Do the guns recoil like the older Phoenix models? Also, does anyone know the range? Thank you.

The guns do not recoil like the older models and do not vibrate when getting hit. I checked the range with my son using a measuring wheel and it was approx 280 feet.

I don't believe there was significant recoil reduction compared to the slant brake. What it achieved was better control over muzzle climb with rapid fire.

I've had mine on a Palmetto State Armoty 5.56 and it's been excellent, no adjustments still holding zero. I use it in an indoor range at it's lowest setting without problems.

Works the best out of ALL ( 6 ) that I have tried ,GAS PISTON , or PCP , are the best . PCP no recoil but $$$$$ !

It will take the recoil but it's a junk sight that I don't recommend. Hard to initially zero, but it holds the zero well. Buy a better sight-you'll be happier..

I found the gun to be very accurate at about 23'. However the fixed sights were terrible. In my case, it caused the gun to shoot &gt;6" low at the 23'.I added a red dot sight, and quarter size groups are now typical through 2 1/2 clips (~40 shots). I am shooting RWS Superdomes (preferred) and RWS Diablo Basic.

My G29 with a crimson trace has no issues and the laser is on the side. A g29 has a wide slide. If I remember I'll look more closely when I get home and let you know more.

I believe the recoil system in the PX4 is from the 8000/Cougar series guns, so probably not. Could be wrong, as some of the components in the PX4 are interchangeable with the 92, but you should check with the mfg to be sure. There are recoil reducers specific to the Storm - Zahl, DPM, Fire Dragon, etc. - though likely more expensive than this one (though you get what you pay for in my opinion, I replaced the Buffer Tech unit in my 92FS with a Fire Dragon and saw much better results).

The gun I purchased did not work with any accuracy so I can not comment on your question. Sorry I can not help!

It really depends on your gun, it's power settings, and what you want it to do. As a long range(65m -100m) high power small game round they perform well. Keep in mind, they need to travel 1040-1120 (just under subsonic) 40-45lbs or 1250-1400fps to be sub 2moa accurate ... And there is no fragmentation ... Meaning they are meant to pass through thick muscle retaining max energy. In short they fit a very specific need and they are always in my ammo bag... But unless my guns are presighted and the power plant is setup for the pellet (adjustable piston or pcp) I don't shoot them. If they are worth $0.08 each is up to the shooter.

I've had the same accuracy with both. They don't interfere with the shot. Muzzle blast is ok for the shooter but not for people to the side.

I have a PSE stinger which produces a little over 300 fps and it does fine for me. I realize that isn't super fast but even breaching 300 fps the arrows only get about 8" into the target. The middle got a little soft after shooting some broad heads through it before last hunting season. It still stops arrows in the dead center though. They just stick out the back a little. I don't recommend this target for broad heads at all. Mine took about 500 field tips with absolutely no signs of wear before I shot it with broad heads. I'd actually get one of the bigger models like the 20" or 22". This one is a little small for shooting at the corner dots from longer distances.

I am using it with an AK-47 Pistol in 7.62x39. No idea on recoil limit - ask MFR

No noticeable recoil difference, I personally feel the monte carlo stock is more padded, which is a little more comfortable to shoot, the added weight gives you a little more control, recoil is the same bc u have same barrel and same round, felt recoil is about the same as well, it just doesnt beat ur shoulder up as much, 30 rds in will still be sore though

It took me awhile to get mine tuned in, double checked over and over tight , but once I got tuned in at 25', hitting close to my targeted point. Rest was recoil/trigger squeeze. Then you can adjust out for distance.

No issues with recoil on the .40. Still looking for the right holster, not sure there are any "inexpensive" holsters that will do the job. Right now the best solution I have seen is Sneaky Pete.

Recoil PULSE on 22 AIR RIFLE is actually SHARPER and harder on scopes than 300 Win Mag rifle cartridge,, BEEMAN did testing on this in the 1980's,, surprising.. If memory is correct, they claimed their scopes lasted longer than even 50bmg vs 22 air rifle. FYI, free info is worth what it cost. THAT SAID: IF THE LIGHT DOESN'T STAY ON OR OFF LIKE IT SHOULD,, SEND IT BACK
