asking about prices and how much it would cost to set him one up and if he bought one would we tune it for what he wanted it to do etc etc... The FX shit talkers just don't understand what makes us FX fan girls and boys love FX so much until they shoot one or are showed up badly by one and then the humbled voice comes out. FX is doing what no one else has or can right now. Their guns are allowing us to push the limits of what's possible with PCP guns and slugs and put lead with precision on targets are insane (for pcp) distances that just isn't possible with anything else that's mass produced. Sure our highly custom .257 and .308s that are shooting 5 shot groups at 400y that are sub minute are out preforming our FX guns but they are highly custom bespoke guns that cost multiple times what any of our FX guns cost and took a long time to design and build (we are building a .338 that is taking heavy inspiration from tofazfou .338 airpua build and already have 7k in the gun and 8 months and it's still not complete but will be a gun capable of reaching out to 800 to 900y or better and being sub minute out to hopefully in the 600y range and hold sub 2 minute out to 800y our so). Today no one can touch FX on what they are doing and what their guns are capable of with mass produced guns. FX owns the game of mass produced extreme precision pcp guns that are capable or winning at the highest level and offering totally unique products that allow their guns to mould to the users needs IE barrel lengths, pellet liners, slug liners etc etc. I can by 3 barrels and have one gun cover three different needs, 380mm barrel that still allows you to reach out and touch something for pesting and such when you don't want to deal with a 700mm barrel. Then a 700mm slug liner that will allow you to really reach out and put lead with high on target energy levels and then a 500 or 700mm pellet liner that allows me to cover close to long shots with pellets that scrub energy quickly so i dont have to worry as much about retained energy after a miss or pass thru and the projectile carrying on the way the slugs will. The caliber changing is nice to even tho kits are costly it's still much cheaper then buying another high end gun (we don't do the cal swapping thing because when the guns setup how we want it setup we don't want to make changes so we just buy another gun BUT we do love that 109 dollars buys us another barrel that will fit the need we are wanting.) My Dream lite bottle (i own 2 and hubby owns two I have one .22 and one .25 and he has one .25 and one .30) in .25 i use 600mm slug liner and 600mm pellet liner and swap them out a lot. We love to take crows with them and have two fields that we shoot. The shorter field that presents shots in the 70 to 110y range i use pellets JSB 33.95s in the pellet liner and for the larger field that presents shots on the fence row between 160 and 275y I throw the slug liner in it and pushing 31g slugs at 910fps and that gun and slug combo is a minute capable 200y setup. Taking crows early in the morning before wind gets up at 230 to 270y equals no problems... At 250y my hit ratio would be about 9 out of 10 shots on crows and when doves land on the fence row at 230 to 250y my kill ratio on doves at that range would be about 6 out of 10... At 200y they don't stand a chance if the wind is calm.

Lacy Desires holy shit that’s how you handle nay sayers sure hope FX sees your reply if FX isn’t backing you in anyway they should be. Hope you have an awesome week cheers

Well said 👏

tell me friend, you have a lot of work. you didn't like my idea

a little polish at the barrel inside and there you are

Do they last that long ? Mine went back 4 times in 3 months 😂

@@andrewclaxton6446 Same here m8, I ended up getting an S510R, far better tool in sub 12.

@@markgilbert7012 my impact is still going strong... although its only a couple months old. If nothing else, it'll teach me the in and outs of an airgun if it breaks!

@@cmac1100 i really really wanted mine to be as good as all these reviewers say they are, but it was f#cking appalling. Constant leaks, cocking lever broke twice and shooting a 3 inch spread at 30 yards. ended up getting a full refund , even gave my fx chrono away afterwards.

Just my thought really. Lol

Edit: I'll bought impact mk2 700,mm sniper in 22,

@ALAN BRAY me too. My wildcat has been faultless. So much so,that I may well buy a mk3 in a different calibre to my current wildcat.

