The FX Panthera is unlike any previous FX Airguns rifle. It is a dedicated
slug rifle, purpose-built with precision competition in mind, accelerating the FX
Airguns legacy and pushing the boundaries of airgun performance.
The Panthera includes technology displaying 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 utilizes 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 design (i.e. Dynamic Plenum) feeding the Panthera is revolutionary and the first of its kind.It is an over-the-barrel plenum which provides a
consistent regulated pressurized plenum around the barrel, adding increased
rigidity to the barrel as well as allowing multiple plenum lengths to be employed to
match the caliber and power of the rifle. Precise levels of pressure are maintained
by the single AMP MKII Regulator. Three sizes of will be utilized initially: a Micro
Plenum (sub 12ft/lb rifles), Macro Plenum (62cc) & Magnum XL Plenum (156cc)
The results of the Dynamic Breech & Plenum are extraordinary! Testing
has yielded constant 10 shot strings with standard deviations in the low 1.0–2.0
range and 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. .22LR precision shooters
will identify the ability to shoot the same BC slugs and weights they are used to,
but with the control and standard deviations that only FX Airguns can deliver.
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 (you can 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 Panthera’s 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 (the same as found on the FX Impact
M3), uses a 20MOA picatinny scope rail, comes standard with a zero-angle AR
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.
The FX Panthera will be offered in three configurations, the Panthera 700, Panthera 600 & Panthera 500 (corresponding to barrel
length). The Panthera 600 & 700 utilize the FX Superior Heavy STX barrel liner as standard as they have been purpose built for slug shooting.
The Panthera 500 uses the standard FX Superior STX barrel liner that shoots both pellets and light weight slugs. The rifle allows for the quick
change of barrel liners but changing calibers and affixing different barrel lengths to the Panthera can only be done by an authorized FX dealer.
Additional accessories will be offered to further customize the rifle including a bag rider, barrel weights, offset M-LOK weights, smaller profile
competition Mini-Mag, Picatinny accessory sections, and an optional tungsten hammer.
The new FX Panthera will forever change the precision rifle world. It feels and
shoots like a precision 22LR, enjoying straight back recoil, but with laser sharp precision
and accuracy only found with an FX Airgun!
