FX Panthera 700

The FX Panthera 700 is a PCP air rifle that’s specially engineered for situations where accuracy is the difference between winning and losing. It gives you revolutionary technology that sets a new standard for performance from an airgun, plus the tuning ability and flexibility that makes FX a favorite of shooters everywhere.

This rifle combines the Dynamic Block and the Dynamic Plenum to give you a high power, short impulse valve in the block to provide efficient use of air, and a stiffer barrel because it’s surrounded by a constant pressure from the regulated plenum.

FX engineered this air rifle to give you shockingly low standard deviations and extreme spreads over a 10 shot string so you get predictable performance from every shot, and if you’re a competitor, you know how important that is. This rifle gives you the ability to use slugs with weights and BC that match the ones you use for .22LR shooting, but with even more consistency.

This model gives you excellent performance with slugs because it uses the FX Superior Heavy barrel liner. Plus, you get the peak performance possible from this platform with the 700mm barrel. And you don’t have to move the rifle to see the regulated plenum pressure or the bottle pressure with the dual angled manometers on the left side of the block.

The FX Panthera 700 gives you real ambidextrous features like a reversible sidelever and an adjustable reversible cheekpiece, and you’ll like the fact that you get the hold you want with the zero angle AR grip and fully adjustable buttstock. Plus, you can tune the rifle using the externally adjustable AMP MKII regulator, adjustable hammer spring power wheel, and two stage adjustable match trigger.

This rifle gives you ease of use with the rear Foster QD fill port and rear removable 300cc carbon fiber bottle. You’ll also get better accuracy at long ranges with the Picatinny scope rail with a 20 MOA cant, and you’ll find it easy to add competition accessories to the 14.5″ Arca-Swiss and M-LOK forend rail.

When developing the FX Panthera 700, the Swedish FX Airguns really has focussed on long range competition shooting with slugs. For this, an exceptionally powerful and accurate air rifle is needed and to deliver just that, FX has upped their game once again. Both technical and functional, this FX Panthera 700 really is purpose built. For instance, the FX Panthera 700 features a 17.75” Arca rail over the full length of the fore-end with M-LOK slots into which optional balancing weights can be attached. There’s also a barricade block for perfect repetitive positioning and an optional bag rider can be mounted. More about the design later, let’s first focus on the engineering of this FX Panthera 700.

Impressive engineering
This powerhouse is built for optimal airflow, meaning that air will flow as fast and efficient as possible as soon as you pull the trigger. For this, all parts are perfectly in sync with each other. Let us pick out the highlights for you:

• Regulator – the single AMP MKII regulator has its own pressure gauge and can be adjusted meticulously. It lets you lower the pressure coming from the 250 bar bottle (300 cc and sporting its own pressure gauge) to create the perfect pressure inside the plenum to match your chosen ammunition.
• Dynamic Plenum – inside the plenum, the already regulated air is at the ready for the next shot. The plenum is available in different capacities and the bigger the calibre and the heavier the projectile, the more capacity you’ll need inside the plenum. Available plenum sizes are: Micro (sub 12 ft./lb.), Macro (62 cc), Magnum (95 cc) and Magnum XL (156 cc). The FX Panthera 700 sports a Magnum XL plenum around the barrel. This means a matching barrel shroud should be used when changing the plenum. Of course, we’ve got these available separately.
• Dynamic Block – an extra-large breech is featured inside the Dynamic Block, allowing for slugs up to 13 mm in length. A smart move, as the FX Panthera 700 is specifically designed to use slugs. A newly developed High Power/Short Impulse one-piece valve ensures a large and extremely fast airflow.
