Recently received a FX Panthers 700 for Xmas from my wife. I’ve been playing with 33gr HP and sighting it in with a Kahles scope. Experimenting with pressures and speed. They shoot in a tiny hole at 50 yards at 975fps. I bought three types of slugs with all being .218” diameter. I bought some of the Zan ELR coated 34.6 gr and was really disappointed in their terrible performance. Was wondering if anyone has had the same experience. The HN are way cheaper and shoot fantastic so I guess I shouldn’t worry about it. I also have some lighter Nielsen’s that I haven’t tried yet. What are you fellow nutrs finding that works for you ??

Thanks and I’ll give them some testing. What are you running for glass. I’m planning on using it for competitions so basically want to duplicate what my Vudoo is capable of! Good ammo is becoming difficult to aquire so the PCP opens another door..
 
My bad, it was the M4 Sniper 700, not an M3. As for the optic, I am running a Element Titan 5-25x56 FFP in MRAD. Scope has been outstanding for the last few years. So much so that I just put on an Element Helix 4-16x44 on a Umarex Gauntlet SL30 (haven't had a chance to get this one put thru it's paces yet though).
Mine runs the Javelin's right at 920fps with my setup. I could speed them up, but the gun likes them at that speed.

Well Im definately going to give those Javelins a thorough testing. Good to get a report on the optic as well. Will be looking into that as well. Where did you purchase the Element Titan from?
