Title: FX Crown .25 w/600mm barrel
Post by: Sfttailrdr46 on March 21, 2019, 09:42:16 PM
So I changed my order and instead if 600mm .22 now getting the .25  with 600mm barrel. Arrival 3/28 the official start of my next ridiculous high dollar rifle I figure once I figure out the tune for the .25 set up I can order the .22 barrel kit. My guess is that with heavier pellets both will be easy 100 yard shooters.

Has anyone dialed in their  .25 Crown and what weight and type pellet shoots best ?? What regulator pressure and hammer settings worked best for you

I have the .25 Crown with the 600mm STX liner. With the regulator set @ 130bar and the hammer spring adjusted for max velocity on “5” on the hammer spring dial, I get 930fps with JSB 25.39 Kings and 830fps with JSB 33.95 MKII’s.  Cray-cray accuracy!!  Don’t have any technical measurements on how many turns or millimeters I turned the hammer adjustment screw.  Think it’s best to do chronograph work after each adjustment to find the sweet spot for velocity, harmonics, and efficiency.  Every guns a little different.  Congrats on a great new gun!!

Don, I don't have a y of the specs you seek, but I can tell you 3 of the guys in my group have the.25  FX Crown 600 barrel and it is a CRAZY ACCURATE gun.
100 yards is child's play for that gun.
Chicken eggs at 150 yards are no problem
One of the guys is so "in tune" with his, that ringing a 4" gong at 200 yds is something he does quite regularly. Last week I watched him hit it 5 times in a row.
Beautiful buttery smooth cocking cycle and one of the nicest triggers I have ever experienced.
You are going to LOVE that gun.

I set your reg to 125-130 this morning and shot a nice string over the chronograph averaging 925 on max.

That's great I can always back it down from there for the lighter weight pellets

Wow!  That sounds amazing!  I'm ready to place an order for a Dreamline Classic in .25 with that 600mm barrel!  Just waiting to hear back from Jacob on which pre-order list is shortest, and that's what I'll order!  I have all 3 in my cart, just need to remove the 2 with the longer wait...  LOL!
