I filmed this BEFORE the Saber Rail & GRS Bipod combo was developed (and you will see details about those products in other people's videos) but I will say that they work GREAT with this setup. The top-mounted bipod creates a very stable platform. And to answer some other questions I anticipate will pop up: YES, the tensioner will be available for other barrel lengths, YES the 800mm barrel will be available for other calibers up to .35 and YES I will be using this setup for RMAC PRS, shooting slugs;)

Great air rifles but i think the greatest marketing con. You lash out two and a half grand for a rifle and straight away you have to spend lots more just to achieve what you bought the rifle for.

I'm new to air guns, I'm an archery and powder gun guy for what seems like for ever. Got into air guns because our son wanted to help grandpa with his pest control problem (chipmunks and now ground hogs). I got him a .177 cal barrel break that we love to shoot, but need to get him and his sister a smaller youth size gun for them. I'm looking a a couple different guns for them and a couple for myself (for me in .22 to .30 cal) to do some small game hunting this year. This video was very interesting to me; with powder rifles I prefer longer barrels typically, that there is so much you can do to improve your setup! Great video and impressed how much collaboration went into this 800mm barrel! Very nice to see that people still share ideas if for nothing else as their love of the sport!

Nevertheless, the point is: The collabos with different manufacturers had a big positive impact on Matt and this channel in general, but in my mind, he stray far from what this channel used to be. There was a time when this channel wasn't as much commercialy, but content-driven. Sure, it's a subjective observation, and without any doubt, he deserves what this channel provides him with. Yet, it's not for me anymore.

FYI - None of these parts are available in USA to customers or dealers (800mm tensioned CF barrel kit, power block, tungsten hammer). FX will not update dealers and give them an ETA for order fulfillment. Overall these parts mainly went to "influencers" and a few lucky individuals. It's overall vaporware.

Hello my friend, I have a question regarding the difference in speed at different temperatures with the same regulation. For example, my gun was firing at 270 ms (885 FPS) regulated at a temperature of about 32 Cº (90 F), I had it stopped for about 1 month and I went to shoot and the gun was only 255 MS (826 FPS) ), but the temperature was around 15ºc (59F), I even changed some orings thinking it was a leak but it wasn't the case. Is all this variation normal? OR is something wrong?

A couple of folks have mentioned that simply making the barrel stiffer would obviate the need to go to the need for a barrel tensioner. Presumably it is because a stiffer barrel would have to be thicker and therefor heavier, or is it something else? Perhaps the nature of how the FX barrels are made prevents them from being thicker?

Matt dubber.. Am I getting this right? From what I understand the power stuff is more for 600-800mm barrels? Where the more air doesn't really work with a 500mm barrel.... because you get more air time from adding a heavier hammer so the valve stays open longer so you can lower reg pressure and still get the air needed for +600mm barrels.? My MK 2 with a 35cal valve housing, 500mm barrel, reg 140, line 4, V2 port, 10gn at 1095fps, 16gn at 965fps. So I won't get much benefit from the power kit.?
