Doesn't matter one way or another as FX barrels are not drilled in the first place. They are made from tubing that is then pressed to form and then pressed by FX to form the riffling. . No drilling. KnifeMaker

I guess the reason why so many of the air rifle competition winners only use FX barrels is because they are so inferior. Mat is a giant compared to you.

Having had the priviledge of spending time in conversation with - and on the range - with several world champions "from down in Africa" I KNOW the skill and knowledge these guys bring to the table - and here is the newsflash - not one ever said that Lothar Walther is crap or only FX is good - and Matt never said that either. He pointed out the technical specifications and their effects in different disciplines, which means pick the appropriate tool for the job - and your budget. And guess what...? When we shoot there are plenty of FX's next to Walthers, next to Prophets and Priests and Avengers and Leviathans.... Nobody talking down to anybody my friend - you need to do a lot of soul-searching as regards your motives for this vid... But don't feel bad - you ever come down to Africa, you can drop into any range and come give us a shooting lesson...we will even buy you a few beers and listen listen attentively to your wisdoms...😉

Per the drill bits, I’m a machinist. Drill bits, even carbide drill bits absolutely flex. The longer they are the greater the chance of it. Applications have to be dialed in perfectly in order for this not to happen. I can easily see this happen in gun drill applications. Per the fx liners, I don’t recall him staying they r perfect. He stated they foul less, are fairly rough when new and polish as u shoot. Impart less damage on the projectile. And are less ammo fuzzy. I’d say that’s pretty true.

Now this is a guy who is also a slug manufacturer and he doesn’t see the reason why he should show how well the groups are. We are dealing with so-called precision airguns from FX but they make a deal when they give you a gun and they pay you that you do not ever shoot groups on paper. The illusion is when you watch these guys in Africa and every shot they take they hit. And I don’t care how accurate your guns with wind you are going to miss all right so how come they never miss

The FX brand speaks for itself and the results and shooters don’t lie jealousy is a bitch ..

The Mauser was developed in the 1870s. STILL the best rifle action!!! What does age of design have to do with quality? Your "technique" disqualifies any thing you say.

Lets see you win EBR in October....get out of the backyard and show us all.

I could not watch much over a minute of your vid because of your bias and the inaccuracies from the very beginning of the video. I know, from personal experience, that barrels can be drilled off center as I have had several. Yes, metal can flex and bend, when being drilled, and the bit will follow the softer part of the material in the barrel. An LW barrel can be defective just the same as any other manufacturer's barrels. Once again I know this from personal experience I got two, my first two, really ugly LW barrels in a row for my SK-19. I still need to send the second barrel installed on my gun back. To be completely honest I also got a defective FX liner once as well. You can say pretty much anything, that KZread will allow, on a KZread video and it surely does not need to be accurate or the truth. It's a terrible thing how so many people pretend they know what is going on then precede to take you down some dark and forbidden path towards the utter destruction of whatever you are werqing on. Some times what is being taught is downright dangerous. I think some of these people just want to be somebody so they do KZread videos hoping to make it happen. Makes me want to puke it does. As far as people advertising their wares we all know that most have a habit of over stating things a bit. In a perfect world what they say may be true to the letter but in the real world things don't always werq out that way.

Would like to see how you polish a barrel. Thanks.