Grumpy - I couldn’t agree more - why endless faff around with it then decide you need the new model which comes out 3 weeks later. I’m also doubtful about a bigger, more complicated 18 shot mag being an improvement. A money making exercise in selling us something we didn’t need. At the end of a hunting session you should be emptying the magazine because in UK law if it’s not and you are stopped by the police the gun will be considered “loaded” even if the mag is not actually in the gun.

@@grahamedwards9920 that’s actually wrong I can carry loaded fire arm magazines it’s not loaded if it’s not in the gun is it

@@dave_724 I’m not sure we talking about the same thing. I’ve been told on several occasions over the years that if you have the rifle + load magazine in your possession then even if the magazine is not in the rifle the rifle is regarded by in law as being a loaded weapon in a public place. It is generally only relevant in circumstances where you are transporting a firearm. The last example of this was when I shot an ordinary non- FAC air rifle on a gun shops indoor range. As they packed up the gun for me to take home they removed the remaining pellets from the magazine because they believed to have both the air rifle and the loaded magazine in my possession when travelling through a public space ( travelling by train in this instance ) would amount “legally” to having a loaded weapon in a public place. It was mentioned again that the loaded magazine didn’t have to be in the rifle. I have never understood the reasoning behind it and I find it irritating AND I would love to discover that the advice is factually wrong. Please tell me what your authority is - is it enshrined in statute or some recently decided case ? I always unload the magazine because I believe the law requires me to.

Why do you need to? Be satisfied with what you have.

Glad I waited to catch this one, at least it had barrel kits. That was a big thing right there, although still a few hundred dollars. I can buy just one.22 or any caliber, an can then just pick up a .177 or .25 caliber barrel kit to change it on the same gun. I'm sure they will have another new improved one though, a year from now that I'll be pissed about lol.

If you look at the inside of the case you can see the pointy foam, ounce the case is closed NOTHING can move AROUND in it anymore ok. it's clear that you have no clue what you are stalking about. 😂🤣😂🤪😀👍 HAVE A NICE DAY 😁

The picatinny is an optional extra I'm having mine delivered on Monday and I asked what the scope rail was and it's 11mm dovetail don't know why they don't just put a picatinny rail on probably to get a bit more money off you to upgrade

I have the XL mag on the Impact and it doesn't bother me as a lefty, at all.

Impact has up to 580cc air cilinder, probably a bigger plenum, ambidextral side lever (aftermarket), and looks are in the eye of the beholder. Me personally loves the Impact tactical look. Impact can be fitted with a 9mm barrelkit too. So there are differences. :-)

@@Harolddespui im in complete agreement with you, i guess if he had the extra few hundred quid extra! then i bet it would be a different comment..

Huh? 😂 He’ll have put it on there so that his personal info isn’t there for all to see on RU-vid

Yes and no, all you have to do is go to your local gun shop and ask them to order one in for you if they don't already have one there for you to buy.

No, it adjusts the hammer spring.

@@bcml8 Thanks, couldn't find an answer easily by searching.

@@kevinJmadsen Watch again at 14:16, Giles explains exactly this. Cheers. Russ

ill got mony back for priest2 because i had just problems with this gun. now i'am waiting for fx wildcat mk2

SHOOTER3258 ty I’ll stick to fx dreamtac compact

No shops overthere that import the latest stuff? That's odd.

@@Harolddespui they are available but not in abundance, the ones that are available are only in .177 caliber as per new law since .22 are regarded as firearms from now on . Plus to import one an individual has to be registered with the national rifle association or a club associated with it, oh yeah that as well only in .177 , 15 ft pound energy . The new pcps are double to triple the cost due to heavy taxation , say for example fx impact is 2000 dollars in usa over here in India it cost us 3500 dollars . So I guess old is gold for now 😬.

Still waiting on full review on the full power Sniper version. Whats initial thoughts,opinion,seen one RU-vid review who had some out of the box QC issues,easy fixes but should never been shipped like that.

Rowan Engineering do a single shot loader 👍

Still nothing to touch a decent Rapid 7 for ease of use and reliability, that’s why 2nd hand price are still strong.

I don't see how even a .22 cal would work on only 12 fpe.
