Sig MCX Virtus PCP - Accuracy Problem Solved?

[@andresitochiriboga]

Good follow up video Evan. Thank you

[@NordicMeatShield]

The mags on these are the same as the Co2 MPX and they shot flat heads the best, might be worth a try

[@jeremielibraty7]

Flatheads on the .177 were the absolute most accurate expect a 1 inch group at 25-30 yards with the .22 version with meisterkugeln flat 14 grain pellets. Yes I have 2 of these rifles already. The .22 is actually quiet amazing Suppressed mines already. ;)

[@NordicMeatShield]

@josh langley It's still going strong 1000+ pellets and it is vital that you use the right pellet for this rifle which are the Predator GTO .22 Cal, 11.75 Grains, Domed, Lead-Free, 200ct air gun pellets or other pellets around that weight ..i get 1" groups and is hitting everything i aim at upto 40yards ..watch this, skip to 12mins kzbin.info/www/bejne/b33YY2punbN7otk

[@brorjordas1979]

Were not expecting any PCP hunting/target rifle accuracy from this one to begin with. But, yes. Seating the pellets well probably is the best thing to do on this PCP version also (just by guessing that the internals may be somewhat based upon the co2 version). Own a co2 MCX and like very much to shoot it. Yeah - it has been a bit troublesome airgun, but I still like it. Have had it opened for fixing many times. Expect to need to fix something on this one also - whenever I finally get my hamds on one.. My MCX shoots a bit hotter from original nowadays, so the groups tend to look like columns because of hits dropping lower after the co2 cools down. 1" wide groups from 15 meters before power starts dropping is though good enough for me. Would just like more power consistency provided by a PCP system. But I guess it takes some time before the rifle reaches my airgun store this spring/summer..

Best fittings do silencer adaptor for them if any one who wonts one in uk

[@joshturner9766]

what most people here dont realise is this is semi auto so your accuracy is also judged on your ability to pull the trigger without movement of the scope (even a little)

[@everythingdude4265]

Yeah I thought the same thing and I don’t see any issue with accuracy at all most people probably aren’t strong enough too pull the double stage trigger hard enough without flinching around there sights by doing so I put a drop of oil in the internals of the trigger and the double trigger feel is much smoother now you almost don’t notice people just don’t want too put in a little work for a good experience and expect the rifle too be properly lubricated and maintained etc fresh out the box.

[@jungleghostsurvival]

It a suppression rifle for fast response rifle not a target rifle that is why it was made by Sig for training

[@anthonyberrymartialartofli4458]

3/16 drill bit clears excessive drag from the magazine. Use a drill press for accuracy. Be sure to clean it. Barrel shipping grease can be an issue.

[@caseG80]

@Joshua Langley yes the groves on the side of mag is what’s causing the pellets to get damaged push some thur it’s visible immediately cheers

[@caseG80]

Hey Anthony I went on your channel and couple of your song video are banned here in US it says where you from I find it hilarious 😂 it said this video banned in your country anyways cheers

[@TacticalJackalope]

I can't tell you if you were speeding up the shooting process in editing or if you were really shooting that fast. This gun is regulated and to take full advantage of that(shot to shot consistency) I recommend shooting no faster than about one round every 5 seconds for the regulator to recover. Both German manufacturers make flat nosed/wadcutter pellets btw. There are folks on Ebay selling pellet seaters for this gun that will do more than one at a time.

[@heithwatkins]

Thank God I haven't bought one yet! But to mabey help. Maybe you need to shoot very light 22cal pellets. 12grn, or less. This is only sub 12ft pounds after all. I most certainly wouldn't dream of anything over 14 grn. Call SIG. Ask them what it's made to shoot. After all, they made it. ....Good luck and God bless you.

[@Bmr4life]

I'm dying while I wait to get my Virtus back. Very informative video though. Thanks

[@reelfishing002]

My first one was good , my replacement one is horrible , you can actually see the pellet spiral , groups are like a shotgun birdshot

[@AntitrollRusse]

Pour améliorer la précision, il faut resserrer le canon et le caler à l'intérieur du fût, la fixation d'origine a été très mal pensée. Après avoir cela, n'importe quel plomb donnera un bon résultat.

