THANK YOU! I've been searching for a review on the FX Panthera 600/.177cal model.

[@tawaitai]

Finally a design that looks like a "REAL" precision firearm with the bottle in the rear instead of the front which of course would "NOT" look like a real firearm.

Som altid en super video ven.👍👍

[@VikingAirgunner]

Tak for det Michael 🙂 Ha en god weekend 😎

[@recklessjunkie]

That’s crazy I just bought a 600 mm panthera yesterday should get it in a few days. and look at that you release the panthera video nice little treat to get a different perspective on the rifle thanks

[@VikingAirgunner]

When just havin ordered a rifle the wait always feels like an eternity 😃 Im happy that I could help you with passing the time 🙂 I hope that you will like it mate 😎

[@hackerrank9173]

I really wanted to know about fx panthera from .177 perspective...thanks for the review .

[@VikingAirgunner]

You are welcome buddy 🙂

[@limitedto.177]

The one that i waiting for 😁😁😁

[@VikingAirgunner]

Thanks buddy 🤗

[@peashooter950]

Nice. 👍

[@VikingAirgunner]

Thanks buddy 🙂

[@gigolocan8914]

Just a FYI for anyone wondering, a 580cc bottle will (just) fit with an arca accu tac! (Fc4)

[@VikingAirgunner]

Thanks for sharing mate 🤗

Hi Peter, Again very good and informative video. Thank you for your time and effort! Please note that the Panthera's standard rail is not too stiff and placing the bipod so far forward often causes problems with poi shift. Also installing a bubble level should always be done on the scope to rule out that scope and barrel are not in line with the rail. After your scope review it might be an idea to make a video regarding windage zeroing by scope alignment and barrel indexing. Scope cant and gun cant are often misunderstood and there is no other video that covers all these aspects for correctly leveling a scope and aligning it to the barrel.

[@VikingAirgunner]

Thanks for your input 🤗 There are some things I can look into 🤓🤗

[@safakaswedishairgunforum-n1490]

welcome to the Panthera family-i just got mine. did get a funny idea last time i eatched Your episode of shooting stuff with the high power impact of Yours, what if You shoot stuff with the pantera and i repeat and shoot the same type of stuff with my panthera in .30 cal on my channel? im a swedish viking 😁like a scandinavian viking thing…🔫👍

[@anthonydefillippis8806]

The side cocking lever is adjustable so that way it won’t lock in place like that. There are videos out there on how to adjust.

[@VikingAirgunner]

That is good info 👍👍👍 Thanks for sharing mate 🤗

[@anthonydefillippis8806]

I believe I saw it on Ernest Row disassembly and assembly video.

Fx Panthera 600 .177 cal 50+FPE shooting 1070 fps with 20gr ZAN at apprx 180 bar HST with std hammer maxed 4 ): 50fpe .177 killer and accurate aswell. Slow reg... Loves H&N 20 gr + very soft ZAN's 20 gr moa @ 100 m in good conditions outside . MD 45 suppressor .17 cal My gun is a shooter!! high bc

[@VikingAirgunner]

Thats a BEAST 😎

[@Nick-gi6ym]

Wonder if you should try a heavier pellet or go down to 890 fps. Thank You

[@tawaitai]

Peter you know that the FX Pocket Chrono connects to the rear of the action & stock extension right???

[@VikingAirgunner]

I didnt try that, but I would imagine that it is too far from the muzzle🤔

[@Zoltan74]

Hi! Thanks for the test! Wow, I would love an air rifle like that! 20.5gn NSA slug and around 1000f/s. As far as I know, this would be entirely possible with this air rifle! It would be a dream for me! Can I have a question? Why do you think every slug I've seen so far has a hollow /expanding head/? A domed head would provide much better air resistance for target shooting! Better BC value. I'm not talking about hunting, because I don't like killing animals or anything, i am only interested in long range target shooting! Do you know of any slug that weighs around 15-16gn and domed head not a hollow point design? The Hollow point design slug is more for the hunters, but for me, better BC value, more streamlined design more important!

[@VikingAirgunner]

The Panthera is a great rifle and I understand why you want one 🙂 As for the slugs I dont know if they are made without hollow point by anyone. I seem to remember Air Tac Huntings Rolf talking about ballistics saying that the hollow point does not affect the bc🤔

[@recklessjunkie]

Yeah honestly the first time I saw the panthera I fell in love with it the dynamic doesn’t really do it for me mainly because of the bottle being used as the buttstock the plastic stock thing I’m not really into that just seems cheap to me but the Panthera has that really nice adjustable buttstock and it just looks so cool and it’s very functional I also went with the 600 mm because of the length of that 700 with moderator is just waaaaay too long so the 600 seems like the sweet spot for this rifle in my eyes I’m just hoping that I’m not missing out on some accuracy gain only the 700 can provide but I have a feeling it’ll be just fine