Prof Brian Cox said our ability to store and transfer knowledge is what took us from caveman to spaceman. Any knowledge on this complex subject(PCPs) is valuable to all of us who are interested. I thoroughly enjoy learning all I can about the physics involved. Hooray for youtube videos like yours and others. 2 years ago I did not even know what a PCP was. I have since bought several FX rifles and have shot over 15000 rounds through them. I have also devoured youtube reviews on different air rifles. I have never seen any groups from any gun approaching a quarter MOA (1 MOA equals1,047 inches at 100 yds) at any distance. Especially not 10 shot groups. Not Huben, Daystate, RTI, or any others. Many have had Lothar Walter barrels. I don't claim these groups don't exist just have not seen any from hundreds of videos. The tendencies with groupings seem to be similar for all the rifles in terms of typically not being able to improve on approx 0,75 to 1 MOA including for FX. Most groups are worse. I also notice most have the odd flyer which is why I personally prefer 10 shot plus groups to see how many flyers over a larger shot count. Make no mistake FX also has flyers but I haven't seen it's worse than other rifles. . If you achieve quarter MOA consistently without rifle-induced flyers I cannot wait to find how you achieve it and I'm sure the airgun enthusiasts out there feel the same. As far as the points you have made about the flaws in the FX barrel design and manufacture clearly this is true. FX is aware of these hence the release of carbon tubes to stiffen the liners and the research in adding barrel stiffening sleeves. It makes sense that they will improve accuracy and reduce POI changes from barrel shifting which is one of my personal complaints with these rifles.. My best results with my unmodified rifles are 0,63 MOA with slugs and 0.6 MOA with pellets at 71 yds. The best of hundreds of 10 plus round groups The changing size inside the liners as the projectile moves down the barrel I cannot comment on in terms of both physical or the effect thereof. What I can say to your statement about introducing harmonics is that I think it can only affect the amplitude, not the actual frequency of the harmonic. Depending on various factors it could reduce and increase the amplitude as it disengages and reengages the barrel each time. This is obviously a complex subject and is beyond my knowledge. What attracted me to FX the most is the repeated claim from what appears to be reliable sources (eg, Teds Hoidover) that the barrel does not have to be repeatedly cleaned to maintain accuracy. My own experience is this is true, however, a change in projectile requires about 10 shots before the barrel "settles" with the leading and becomes consistent. As far as to hammer friction I think your claim of inconsistency needs elaboration. Friction per se is not the cause of inconsistency If the friction stays the same each time no inconsistency will be introduced. I cannot comment on whether it does or not but don't think it would be the same every time.. A good polish of the hammer and sleeve will probably reduce inconsistency to negligible amounts. I notice you were measuring a 2-year-old barrel. I believe the Superior barrel was subsequently released and these are more precise, with improved manufacturing equipment being used. I don't know if measurement will improve. At least one of the Huben reviews has shot strings and the speed variable is above 10fps. You claim that FX is a 100 yd barrel and not a 200yd barrel is in my opinion is an incorrect statement unless the rifle has introduced instability into the projectile that only starts beyond 100 meters. Unless affected by wind or some other cause of instability ( eg spin rate) 1 MOA at 100 is 1MOA at all distances once the projectile has left the barrel. If I'm wrong please explain, remember I'm kind of a novice I look forward to your further videos. Show us the consistent quarter MOA groups with no flyers and I will definitely be one of the first to make one happen for myself I believe hammerless is the future and most rifles will be built like that eventually including FX I would like to make the South African video guys aware of your channel. Things should get interesting. Let's hope you guys can bang the knowledge and facts around to the benefit of us all without any personal issues.

Did you check your line or did you push a slug or pellet through it. The best thing you can do for yourself if you wanna shoot really tight groups just get a better barrel fit to your gun and when you do that I guarantee you will message me and tell me how much butter and how much more consistent your groups are. F ask products throw flyers with slugs all the time. That is because of Poor manufacturing process and the fact that the barrel needs a very tight choke. They have to be tight choked to overcome all the deviations that are caused to the slug from the inconsistent barrel diameter. Like me you saw a video showing a really tight tight group . So you bought the gun and now you’re into it and you’re kind of stuck. I would suggest getting yourself a gauntlet or an avenger and using my videos to polish and remove any inconsistencies which are much smaller and deviation matter of fact microscopic compared to an fx. And once you take that entry level gun as they call them so they can sell their expensive stuff and you tune it properly you’re going to see how much better accuracy can be achieved. The fact is their liner is a weak system and they hide it. Anybody who shoots for them on KZread is not allowed to show groups. At over 100 yards one out of four slugs will hit the target sometimes you’ll get lucky and two are 4 Will hit the target. That is simply not acceptable. These guys talk about ethical shooting. How are you going to shoot ethically if you yourself just said that you get tons of flyers. Go get yourself a Walther polygon barrel if you’re shooting slugs no choke barrel and you will be shooting a half inch group at 100 yards.

It is very frustrating because I watched Matt Dobbers videos where he showed a precision group. It was like five shots and may be a 3/8 inch hole. I get the slug liners and it’s entered a half 200 100 yards on my channel. I did get one liner to shoot savanna my way but it was a 30 Cal which is inherently more accurate and it took me eight hours to get that out of that barrel, and I will never do another one. it’s sad at FX has conned people out of their money and given them and in theory or shooting product.

The smooth twist barrels are not rifled they are swaged. Ben Taylor showed me how he developed it before selling the process to FX. The first gun I bought from him was a Theoben countryman in .22 in St Ives.

