FX Impact .22 vs FX Impact .30 Hunting Squirrels
Vložit
- čas přidán 17. 09. 2021
- This video is about my FX Impact in both .22 and .30 calibers taking ground squirrels with precision head shots. The .22 is running 32.8gr XLHP slugs at an average speed of 1031 FPS. The .30 cal is running 54.5gr HP slugs at 940 FPS.
Let me be clear, I only have one Impact but I have three barrel kits for it. It started life as a .357. I now go back and forth between .22 and .30 calibers. I initially started with an Athlon Argos BTR 6-24x50 FFP. I then went to an Element Helix 6-24x50 FFP, which is a great scope with an amazing reticle. I recently switched to the Blackhound due to it's compatibility with the GoPro scope cam system.

Great content! Your channel has a great future, I enjoy the commentary also. Keep it up. Love that Blackhound BTW, I have one and love it.
The clarity that Blackhound is far superior than that of the element. Wow, unbelievable . Thanks great video
Man, I miss this channel!!!!! Gonna hit that bell so I dont miss future notifications. Great work and shooting as always.
Great to see a video from you my friend, its been a while, as always first class footage and excellent shooting great watch Cheers
Great video, keep up the good work. I really enjoy your videos.
Great shots as always. I enjoyed your video.
Your videos are making it easier for me to make the decision to buy the FX Impact. Thanks!
That’s some damn fine shooting in both calibers. That Blackhound scope is really clear🎯
That damn bkackhound is so much clearer than the element. Thanks hunter one, great video as usual
Yo hunter one...I think the 22 is hitting harder than the 30 cal...that 60 yard shot (2:30) hit him so hard the cows started singing..lol🤣
Lol. Thanks for watching.
The sheer number of targets is unreal. Excellent shooting.
Freaking awesome footage and shooting T! Been a minute for me. Hope to get out there soon.
Oh!! That was savage!
Nice presentation and equally dope shootification T.
I'm eating squirrel pie and wearing my "Lights Out" t-shirt.
Awesome as shooting as always, king 🤴🏿 king of slug shooting....I had the chance to look through a black hound optic and clear as hell...gotta get 1 ....
Great job, thanks for the upload. Support from Scotland.
Just might be the best foot edge on you tube in a natural setting and no baiting. So good so fresh so clean so awesome. Send it bro 🏁🇺🇸
Great video, that black has great clarity over the element, who would have known.
Hard for me to tell which one was hitting harder, but I sure like the reticle and clarity on that Black Hound scope. SG recommended that I watch this video to see that scope in action. It was well worth the time. Thanks for the comparison between it and the Element. I think I'll have to take advantage of his 5% off and free shipping.
Awesome shoots buddy
That dot in the middle is lethal. At 80 yards you don't have to compensate for anything, just place that dot on target and shoot.
And I thought The BSA Riffle with HAWKE scope was good.
This is even better.

Great video and shooting. I love my blackhound scope better than any other I have. I like the thicker reticle for my old tired eyes lol
Brilliant video and shooting
Glad you are back. Missed you.
Awesome video man!!!! Wow you have them impacts tuned man !!! They both sound like a freight train hitting some thing!!! Wow man wow!!!!
Thank you Doug but it’s only 1 Impact. I have .22, .30, and .357 barrel kits.
That was definitely a headspletting video. Thanks Stay Safe ✌️.
I’m glad I’m not a squirrel in your neighborhood! Great shooting! You’ve got you’re equipment dialed in
re your question: the .22 has a fpe of 77.40. then the .30 has an fpe of 110.34 . down range it is normal for the heavier slug to retain more fpe than the lighter slug. there in is the answer. My opinion is that the 22 is more than enough for the task in hand. nice video thanks, i enjoyed it.
Great video and great shooting!👍🏻🇺🇸
Thanks for watching.
Love the well placed shots. Wish I was the one pulling the trigger.
Enjoyed it Mr One ! 👍
sure like the reticle and clarity on that Black Hound scope .