[@VikingAirgunner]

Agree with you completely! I dont really think that we are missing out on accuracy, but we do compromise some power when getting the 600 and not the 700 mm. But in my case I will use the 16 gr Zan and not the 20 gr, so not really a sacrifice 🙂

[@recklessjunkie]

I Cannot wait to shoot this thing! I honestly consider this rifle a serious player in the airgun world and that it’s probably not going away anytime soon. Pretty much on that level with the impact. I really do think the panthera isn’t gonna be like a “one off” type gun like the maverick. It’s gonna be around awhile, with a ton of support and after market goodies. 😊

[@tawaitai]

According to FX the Panthera 600 & 700 model is producing identical power/fps which would make no negligible difference, personally the 600 is the happy-medium choice with the larger plenum as in the 700. The 500 is a compact hunter, the 600 precision hunter, the 700 precision bench rest model.

[@AntonyLD]

#vikingairgunner Awesome video Peter. I no longer "want" a pantera, I "need" one. Your videos have cost me quite a lot so far, LOL. I think you will be making me spend a LOT more £££. Your videos are getting more and more professional . If I ever get the opportunity to visit Denmark I would very much like to meet you and be very boring about air guns!

[@VikingAirgunner]

Haha Im sorry that I cost you alot of money - but speaking from experience they are usually well spent 😜😂 If you ever come by Denmark you are welcome to drop by 🙂

[@AntonyLD]

@@VikingAirgunner one day we hope to cycle round Denmark. I understand you have excellent cycle routes.

Som altid super godt. Panthera 600 på vej til mig. Hvilken dæmper var det du brugte?

[@VikingAirgunner]

Hvor dejligt 🤗 Det er en Huma Mod 40 3. Den er på Huma-Airs hjemmeside 🙂 Husk at søge om tilladelse inden import 🤓

[@steenschjaellerup1142]

Har allerede våbentilladelse til 22lr. Så det skulle ikke være et problem. Så vidt jeg læser mig frem til🤔😁

[@VikingAirgunner]

@@steenschjaellerup1142 Super! Jeg kan i hvert fald anbefale Humas. Og en fordel at man kan tilføje eller fjerne dele af dæmperen, så den kan komme til at performe præcis, som man har brug for 🤓

[@torkfiretm]

Får dere bestillt Hausken MD45 i 17 cal fra Norge eller lokalt. Demonterbar , stålkjerne mm litt heft - ikke lett, men er topp for presisjon og Pantheraen blir er "ninja - hush" quiet

[@jc-d6179]

Have a look at the review and viewer comments from Sub12 airgunners. Not so rosy. They need to improve production consistency to match the excellent design effort.

[@VikingAirgunner]

I have just published a video where I replace the AMP reg with the Huma reg. This will solve a big part of the problem. Check it out here on my channel :-)

[@joshuagibson2520]

I have heard you mention that you're limited to 177 cal. Do you have an energy limit, or can you run as heavy of projectile as you please?

[@VikingAirgunner]

Yes we are limited to 177 and no limits in power levels 😜

[@peashooter950]

@@VikingAirgunner Not yet, but with the recent " cat thing " in town, i expect more panic lawmaking from our imbecilic benevolent masters.

[@hotchihuahua1546]

What is the overall length of your Panthera setup as compared to your Impact 800mm barrel & moderator ?

[@VikingAirgunner]

@@hotchihuahua1546 the measurements are on fx web 🙂

[@jamesdenny4734]

Say, are you shooting sub 12 fpe .177 with both the Pantera, n the Dynamic?

[@VikingAirgunner]

In Denmark we are not limited, so its full throttle 😎

[@jamesdenny4734]

@VikingAirgunner if you have a 177 Dynamic? I'm wondering what's taking so long for them to reach the States? What is the velocity of the dynamic?

[@VikingAirgunner]

@@jamesdenny4734 they are available at Airgun Titans

[@robbydinar6064]

Are the Panthera liners and FX MK3 liners actually the same?

[@VikingAirgunner]

Yes exactly the same 🙂

[@joshuagibson2520]

The rear bottle looks very cumbersome. More so the small gap between the bottle and grip. Maybe not as bad bench shooting or fixed position.

[@joshuagibson2520]

I like the front bottle you showed. Can you run the front bottle only?

[@SnipeLoisirsTestsCustoms]

Hi friend it's been a while since I watched your videos, still a very good video and you have eaison the panthera is great, go see mine it looks more like the original lol 😂 👏👊

[@hackerrank9173]

Panthera doesn't have Valve Adjuster 😢...I want a gun with valve adjuster and dual regulator of impact m3 + new valve system of Panthera....that would be nice gun😅

[@VikingAirgunner]

I dont think that we have seen the last of guns based on the dynamic block, so maybe it will happen some day 😃