Barrel quality is paramount. I'm a huge fan of the .22cal CZs (12 groove, 45cm twist), they require the least amount of polishing (bores are close to flawless from the factory). I also agree that there are velocity sweet spots for a given barrel twist / barrel spec and projectile. It's been more apparent for me with smaller slugs (sectional densities and weight), like my gen6 Huben K1 with the 28.5gr Varmint Knockers. Everyone seemed to settle on 1050-1060, but that barrel is most accurate shooting them at 1100 (+/-5FPS). Love the K1, had to do some barrel work and have yet to install a custom mag that I got from Kelly & Dale Riggert's design, but tweaking the factory mag chambers allowed me to shoot sub-MOA with only ~2 sketchy mag chambers. My Taipan "Supervet" builds in .22 are ferocious, and they can push 40+ grain RBTs at just under 130FPE (but I chamber them for the 40gr Griffins and tune them for high transonic). I stopped using FX liners in my higher power builds, because they did not hold up for me over time. I have some very accurate FX liners in other rifles that have held up great though. Testing some custom LW poly barrels this week, and then I'm moving on to more R&D with .22 rimfire barrels. Shilen & TJs are on the menu 😎

Check out my video where I fixed the FX liner I had to make a lapping tool first I made it out of lead I poured it in the barrel the old-school way took that out sandcast a brass tool smoothing it out it was a lot of work then I pressed it through so the barrel was true all the way down there were no more inconsistencies. I started shooting it and it was still 2 1/2 inch group. So I started cutting the choke off 1/64 at a time it ended up being about 3/8 of it cut off and if you watch my group they’re all going and a half inch it was .4 so I fix the liner but the thing is it’s too much work. I couldn’t offer that service to people because of how many different twist rates they have I’d have to make a tool for every liner every six hours of work people are better off just going and getting a Lothar Walther poly barrel in machining at the fit the gun.

I’m gonna drill the choke off this gun tomorrow off my Edgun . Because a lot of people don’t have the option of taking a gun to a machine shop or doing up them selves like we do. Watch my P 12 shoot that hundred yard group at .413. I noticed when I shot a group that was 1.2 I put a slug down the barrel and there was about a quarter inch at the end of the barrel where the slug slid easier. And I got five kids here so it’s hard for me to get downstairs and get the barrel on the live so I drilled a half inch right. And I figure if it works I’ll just cut the remainder that’s hanging out off and then I’ll thread the end of the barrel. I take the gun out and I should .413 I am not even cutting off the old threads for the suppressor I’m leaving it right where it is. So then I tried the same thing on a Walther maxima Thor that I have 25 Cal. And the gun shoots a little over a half inch group at 100 yards now all they did was drill it finish it really nice. And there’s a kind of funny story with it about using stones I’m gonna shoot the video tomorrow I hope you watch it. I custom size the stone to go in the end of the barrel where I drilled. I was using another Stone to shape it it took like 20 minutes to get it to the shape and size. So I put it in the end of the barrel where I had it drilled and I barely touch the crown to clean it up right. I take the gun out and shoot it and it’s like a sex change group I’m like what the hell. So I figure I got a hit the crown more I’m going to look at the stone if I had that thing in there 20 seconds it was a lot it actually cut Stone down and dug into the rifling so I had to drill it back another quarter inch and make a tool to re-crown go inside that hole and re-crown. And once I did that spot on. All the stuff I’m doing is for guys who don’t have the option to go to a machine shop they can do this in their house. And all the barrel stuff I’m teaching these guys my father was a master gunsmith he taught me how to read these barrels and how to fix this rifling. No normallyYou make a laughing tool but how did these guys do that in their house when they’ve never done it before. So I design this other system that I use now that works great. If I was doing 35 Cal or 45 I would make a lapping tool.

I have an FX Crown MK2 .25 and an FX Impact .25, I consistently shoot starlings and pigeons out beyond 200+ yards. FX makes absolutely beautiful looking and superbly accurate guns. With as much production that they have, There is bound to be a lemon once in awhile. It happens. Unfortunately. I however, received rifles that don't have any accuracy problems. Granted...when I first started shooting slugs I couldnt get a good group to save my life...until I really started to understand how to tune my rifles, I eventually found the tune that has my guns so accurate, its utterly shocking at how accurate they are. I'm sorry but this gentlemen at first sounded like he had some interesting and helpful advice, but after watching quite a few of his videos it really starts to sound like he's whining and complaining and just flat out bashing FX. There's a reason Air Rifle competitions around the world are being won with FX air rifles. It's not a fluke. It's because they make incredible, accurate, cutting edge air rifles.

