The FX Panthera leapt airgun innovation forward with its patented over the barrel plenum and high-power / short-impulse valve design. Though the original Panthera is a purpose-built competition slug rifle, shooters have demanded to use this exciting new airgun tech in different ways as well.Â

It uses a shortened FX Smooth Twist X Superior barrel (300 mm barrel in .177 & .22 cal / 380 mm in .25 cal / 395 mm in .30 cal). The two smaller calibers use the 62 cc Macro Plenum while the .25 & .30 cal barrels utilising a new 120 cc Macro XL Plenum.Â
The Hunter Compact comes with a 300cc carbon fiber bottle located in the front of the rifle to give great balance when shooting the rifle off-hand.