I agree with Smitty B, the 22 seems to be better🏴👍
Nice shooting -
I got my Blackhound from southern gunner as well.
Whats really amazing, is the slug is still traveling like it never made impact!
Regards to the clean up crew real professionals 👍🏻 love your time taken and accuracy very impressive 🫡
Thank you for watching.
Some awesome footage, 👌
Thanks for watching.
Love my Blackhound.
Waiting for a different reticle before I get another one.
Awesome shooting!
As to which caliber hits harder: Although I could detect no difference in concussion on impact in the video, experience tells me there is a vast difference in power when comparing ~75 fpe and >110 fpe. In any event, I'd say both those tunes were overkill based on the pass-throughs I saw.
I always enjoy your videos. Keep up the great work.
P.S. I will indeed look into obtaining a Blackhound scope for use on my 6.5 Creedmoor (for White-tail deer -- season starts here in mid-November).
I got 77/FPE on the .22 and 107/FPE on the .30 and as far as overkill, slugs shoot best (especially at range) at higher speeds for stabilizing the projectile. At least it’s humane dispatching which is never a bad thing. Better too much than not enough IMHO as long as the backdrop is safe
Good shooting scopes are nice especially the hound
Awesome Shooting H1 and clear video as stated. I like the .22
Laser
Thanks Ced. Much appreciated.
Another inspiring airgun video!
Dam son! That's some good accuracy
The slomo really shows how explosive those shots are.👍👍
Excellent video! .30 carries more energy but the extra speed of the .22 gives better expansion and damage I guess..
Man the scope you are using on the dirty .30 is simply put Great the glass on the .22 has to bold of lines for me. Excellent shooting as always
Dirty 30 all day. Bro Great shooting!!! Both guns are tuned on point !!!! great video super clear. My Blackhound is the best and clear scope that I have great job bro!!!
It's only one gun. He's switching out the barrels making you think he has 2 impacts.
Great shooting
Thank you for watching.
Nice shooting...
What's a good tune for my fx m3 700mm heavy liner .30cal nsa54.5gr?
Thanks!
dam nice shooting
Awesome video man wow both gun are tuned perfect 👌 I think they are both hitting very hard but I think the 30 cal is hitting harder then the 22 i really enjoy watching your video man cus I know you are gonna show some awesome footage looks awesome buddy thanks for sharing bsafe ...
Only one gun, swapping barrels, don't know why he didn't specify that. Instead of making us think he has 2 impacts.
What is your problem? Trying my best not to block you.
@@HunterOne_Productions oh wow its obviously you have two guns bro that would be a lot of stuff to change scopes tunes that dude doesn't own or know what goes into these high powered air guns to get them shooting that well block him lol
@Chris Figueroa I only have one Impact that started life as a .357. I also have .22 and .30 cal barrel kits for it. It is a lot of work going back and forth with the calibers which is why I am contemplating purchasing another Impact. The problem is the wife. Already have 25 other PCPs, I would probably get kicked out of the house :)
Thanks for watching.
@@HunterOne_Productions oh ok kool bro I didn't know that is a lot of work 😳 but you are doing a good job with your videos yes I understand the wife thing I bought a fx impact m3 22 cal 700mm its shooting 34 gr varmint knockers at 1000fps plus its a laser beam compared to my mk2 pp 25 cal 700mm but both guns are very accurate I have the mk2 shooting 36.2 nsa at 995 to 1000fps av I only have 4 p p air guns and I think I'm done for awhile I taipan vet long 25 cal and nova Vista 22 cal all guns are very accurate I love this hobby thanks again keep on keeping on
Amaziing
Hermoso video
Dirty 30 all day u gave them whiplash. Bro great shooting mate 👌
Great video Both projectiles are hitting very hard I think the 22 caliber is hitting harder or it's harder or going through faster than the 30 caliber
wwwoooww amazing skill hunting sir..
Good shooting. That second dove came back to find out what happened to his buddy. He succeeded.