I’ve got three barrels and everyone of them has the flaws that’s why I don’t use them they’re junk. I do realize you’re doing that for Matthew Dubber and that’s OK. My button rifled barrels have proven their accuracy. It is a fact that button rifling is more accurate than pressing rifling from the outside. The tubes that those barrels are made of or not perfect so you have an inconsistency in your inner rifling diameter. I guess what I’m saying is you’re lying. And another issue is the choke get up there on KZread watch air Hunter Girard or Matt Dubber and watch their slugs spiraling. And the spiral comes from the very poorly manufactured barrels. Slugs cannot be shot accurately through a chalk that is a fact. I suggest you get yourself a Walther button rifle barrel or a poly barrel no choke If you are shooting slugs and you will see the accuracy. The best you’re going to get out of an FX liner is an inch and a half at 100 yards.

My SK-19 hasn’t found a slug that it likes to date but FX .34 grain pellets drive tacks.

The SKs poly barrel send pigeons to the afterlife well past 100 yards and then some. JSB .34 grain in the SK shotgun pattern compared to the FX .34 grain pellets however.

Is anyone actually taking this guy seriously? 😂, the amount of subscribers says a lot, 15k on 10 fx rifles but they’re terrible? let’s just ignore all the videos of the SA guys and others shooting slugs with impacts, they’re all fake 🤔🤔😂

I just came here to read the comments and troll the blowhard.

Where i can buy Poly barel Non Choke ? & this work for cal .177 ???

Lol. Love your channel. Never owned an fx. I want a pcp with a barrel minimum. A liner doesn't meet my minimum requirements.

You can guarantee with your polishing and lapping no more flyers. Sorry I call bullshit. But hey I get it. You want to start a uTube channel and figure you’ll troll Matt and get subs. 😂😂😂. Watch this dudes first video no slugs. He loves fox guns then.

I also would like to see the video how to polish my liner.

Pretty sure the only thing this guy polishes is his tiny knob.

It’s great listening to these FX GUYS CRYING, you are almost entirely right, and I own an FX.

It looks that you have some kind of problems with the FX brand and are on a hate/revanche mission, but I only see a pissed off man talking and jabbering, but you show us nothing, I own A FX Impact MKII that is unbelievable accurate with the STX Superior liner at 125m, and the results are the only thing that matters to me. But I hope that you sleep better after you let of your steam. Greetings from the Netherlands.

True. I wonder if he is referring to stock barrels? Because he said he used JB Weld to bond the liner to the sleeve. Either way. He needs to address this.

Take a long series 4.5mm drill and you will soon see how easily bend ! This sounds like a job for ProjectFarm !

I would love a Walther barrel on my Impact! Maybe you should start selling them! If you do, count me in for a 600mm in .22 and one in .177. That would be really awesome to have the shroud just screw on like a direct replacement!!

I haven’t seen to many ED Guns winning RMAC . Ted Bier used to shoot ED Guns a lot but he has won RMAC but with .25 Cal FX Impact . I have a mk || and it is aTack Driver .also have a much forgotten Streamline in .22 shoots lights out and I’m a vermin controller for our local Council. Go Fx the Best. Cheers Dean

@@jasonnewton3842 Well I've replied twice with the link to the basic calculation of a cantilevered beam enduring a single point load at it's unsupported end. Which is calculation that applies to the narrator pressing on the end of the floating barrel. Something I'm sure a lot of folks would do when shooting a loaded weapon. I'm a Qualified Structural Engineer (I qualified 35 years ago). I'm fairly certain the only calculation that would have been considered that's similar is the effect of self weight unsupported, or perhaps that includes the possibility of of cantilever length change with the addition of an extensions (such as a moderator) when in consideration of the rotation crushing/compression of the underside of shroud to assist determine shroud wall thickness and thread pitch/style, and/or barrel deflection relating to barrel wall thickness and stiffness of barrel material. I have never seen someone end load a floating barrel when live firing. The forces demonstrated to not apply to normal IN USE design criteria. I'd be grateful if you'd explain the comparison between the variables relating to the demonstration of deflecting a cantilever, and the design of a floating barrel and shroud. Thanks a lot

Watch the FX factory tour video. They have an employee that has an arbor press and dial indicator. He says that he has to straighten the barrels because they come in bent. Lol. Great FX Quality 🤔

I would love to get info on getting a Walther barrel for my maverick 35cal impact...do you know how I can get one ..ty.

It seems you may need to spend some more time in the machine shop. Drill bits do have some “give” and as another viewer commented drill drifting is also another issue to contend with. This is true even when using large drills. It is also possible for the material bow when hogging out the initial hole. This can be caused by the relationship between tool feed pressure and a dull drill. It doesn’t matter if it’s a modern carbide insert drill or a standard drill, eventually the cutting edge does deteriorate. Although for production purposes most efficient manufacturing processes use a non-traditional drill with carbide inserts to effectively move a lot of material when boring the initial hole. I won’t even get into your method measuring the ID of the barrels with the $10 Harbor freight calipers (not a mic). Bottom line is there’s a certain way to call somebody out that has established a reputation for them self. In any industry the unspoken understanding is the same. This was not the way to do it. Most viewers watching both sides of this this are disappointed in both of you. Because this is petty.

