FX IMPACT 101- EPISODE 1 I TECHNICAL GUIDANCE ON FX IMPACT FOR AIR GUN HUNTING AND PRS

In this episode i am doing a Fx Impact air gun discussion on my favorite air gun for precision shooting and air gun hunting. I discuss my air gun setup on question that most new air gun competitive shooters and air gun hunting shooters ask. In this video i share technical information on the Fx Impact M3 air gun for competitive shooting and air gun hunting. Shooters who owns a Fx Impact for the first time and need information will find this episode very help full. This video is a discussion of the Fx Impact and certain features that it has and also trouble shooting guide for beginners. The Fx Impact air gun is famous for shooting the heavy air gun hunting slugs and air gun hunting pellets. I am air gun hunting sportsman and i also do competitive air gun shooting for a career. My air gun hunting setups is the most important for me for delivering raw power on accuracy with heavy air gun hunting slugs. I love competitive precision shooting and air gun hunting and it is part of my lifestyle. I love to help air gun hunters and competitive air gun shooters and this is why i try to answer and guide as many people as what i can in this episode. The Fx Impact is such a icon in the air gun hunting and competitive shooting platforms. The Fx Impact is by far the king of all air gun hunting airguns and my favorite air gun of all time for precision shooting. I love to do air gun precision shooting with my Fx Impact across the world and it is part of my career. As a professional marksman i love to teach other air gun hunting shooters the best i can when it comes to shooting skill and good hunting ethics. I want to set a good example to other air gun hunting and competitive shooters out there. In this latest episode on the Fx Impact you can find good data to use as a air gun hunting shooter and air gun competitive shooter as well. I work close with air gun manufacturer Fx Airguns on developing the Fx Impact and i work with HN Sports that has been developing fire arm bullets and air gun hunting ammo for over a 100 years now. My goal is to advance the sport of air gun hunting and competitive shooting and making this passion a reality for most out there that love air guns as much as what i do. I co-designed the H&N heavy slug air gun hunting slug range with HN Sports that is specifically designed to give you maximum accuracy and expansion in air gun hunting slug and to work with the Fx Impact. The T-slot design in the new developed hollow point is a first of its kind and unique for air gun hunting making sure it delivers a deadly punch with high end air gun accuracy from the Fx Impact. These air gun hunting slugs work best in the Fx Impact range and also in other leading air gun developing air guns out there. As a hunter i believe that is important to always help out those in need like farmers that struggle with big pest bird problems on farms. The air gun discussion of the Fx Impact in this video was done safely and in a controlled environment. Precision Air gun like the Fx Impact is perfect for competitive shooting and air gun hunting. It saves a lot on cost on ammo and makes air gun hunting and competitive air gun shooting fun. I love videography and i love content creating for others. I combined this with my air gun hunting and competitive shooting adventures to give the best feeling to viewers watching my videos. If you love air gun shooting as much as what i do then this video is for you!!!

    Hello Gerhard, I heard you say something very important to me: you're a trained and qualified airgun technician. So: how do you become one? Since there is no reliable service directly around where I live, and the good service points have a waiting list of 4 to 6 weeks there seems to be gap worth filling in. I've been shooting airguns for over a decade now and recently became very interested in the technology behind it. I watch about every channel I can get info from (like the FX Masterclass, Matt Dubbers Airgun Ballistics 101, ...) but I would really like to become a qualified technician as well. So, is there somewhere I can get a decent training? Tried googeling for it, but all the hits were for firearms. Can you help out? Thanks in advance, Filip.
