A dedicated, purpose-built air rifle made to win precision rifle competitions
The FX Panthera is unlike any rifle FX Airguns have made before. It is a dedicated slug rifle, purpose-built with precision competition in mind, and complete with airgun innovation that continues the FX Airguns tradition of pushing the boundaries of airgun performance.
A Generational Leap Forwards
The Panthera includes technology that is a generational leap-forward for an airgun. It begins with the new Dynamic Block, a new breech block designed from the ground up for performance slug shooting. The Dynamic Block utilises a compact one-piece valve. This High-Power / Short-Impulse Valve is extremely efficient while allowing an immense and precise flow of air.
The plenum feeding the Panthera is revolutionary and the first of its kind. The Dynamic Plenum is an over-the-barrel plenum which provides a consistent regulated pressurized plenum around the barrel, adding incredible stiffness to the barrel as well as allowing multiple plenum lengths to be employed to match the calibre and power of the rifle.
Precise levels of pressure are maintained by the single AMP MKII Regulator
The results of the Dynamic Breech & Plenum are extraordinary! Testing has yielded constant 10 shot strings with standard deviations in the low 1.02.0 range with extreme spreads as low as 3-4. This ability to precisely control air flow paired with the world-class FX Superior STX barrel using premium slugs will yield competition wins, and not just in airgun competitions.
Designed for Competition Shooting
The Panthera stock is designed for competition. It features a 14.75 long Arca rail complete with M-LOK sections and a barricade block nestled next to the breech. Achieve an ideal balance point by adding external M-LOK compatible weights or internal FX Barrel Weights that attach under the shroud
The Panthera further fits the shooter using a fully adjustable buttstock and an adjustable cheekpiece that is also ambidextrous. The Pantheras air source is a 300cc carbon fiber bottle attached in the rear and is filled via a rear located foster quick disconnect.
The Dynamic block has a larger breech than previous rifles that allows projectiles up to 13mm in length. It uses the Standard Side-Shot Magazine but with a newly designed deeper lid to accommodate longer length slugs. The FX Panthera employs the Quick Tune System, a 20MOA picatinny scope rail, comes standard with a zero-angle grip and has an ambidextrous sidelever cocking handle that is reversible to the left side of the rifle. Dual angled Manometers on the left side of the block show the bottle pressure and the regulated plenum pressure.
World Changing
Truly the precision rifle world will forever be changed with the new FX Panthera. The rifle feels and shoots like a precision 22LR, enjoying straight back recoil, but with precision and accuracy only found with an FX Airgun!