Nice shooting. I always appreciate your skills and marksmanship. Interesting difference between the Blackhound and Element. To be fair it would be nice to see apples to apples ie: 44mm to 44mm.
Awesome shooting! What range do you zero your scopes at? I noticed hold under at closer ranges.
I zero at 50 yards. Thanks for watching.
Both are laser accurate but i will still go to 30 cal… great video!!!
Hard to go wrong with either. Thanks for watching.
are you running the 500mm barrel or 600 mm? .30 has some nasty knockdown power. was waiting for you to take the buzzards down at the end as well. Awesome Vid...Thanks
I’m running a 700mm Superior Heavy Slug Liner.
Great shooting. I bought a Blackhound from sg, and I will never own another brand. It is do much more clearer than my Element-Optics as you stated
Nice video
Thanks
Great precision shooting as always.
Snapping necks....
as you always do lol and take care my brother.
Thanks for watching Frank.
Question how many impacts you are rocking with now?
@@frankdaughery970 1 Impact, 3 barrel kits.
@@HunterOne_Productions Ok. I thought you might have added another one to the arsenal.
@@frankdaughery970 I’m considering it.
Blackhound Genesis 6-24 is amazing. I have one on each of my .308 and going on all my guns when I have enough $..😊
Great scopes.
Surgical sharp shooting!
Do you tune your own guns? Or do you have a connect? I want to get the most out of the aea 30 cal carbine.
Tune my own.
I like your style bro ...
Which caliber is more accurate in windy weather?
I’ve found that the .22 is better in the wind. Thanks for watching.
Do you have two separate impacts or the same gun converted to different calibers?
Same gun, different calibers.
He's down he's done lights out DRT awesome video Hunter one the 22 looks like it hits harder than the dirty 30 what ft lbs of energy are the squirrels being hit with? Big up from London England
77 ft/lbs in .22 and 110 ft/lbs in .30. Thanks for watching!
Wow that's good ft lb energy from both calibers impressive keep making good videos /content I'll keep watching
Can you please give me your thoughts about the FX impact M3 accuracy (0.30 VS 0.357) caliber. Not sure which one to pick, I like the 0.357 cal for it's power but I'm concerned about the accuracy, will 0.357 give me the same precision shots as 0.30 cal?
My Impact was originally a .357 and it’s deadly accurate. I chose to get the .357 as a base platform because of the power delivery. The best part as that you can still take that powerful platform to lower calibers if you chose with different barrel kits. Thanks for watching.
@@HunterOne_Productions Ditto on the caliber choice and modification!
I was so close to buying the Black Hound but that reticle is horrible. WAY WAY WAYYY too cluttered!! I opted for the Midas Tac, Athlon has possibly THE best reticle of any scope.
Gott DANNGGGG!! Which 1 hitting harder??? They both hitting harder 😆that black hound is amazing
Awesome, Awesome.awesome.. 🍻🍻
Both are putting the smack down on them
I think I prefer the extra velocity of the .22
Which scope is better the athlon or the helix ???? I was thinking about buying a Ares Etr,,,,,,,thank u in advance
Both are super clear when looking through them. The differences present themselves when you start videoing your shots. The Element Helix is more difficult to clean up in post processing but it’s a great scope as well.
I like the clarity of that scope it’s just the reticle seems a little too thick
I agree.
What a nice scope reticle in .22 gun?
All I can say is DAAAAAAAMN!! Both are hitting like a freight train💥 blackhound seems clearer, perhaps the thicker Reticle makes the GoPro focus better. Lol, I could hear myself running my mouth in the background on some shots🤡
Love the coaching. Thanks for watching.
What state and city are you hunted ground squirrels?
were have you find some many ground squirrels ?
It's a permission about 19 miles from my house, I see them going there, it's a Grey Honda suv, sometimes a Nissan truck that be our there my new and 1st airgun will be here next week and I'm going to start shooting there, owner says they need someone there more often. I'll let you know when I start and hopefully you can join me .
