FX Airguns DRS Pro

RubiconJoey

Silver $$ Contributor
It looks like FX airguns is trying to break into the PRS/NRL 22 game. FX has always been known for their accuracy in the airgun world. It will be interesting to see how far they make it into a rimfire dominated game. Personally I love airguns and like the idea of the DRS Pro for a number of reasons (tunable, less noise, cheaper ammo) but, I'd love to hear your take on it. Can a PCP be competitive against rimfires?

IMO FX is the Hornady of the PB world. Launching too many products with no support and coping other companies with a slight twist and calling it ground breaking. I do give them credit to making the first mid-side lever bullpup (wildcat) and modular-outside-tuning designed (impact) but like the impact, users had problems with leaks, shifting POI, and weak design.
I'm not an FX hater and I had/have many FX pcp's. Just giving my opinion.

PoI shift keeps it from being competitive. It needs a solution. Maybe this will be it? Probably not. I could have good impacts at two hundred and 300 yards but then bump that barrel and can't hit nothing within 100 yards.
 
In the 100 yard game I would say yes they will be competitive, along with other companies. This comes from someone with about .0009 experience. I just bought a used ImpactX to replace 50 yard and under ammo use. Time will tell.
