Detailed Overview:
The pre-owned FX Impact MK1 in .25 calibre is a testament to Swedish airgun innovation, offering a unique combination of power, accuracy, and versatility that has made it a favourite among serious airgun enthusiasts. This FAC-rated version harnesses the full potential of the Impact platform, delivering impressive power that makes it suitable for a wide range of applications, from long-range target shooting to small game hunting.At the heart of the FX Impact MK1 is its highly efficient valve system, capable of propelling .25 calibre pellets at velocities up to 940 fps, translating to muzzle energies well over the UK’s 12 ft-lbs limit for non-FAC air rifles. This power is harnessed through an innovative adjustable system, allowing the user to fine-tune the rifle’s output to suit different pellet weights or shooting scenarios.
The power adjustment is easily accessible, with a large, clearly marked dial on the left side of the action. One of the standout features of the Impact MK1 is its exceptional shot count. From a 250-bar fill, users can expect hundreds of consistent shots, even at higher power settings. This impressive efficiency is thanks to the rifle’s large-capacity carbon fibre air bottle and regulated action, ensuring shot-to-shot consistency throughout the charge. The bottle is removable for safety during transportation, but charging is done on-gun via a Foster-style quick-connect fitting.
The FX Impact MK1’s accuracy potential is remarkable, thanks in large part to its Smooth Twist X barrel technology. This innovative rifling method produces exceptional accuracy with a wide range of pellet types. In .25 calibre, the Impact is capable of producing sub-1-inch groups at 50 yards when paired with quality pellets, making it a formidable tool for long-range shooting and hunting. Feeding the Impact is a smooth side-lever action coupled with a rotary magazine system. The .25 calibre version typically offers a 16-shot capacity, providing ample firepower for extended shooting sessions or hunting trips. The side-lever is positioned for easy operation without breaking your shooting position, allowing for quick follow-up shots when needed.
Customization is a key aspect of the FX Impact MK1’s design. The stock is highly adjustable, with the ability to alter the buttpad height and angle to achieve a perfect fit. This adjustability, combined with the rifle’s compact bullpup configuration, results in a comfortable shooting platform that can be tailored to shooters of various sizes and shooting styles. For optics and accessories, the Impact features a full-length Picatinny rail along the top of the action, providing a stable mounting platform for scopes, rangefinders, or other accessories.
Additional accessory rails can be found on the forend, allowing for the attachment of bipods, lasers, or lights as needed. One of the most unique features of the FX Impact series is its interchangeable barrel system. While this pre-owned rifle comes in .25 calibre, the platform allows for relatively easy calibre changes with the appropriate barrel and pellet probe. This versatility makes the Impact an excellent choice for shooters who may want to use different calibres for various applications in the future. The two-stage match trigger is another highlight of the FX Impact MK1. It’s fully adjustable for both first and second stage weights, as well as trigger blade position. This level of customization allows shooters to set up the trigger to their exact preferences, contributing to the rifle’s exceptional accuracy potential.
As a pre-owned item, this FX Impact MK1 offers exceptional value. It provides access to high-end airgun technology and performance at a more accessible price point than a new rifle. The excellent condition of this second-hand item ensures that its new owner will enjoy the full capabilities of this precision instrument. In conclusion, this pre-owned FX Impact MK1 in .25 calibre FAC represents a rare opportunity to own one of the most advanced and versatile air rifles on the market. Its combination of power, accuracy, and adjustability makes it an ideal choice for serious airgun enthusiasts, whether their interests lie in target shooting, pest control, or small game hunting.
