About
What it is, and why it matters
The FX Impact is a regulated pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) bullpup air rifle introduced in 2016 by FX Airguns of Sweden. Built around a fully modular platform, it allows the shooter to change calibers, barrel lengths, and barrel liners by swapping components, and features a reversible side-lever cocking action, a carbon-fibre air cylinder, and a removable rotary magazine. Its tool-adjustable regulator, hammer spring, and valve let users tune power from low-energy plinking levels up to over 60 joules in .25 calibre, making it a benchmark for precision airgun hunting and long-range target shooting.
FX Airguns was founded by Swedish airgun designer Fredrik Axelsson, and the Impact's fully modular, tool-tunable design helped redefine the high-end PCP airgun market for hunters and extreme-range pellet shooters.
Highly modular and tunable; later revised as the MkII, M3, and M4. Available in .177, .22, .25, .30, and .35 calibres via interchangeable barrels and bolts.

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.