[@johnnyvonline1862]

did you ever find any better ammo?

[@logansvatos8137]

Im wondering what the crown on the muzzle looks like? if that useless brake is removable or not?? If so some accuracy could be attainable by simply redoing the crown and adding a good functional air stripper !!plz lmk what your thoughts are on this !!

[@katrinasoledad8463]

Does the H&N Sniper Magnum fit snug in the rail type magazine of the Sig? The JSB RS 13 gr and Diobolo 15 gr were loose and would pop out at times.

[@mrmactknife]

I've been been hyped for this gun for a long time, but now thanks to your very informative testing you've shown me that it is in fact garbage. Thankyou so much for saving me from spending £500 on this piece of junk :).

[@johnpierce3347]

what should i buy instead

[@mrmactknife]

@@johnpierce3347 A Weihrauch HW100. Best airgun on the market.

[@mattteeple2050]

I just bought one of these. I hope it don't have any problems. This is my first pcp gun.... Can I fill the tank if it's attached to the gun? Or will that mess the seals up?

[@joshturner9766]

@josh langley did you get a mcx josh? im lookin into it

[@mikeenglish7063]

My bsa r10 loves those sniper magnums...... if you can find them

[@tangotango256]

yer killing me !!! zero the assembly !!!! please !!!!(it's shooting low right fyi)

[@jusjus8505]

Does yours have some play in the stock/tank?

[@gloknor]

Yes my gun is sloppy as hell in the shoulder stock from fitting in gun having play I also have a crack in forestock at bottom by 2 allen screws and a wiggly barrel .

[@steveboone5480]

Only on no pressure,.. Once you pump it up its solid but I'm having trouble sighting it in but overall a fun gun..

[@caseG80]

I sent my gun in for repair was sloppy as shit at tank came back tight but now there’s a slight shake in barrel nothing like what the tank had thou

[@dironizareyes596]

best advice, must clean barrel after every 100 shots put bout 7 q-tips in barrel make absolutely sure no pellets in mag and while the mag is out temporarily push down the qtips until they reach the beginning of the barrel. Look inside gun make sure the qtips dont enter the nozzle. from inside the mag holder push the qtip with your finger (safety on) or bottle removed and push back the qtip inside the the barrel flush so that the mag can engaged when you put it back it. put the empty mag in and shoot twice in a safe directions and blow out the qtips. Next tighten the barrel screw on the tip of the barrel by removing the fake flash supressor use 11 mm open wrench tighten nicely but dont over tighten (caution first) make sure gun is empty first so remove mag when doing this part. sometimes this barrel screw gets loose or comes loose so tighten nicely which will compress the plastic holder that holds the barrel.this will make the barrel stiffer. replace reg on bottle to 1500 psi and remove spring inside black funnel tube to a paintball spring. After that you should get at least 17-18 fpe .nice power and decent accuracy Good luck get saved by accepting Jesus Christ repent and get Baptized before its too late. Seating the pellets will reduced annoying excess trigger pull and improve accuracy

[@inspiredTalent]

putting different weight pellets into a single belt is not an accurate test. your irons or optic zero is for a single weight at a certain range. I struggle to believe you are using hold point to account for the weight differentials. If you shoot a heavier pellet following a lighter one it will lower the POI (point of impact). I have a Virtus and it is not the most accurate however they are fun. try shooting empty shotgun shells at 10 yards it is epic fun :)

[@dougc.1773]

I sent my brand new Virtus back since it grouped about 6 inches at twenty yds, The bore was filthy right out of the box and had rust in it, after shooting around 60 JSB 18.13gr the trigger and loading mechanism jammed! Very disappointing Sig...............

[@Evan-is5lc]

Mine failed me shortly after this video. I pulled it open to try and figure out the problem -- very bad idea.

[@heithwatkins]

I really believe I can put pellets in a slingshot and do this well at 12 yards!......SIG would definitely be getting a phone call from me.

[@sdralan4077]

Would you sell......

@@foam27 , Diabolo (dee-ab-e-loh) is a shape. Diablo is a mis spelling.
