About
What it is, and why it matters
The FX DRS is a regulated pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) air rifle introduced in 2023 by FX Airguns of Sweden. It pairs the AMP MkII adjustable regulator with a tactical plenum and FX's APB (Air Pressure Barrel) system, in which the barrel runs through the air cylinder for a low-profile, rigid layout. A reversible side-lever feeds a removable rotary magazine, and in .22 calibre it drives a 15.89-grain pellet to roughly 915 fps (279 m/s) for about 40 joules, with up to around 60 regulated shots per 230-bar fill. Offered in .177, .22, and .25 calibres with interchangeable barrel liners, it is aimed at airgun hunters and precision target shooters.
FX Airguns was founded by Swedish airgun designer Fredrik Axelsson; the DRS (Dynamic Reduced Size) line packs the brand's modular, tool-tunable Impact-derived technology into a more compact, accessible PCP platform, with a Tactical variant built around an AR-15-inspired chassis.
Sold in 500mm, 600mm, and 700mm barrel configurations plus a DRS Tactical chassis model; figures here are for the 600mm synthetic in .22 calibre (5.2 lb, 260cc cylinder, ~60 shots/fill). Magazine capacity and shot count vary by calibre and barrel length.

Trajectory
What the round does downrange
Solved from the muzzle figures and the bullet. The dashed rule is the effective range on the record, and the crosses are the steps the solver returned.
No load solved for this record yetThe flight path is computed from a cartridge and a bullet. This record has no ammunition filed against its chambering, so there is nothing to solve.
