Got this in the mail today, a preowned FX T12 FT (field target)! Got what I think was a good deal, came scoped. The only issue is that one of the fill probes o rings is cracked...made a call and voila, o rings are in the mail

. The trigger is fantastic breaking at about 1lb...power is/was a bit anemic shooting 15.89’s @ 833fps which is no biggie as once the stock is off there is a hammer adjustment screw right below the bolt...just need to refill to check FPS....all in all it seems as though the previous owner hardly shot it as there are no dings or wear marks anywhere. Weight is 6.9lbs unscoped. The shots I took were very accurate just can’t wait to have a full air reservoir! LOL...Happy new care taker here.

TJ, I am targeting hogs...Ghogs that is! LOL! I want numbers similar to my Daystate Regal which is 900fps with the 15.89’s. I hear the Smooth Twist barrels need speed...we’ll see

. I do want it closer to being a 30ft/lb hunter, not exactly but, close. I will take shots close to 80yds so I don’t want too much drop in POI.

POI, thank you! I picked up a pack of #247 o’rings from Home Depot this morning, silicone greased them and, they work! LOL! YES! After a few tweaks of the hammer spring she is shooting right about 900 FPS with 15.89’s, not nearly as efficient with air as my Regal but, she will be used mainly for hunting.

Yep, Those fast twist FX bores LOVE those JSB Jumbos. Enjoy and knock a hog in the noodle for me.

And thx for the H.D. o-ring size. Every time someone here sends me to what I need I try to toss a few bucks into the donation pool to keep it going here. I havn't ordered any by mail yet, they are just starting to pop/hiss/crackle a little so GTA is gonna get the shipping I save when I stop at H.D.

POI, that is very kind of you to do that ...the world needs more people like you, then, it would be a better world indeed.

Wayne, thank you! I was looking at the Diana/Morod Dominator when I ran across this one scoped for less money so it won.

Thank you to our advertisers!
