AIR GUN HUNTING WITH FX MAVERICK I SNIPER AIR GUN HUNT I PIGEON PEST CONTROL

In this episode i do air gun hunting with my Fx Maverick Sniper and Compact version. This air gun hunt is a pigeon pest control job i did for a farmer in South Africa. Air gun hunting is a big passion of mine and the Fx Maverick from Fx Airguns is the perfect air gun for the job. The sniper version of this air gun is setup to shoot high powered air gun slugs and the my compact version is set to shoot pellets. Slug shooting is perfect for pigeon pest control and a good hunting experience for beginner shooters. Join me on this high action adventure where i do air gun hunting and give you some mind blowing slow motion footage that you can enjoy and i hope that i can educate you as well with my expertise in the air gun hunting world.
My 2 Air gun Setups is:
Fx Maverick 22 caliber Sniper/Fx Maverick 22 caliber Compact
700mm barrel/500mm

    Hi Gerhard I have another question!! whats the reason for such a difference in the reg pressure between the front and back regs is it so the plenum fills quicker as I always thought between 25 bar and 40 bar was ideal on the maverick cheers mate sorry to bother you atb.

    I keep the difference big to accommodate two different tune tunes between slug and pellet. You dont want to dump air and reset the front reg all the time.

For example, I adjust it today, I leave it adjusted tomorrow when I shoot, it has already changed the point of impact and I have to adjust it again, it's not just me who has this problem but everyone here in Brazil has this difficulty, can you help me with this problem?

    Hello my friend... I dont know who i should ask, so now you get the question. I have an FX Impact X Mk2 .22 where i shoot the FX Hybrid Slugs, with about 1010fps. But... it is very hard to get the FX slugs in Denmark... but... in Denmark Javelin 23gr .22 is available. Soo... i think i will have to change from FX slugs to the Javelin slugs 23grain. The question is, what will the fps be with these Javelin 23grain with my setup right now ? And which speed should i aim after ?

  • @air-huntergerhard4ever

    @air-huntergerhard4ever

    With that speed currently on the 22s i guess 980-990s with the 217. I will bring the speed down to 950fps mark on the 23gn Javelins.

    That's interesting. You have a very high difference between the 1st and 2nd regulator, whereas FX recommends it to be in the 25 to 50 bars range. Also, you've tuned the pressure up, yet used the hammer adjuster wheel to give it less power. Do you think those things help with accuracy? Also, some people claim there might actually be less accuracy with the longer barrel due to it being floppy. Do you notice better accuracy with the longer barrel?

    Another excellent video Gerhard. Keep them coming my friend. Quick tuning question for you, if I may… What is your suggestion for best accuracy at 100-150m if I am shooting a 500mm Impact MK2 in 177 (no power limit) for the New JSB 13.43 gr KO slugs? I am thinking around 925-950FPS but high reg pressure and low HS or low reg pressure and high HS. Have not done any tests yet. Press on my friend.

    Bit different with the 177 setups. I will go high reg presure for a short quick burst of air keeping the air behind the slug to a minimum. Speeds i will stay at the low end of the 900s.

    You can get biltong in the US from amazon. Jerky has a bunch of sugar in it that biltong does not. Modern jerky is smoked at low heat, whereas biltong is salted, spiced and air dried in a cool, dark, dry place. So, technically raw. Eating biltong is the secret to the Boers' long range shooting ability.
