The FX Crown I have bought has a new power dial that reads 1,3,5,7 up to 23. That is not described in the manual that came with the rifle nor can I find reference to it anywhere on the web. The number 13 is circled, is that the recommended setting and does anyone have any idea what the other settings mean? Also, what scope mounts do you use? I have tried Hawke and Wulf all described as "high" but none allow the mag to install clear of the scope (MTC King Cobra). Also, on the last shot if I have the rifle pointed down the pellet falls part way out of the mag and jams the action. Is that just something to be aware of and manage? Also, something moves and rattles inside the action when the rifle is uncocked. Again, is this something to be aware of but does not mean an item is loose in the rifle?
Hi,
Nice rifle, I do like my Crowns.
OK, I think you have a new power wheel, which is like the new wheel on the Impact M3 - I have not seen a new Crown power wheel yet, I think it may be marked that way rather than the A,B,C D type. Simpler 1 - 23 - I am guessing they use the dot's in-between because it creates a space and maybe too jumbled if it was all numbers. So I think you have a new function that just has not made it into the manual yet. Nice. ?
Scope wise, the MTC King Cobra, has quite a bulbous section in the middle....have you tried mounting the scope so the front part of the tube is over the Mag, rather than the section in the middle where all the turrets join up. I know exactly what you mean and I have found on some scopes the joint in the middle can get in the way, so maybe a small experiment on placement is what I normally do.
Mag wise with the last pellet, I have never heard that one before. I do wonder if the magazine is a little loose on the spring, and not gripping the last pellet correctly.
Noise's from inside, the Wildcat has a floating hammer, so yes you hear that moving....I wish I could be 100% but have not seen a new Crown yet, so it maybe a floating hammer. I dont know on that one - remote diagnosis is never easy. ?
To be 100% sure, maybe ask the RFD that sold the rifle, they should know....or be able to answer questions for you.
Hope I helped in some way with some of it.

Hi G, many thanks for the quick reply. My RFD struggles to answer questions as he hasn't seen the new Mk11 himself. Have moved the scope back and forth and shimmed with some 35mm film. The mag touches the scope but indexes fine.
