Thank you, Chris, for a wonderful review. I cringed when you started reading out our responses. I am an Italian living in America, and sometimes I forget the source of the great videos I watch. Thank you for sharing
Thank you for this video. It is so timely for me as I ordered a 177-500mm in Walnut, yesterday. Can't wait for it to get here.
I had a play with one yesterday. The weight is incredible and the finish of the synthetic stock feels perfect for an all night ratting session. Never been overly attracted to the big name manufacturers but this one is definitely on my radar.
Hi Chris, another fantastic detailed review and looking forward for more on the DRS, I have the .177 also and love it very easy to handle, looking forward to your reviews big thanks Rob.
Brilliant review, thank you.
Brilliant review on the DRS 👍
Thank you, enjoyed that and found it informative.
I had a T12 a few years ago and this reminds me of it. Light, nothing complicated and really accurate. The only fx I own at the minute is a fac panthera but I'm really tempted by this. Great review by the way 👍
great review thanks.
Good review Chris nice neat rifle shoots well 😂👍👍
Great video and I bought one in .22 yesterday,also have a .177 crown mk2 synthetic and they both look awesome together,
Great review Chris I would say a bonus having a pressure gauge on the side.
Thanks Chris! Looking forward to a .22/600 FAC DRS review! The 500mm comes with the small plenum and the 700mm with the large one... it would make sense (performance wise) if the 600 came with a medium sized plenum. Hope that FX would consider that, if not them, then maybe a third party like HuMa or SaberTactical would step up and offer a medium sized plenum. Cheers!
maybe one to add to the collection 😛. Hope you get the FAC 600 soon so we can compare. Also hope FX adds a dust plug on future guns. A plastic plug won't brake the bank 😁
Nice review of the first FX I've ever been tempted to buy. Not too expensive, nice and light, decent shot count for an all-day carry, and really very good looking. Had to laugh about the 80~100m question though, sub-12 at that range and the slightest breeze has your pellet wandering all over the shop.

Amazing rifle. Super light, super accurate, super quiet. Just got one from pickering guns. They also offer a 3D printed moderator that is super light and whisper quiet for only £60. My weihrauch XL was £120 & it's no quieter. (Not noticeably anyway) Mine stacks H&N barracuda 8 pellets. Which is excellent because they're very cheap. Better grouping than AA diablo field pellets & they're like £8 cheaper per tin. (£75 for 10 tins of 500 from Redbeck shooting supplies) Picatinny rail is also a must imo. Immersive optics 14X50 fits it like a glove. The huge field of view is so much better than traditional scopes.

3d printing moderators does make me laugh
FAC sounds good. Might get one just for kicks 😊
Try using H&N field target or AA Diablo pellets I find they work awesome, so much better than the jsb’s
Accuracy and consistency are poor above 180 bar, once it hits 180 then it settles down and accuracy drastically improves.

180 bar is very high for the reg.
Great video, could I ask where you purchased those high contrast targets.

To me this looks very bad..But it is none fac .My question is will fac do better?So i dont rant your clip because it is very nice .But i ask will none fac do better at 50?In your opinion?I am from the netherlands and we can shoot at full power..👍 always to your clips
I love mine, but I do find it doesn't really settle down until about 180bar, above that it can be a little inconsistent. I also found the QYS Domed heavies are the best pellet for mine out to 35m. However once I push past 35m then the JSB Exact heavies are better. I tend to use the JSB's when hunting just because of the consistency across different ranges.
You can get a picatinny adapter comes in low and High with a 20moa that is sold separate £60/70 ish i have one fitted to mine gives you a bit more play with scope mounting..