Damn brother….your Going through some serious air with both of these guns at that power level. Who many shots do you get from each gun per fill man? Seriously! I highly doubt you get 40-50 shots. Man…your throwing done some really high energies from a PCP👍😂🤷♂️😉 Excellent shooting by the way and great info on slugs and their down range lethality bud. Slug shooters need to be made aware of just how far they go and how much like a rim fire these modern PCP power levels can be. Their no joke. Play safe y’all! God bless y’all!
He doesn't have 2 impacts, it's the same gun , just swapping barrels, why he didn't say that instead of making you think he has 2 different impacts. Too many misleading airgunners out there, damn doesn't anyone keep it real anymore.
@@masongrey1321 I said the same thing, why is he being dishonest about having 2 impacts.
If you watch my videos, I clearly state that I have 1 impact with .22, .30, and .35 cal barrel kits. I also have about 25 other PCP air rifles. Don’t know what you’re insinuating but you’re way off base.
I’m not being dishonest. If you watch my videos you would know better than to post this stupid comment.
@@HunterOne_Productions I’m sorry for asking the question of shot count and thinking you had 2 different guns. Haven’t had your channel long and if it wasn’t for SG I wouldn’t even know about it. Sorry for the drama just wanted to know shot count. God bless
Awsome shooting. Quick question. I was helping out a friend clear out some ground squirrels in central CA. I had to use none lead pellets. I couldn't use slugs because of the California Condor protection law (stupid).
Are you shooting in CA? I know you're out west in Ventura County. Any guidance would be appreciated.
California state says no lead ammo, lot of guys think that doesn't pertain to airguns but it does, lead ammo is lead ammo the only difference in lead ammo from a airgun and lead ammo from a rifle is gun powder, since the gun powder is not what's killing the condor and the lead is then there's no difference. That's California statue. Written into law, but airgunners keep using lead ammo and think they are omitted from the law and they aren't. If they ever get caught they will face the mandatory 20 thousand dollar fine or 5 year imprisonment as a powder burner shooter, and the crazy part is , they are easy b to track down because the videos are here on CZcams. Once reported or they find out, they start the surveillance procedure and go in and check the guns, these guys are either brave, ignorant to the law, or they just don't care, either way its only a matter of time before they are caught. Ask Randall Montgomery who is serving a 2 year sentence because a condor was found dead in a area where only he shoots, and guess what he was shooting, an airgun, and guess what he said, I thought airguns were exempt, and he was told lead is lead, quoted from Mark fingers the guy that was with him when he was arrested.
Mason is 100 percent correct. Lead is lead. Let them keep breaking the law, they'll get caught sooner or later, and all these videos will be their downfall.
Why are you watching the videos then? We know the laws. Please research some more before you comment. Thank you.
@@HunterOne_Productions I just wanted to know how I could do the same. If there was some th ING I didn't know. I mean central CA is concidered Condor territory so I thought that was the case. What law allows you to use lead slugs?

1030 fps.. how many shots in .22 do you get at that rate?
I’m running a 700cc bottle. Never really counted but a little under 2, 28 round magazines.
I think the .22 is hitting hardest. It’s straight rocking their domes.
So the blackhound here. Is it the MOA or MIL?
The vk slugs are devastating try the 34 grain .25 at 1050 it just destroys stuff. The NSA is a great slug but not even close in terms of expansion
The .22 is giving the energy at that speed of 77 fp and the .30 110 fp the .30 caliber maintains more energy at long distances for the superior weight, I could not say which hits the strongest because in such small animals it does not deliver all the energy on the impact, because it passes through the animal and energy is wasted so it depends on the projectile, with the softer lead being the one that expands better and delivers more energy at the moment of impact.
Slugs equals POP!
@7:55 did i just see lil guys tooth go flying??!
Mantap memang FX impact
What would you recommend for hunting, what would you prefer? can you help me?
Depends on your hunting goals.
Which barrel should I choose for hunting, 30 caliber or 22 caliber? what are the advantages
how much for the rifle sir...? greetings from indonesian...
Dang it’s been a long time since a video
Nice shooting , I think the 30 Cal hits harder