We weren’t talking about drifting we were talking about the bed flexing I half inch supposedly in the center of the barrel and then when I got to end the end of the barrel it’s centered itself again so both ends centered And the metal was three eights inch off I call bullshit that can’t happen that will never happen don’t tell me you’re a machinist you can have drift you could start at the center on one end and be a quarter inches off on the other end but what you will not have is a bowl in the middle

A drill bit is not the tool of choice for removing a choke. You need a tapered ream with the final o.d. at or just shy of your finished land i.d. A ream will much more accurately follow the existing bore without deviation. Then lap and polish it in for a proper choke removal.

Wow, and FX gun of choice to complain about is the Bobcat - an 8 year old product. How many models have released to replace or upgrade this original offering? Geez Jim, you really went to town on FX's current line up and 8 years of product development by using an 8 year old design? You're little more than an aggressive Sales Man, and you just showed yourself the door! Outstanding performance from the E-Commerce guide to Clout Grabbing. Hopefully, you either change your ethics, or your channel gains no further mileage. I'm OUT!

Nice video my friend

Why pellets do not need any harmonic tuning as opposite to slugs?

What edgun is that? With the wooden stock?

I'm from rifle and newish into PCP. I own one with a LW barrel, no complaints and before i bought any PCPs I did a heap of research and quickly released it's stability which counts for quite a lot with these things. There is a lot of marketing hype re the FX guns for sure; I'm not convinced about it because so many seem to get the guns given to them to shoot and like all things, this will introduce some bias about "how good it is". The thinness of these liners does nothing to convince me of how good this "invention" is. U are def right re the cost of manufacturing is reduced by making such barrels.

And will you show the video of you shooting 1/4 inch groups at 100 yards...or what that size was?

its amazing its 2022 and fx is still leading the acuracy with slugs and pellets and have equaled the power of 22lr target ammo with consistant acuracy YEA THEY DONT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING wake up amazing airguns you have been proven wrong again and again

What a chop, go back and get schooled by the master Matt…

I could tell from first video you were nutty but I like it. Jb welding barrel liners. Diy spirit I love it. Keep them coming.

Poor interpretation of the evidence: If the barrel blank is not straight before it is drilled, the hole may be straight, but it will not be in the center of the blank. Hence, barrel blanks are checked for straightness before drilling and reaming; and after rifling. Then the blank is turned down using the actual bore line as the center. How do you measure groove diameter on a five groove barrel, using a caliper? FX barrels are made that way to keep cost down. If they shoot well, they are "perfect". The fact that they need a choke to shoot well, could be an indication of diametral anomalies down the tube - like so many airgun barrels. I agree that FX liners are too thin to be stiff. They need help. The least FX could do is put in a dozen support O-rings, instead of 3. Anyway, the latest FX trend is towards carbon fiber sleeves that are snug to the straw liner.

A vernier caliper is not a deburring tool either.

What a hit piece! I watched just to see if you would set yourself up for a lawsuit. I'm a fan of opposing views and explanation but uncalled for insults makes me and your video poorer for the effort. It was time I'll never get back. There's this little thing called the free market. If an air rifle has a market value over $2000 and the factory can't keep up with orders.....enough said.

Yeah I love the bobcat to.. Beautifull rifle waited a while to get my hands on a second hand one.

He says it all with conviction, I'll give him that! I have a dreamline and a diana outlaw, the outlaw shoots slugs terrible while the fx shoots them pretty good. Neither one will group pellets at 100yds like the RWS 54 airking, the recoiless springer I have. I've spent a lifetime shooting NRA rifle silhouette, NBRSA benchrest and now NRL22, my air rifles have always been practice guns for real gun competitions. Unless you can't legally own real firearms not sure what the point of a 30 caliber airgun is especially if it's loud, thinking a 308 might be a better choice.

Hi guys I see both sides , I think it would be wise fir fx to go down the solid barrel route , as a liner then barrel tensioner then a harmonic tuner at the front then a barrel tensioner at the rear …. Would a solid barrel sort this out ???? I’ve seen a LW barrel on a fx produce better groups my self . I’m not pro LW as I have 4 CZ guns and you simply can’t beat them !! All the best 😎
