Does anyone have a picture of the micrometer valve? I am really wanting to try indoor shooting with my Talon come this winter?

Thanks, Rick

Hi Rick,
I’ve just posted it in your other thread “Making a Micro-meter valve from Condor valve?”

Sorry it took a while

I never took it apart. I believe it is just a very restricted setup. The tophat assembly looks like the standard tophat.

Hi,

I have been doing exactly the same for few years. Indoor winter 10m target practice and few matches.
The micrometer tank works really well for the purpose.

I shoot .22 and still get shot count in the 200s. Can stretch it to 300 if I don’t mind a little POI drop.
I consider it a very good deal. Would definitely recommended.

The alternative is a regulator. This will also allow you consistent and high number of shots.

I know that a few here use the Talon Tunes top hat with the maximum restriction fr some of these applications.
Maybe somebody will get you some numbers with that.

The micrometer valve was specifically designed for indoor applications, so it is a good choice if you mean to do that.

Oh, I use a 24″ barrel on that target rifle and it really does a great job with the micrometer tank.

Cheers
Chris

I’m hoping to get a micrometer tank too. Is the TalonP a micrometer tank?
