PCP Air Rifle FX Panthera MKII Hunter

A Refined Precision Platform.. Presenting the FX Panthera MKII.

The Panthera MKII builds on the strengths of the original Panthera line, introducing a series of structural and mechanical upgrades that sharpen its consistency, ergonomics, and long‑range capability.

Heritage 

The original FX Panthera quickly became a landmark in modern airgun design.

Its ergonomics, and design priorities were undeniably competition‑driven, and it broke away from traditional hunting‑centric platforms and introduced a purpose‑built chassis system with a long Arca forend and a more forward‑mounted 300 cc carbon fiber bottle that balanced the rifle beautifully.

Its modularity, tuning freedom, and STX barrel technology set new expectations for what a competition air rifle could be.

The Panthera didn’t just enter the PRS‑style airgun scene, it helped define it, pushing other manufacturers to rethink performance, ergonomics, and adaptability in high‑end air rifles.

What's new:

The Panthera MKII brings several key upgrades.

In the standard Panthera MKII, a reinforced aluminum forend boosts rigidity, adds a full Arca rail, M‑LOK slots, internal weight channels, and an integrated 30 MOA Picatinny rail.

The new Quick Set Trigger offers three selectable profiles for PRS, hunting, and benchrest.

Air regulation is handled by the AMP MKII regulator with dual gauges for precise tuning.

A 163 cc plenum now surrounds the barrel, paired with an enlarged breech for longer slugs and a high‑flow, short‑impulse one‑piece valve.

Rear airflow routing is raised for better cheek weld.

The Quick Tune System provides macro and micro hammer adjustments, while the Superior STX barrel system continues with interchangeable liners and smooth, externally pressed rifling.

The scaled down FX Panthera MKII Hunter

Taking the raw precision of the Panthera MKII platform and reshaping it into a shorter, faster, more maneuverable hunting tool.

While the standard Panthera MKII is built around long‑range stability, competition ergonomics, and maximum air capacity, the Hunter Compact trims the overall length, reduces weight, and shifts the balance point forward for quicker target acquisition in dense terrain.

It keeps the Panthera’s refined action, smooth sidelever, and tuning flexibility, but packages them into a rifle that’s easier to shoulder, easier to carry, and purpose‑built for real‑world hunting where mobility matters more than benchrest rigidity.

The main differences are the repositioning of the air bottle, extra Picatinny slots instead of M-Lok, overall shorter length and shorter barrel making it a more compact platform, and reduction of weight, shot capacity, and max energy.

Adaptability at the Core

The Panthera MKII was built with competitive shooters in mind, and its design reflects that philosophy: every major system is engineered to be shaped, tuned, and refined to match the shooter’s intent.

Its upgraded Panthera Block, enlarged plenum, and AMP MKII regulator work together to create a platform that responds predictably to tuning changes. With the macro and micro hammer adjustments, dialing in a setup for different slug weights, distances, or match conditions becomes a deliberate, repeatable process.

A Platform That Conforms to You

The reinforced aluminum forend brings new stiffness to the chassis, reducing flex and helping the rifle maintain perfect tracking under load. Integrated mounting options, give shooters the freedom to configure the rifle for barricades, tripods, bipods, or heavy optics without compromise.

Trigger Profiles for Every Discipline

The Quick Set Trigger adds another layer of adaptability. Three selectable modes let shooters shift instantly between PRS‑style responsiveness, hunting practicality, or the controlled precision needed for benchrest. No tools, no disassembly - just a quick adjustment, and the rifle changes character.

Ready for Modern Ammunition

With its enlarged breech and slug‑friendly geometry, the Panthera MKII accepts projectiles up to 13 mm in length. This gives shooters the freedom to experiment with modern slug designs and tailor performance to their caliber and barrel choice.

FX Panthera MKII: The Evolution Continues.

Functional design:

The FX Panthera MKII is shaped around the idea of delivering unwavering stability and precision, especially for shooters who demand predictable behaviour across long‑range and competition environments. Every update in the MKII platform reinforces rigidity, tuning control, and ergonomic refinement.

At the heart of the rifle is FX’s enhanced Panthera Block and high‑flow valve system, working together with the AMP MKII regulator and enlarged plenum to maintain consistent pressure delivery, even when pushing heavy slugs at elevated power levels. This synergy ensures the rifle stays steady shot after shot.

The Quick Set Trigger adds another layer of adaptability. With three selectable profiles tailored for PRS, hunting, and benchrest, it gives shooters instant control over trigger feel without disassembling anything. Each mode is designed to offer a clean, predictable break suited to its discipline.

For smooth cycling, the side‑lever action remains a key component of the Panthera lineage. Its placement and mechanical refinement allow rapid follow‑up shots while keeping the rifle anchored in position, reducing shooter movement and maintaining sight alignment.

Highlights:

The FX Panthera MKII is built for precision, stability, and tuning freedom. Every upgrade strengthens its role as a competition-ready platform, delivering consistent performance with modern slug ammunition. Here’s a closer look at its defining features.

Aluminium Forend

A reinforced aluminium forend increases rigidity and reduces flex under load. It includes a full-length Arca-Swiss rail for bipods or tripods, M-LOK slots on the sides, and internal channels for optional balancing weights. A fully integrated 30 MOA Picatinny rail ensures reliable zero retention with long-range optics.

Quick Set Trigger (QST)

The QST system provides three selectable trigger profiles suited for PRS, hunting, or benchrest. Adjustments can be made instantly without removing the trigger guard, allowing fast adaptation to different shooting styles.

Regulator

The single AMP MKII regulator, paired with its dedicated gauge, allows precise control of the pressure coming from the 250-bar, 300 cc bottle. This ensures stable plenum pressure and consistent shot output across a wide range of ammunition.

Panthera Plenum

A large 163 cc plenum surrounds the barrel, keeping a high volume of regulated air ready for each shot. This design is ideal for high-power slug setups where airflow stability is critical.

Air Capacity

The high-capacity carbon fiber bottle supports extended shooting sessions, reducing the need for frequent refills during training or competition.

Panthera Block

The enlarged breech accepts slugs up to 13 mm, reinforcing the rifle's slug-focused design. The high-flow, short impulse  one-piece valve delivers fast, efficient airflow for maximum consistency.

Quick Tune System

Macro and micro hammer-spring adjustments make tuning intuitive. The numbered macro wheel allows rapid changes, while the micro adjuster provides fine, repeatable control for precision tuning.

Superior STX

The Superior STX barrel system uses an interchangeable STX liner with externally pressed rifling, ensuring a smooth bore and excellent projectile sealing for top-tier accuracy.
