Condor 12" barrel accuracy
Any experts know the accuracy of a Condor .177 cal. with 12″ barrel?
When it is zeroed in at 30 yards, what is the accuracy at 50 yard range?
How about beyond 50 yard?

not air, powderburner, .223 rem. in a t/c contender single shot. point being though that short barrels are not a handicap to mechanical accuracy, just harder to hold still consistently. shoots a 50gr bullet 2800fps. Have taken rabbits with it at close to 300yd.
But its OK.. Were not laughing with you.. were laughing at you 😉
An Air Pistol? LOL !
Yeah, I was full-on ROFL. 😆

250yds?! From a pistol? I’m assuming you’re talking about an air-pistol? Hell, even a .44 Magum I’d be bloody amazed! And what’s the pellet killing when it gets there? 😆
Oh please explain why you think I’m joking……
12″ more of rifling, higher velocity, higher rate of spin, greater stability = greater accuracy.
Otherwise why not go hunting with a pistol?
I do hunt with a pistol, it has a 12″ bbl and will shoot MOA to 250yds if I do my part. YES, SHORT BARRELS CAN BE AS ACCURATE AS LONG ONES.

This pistol shoots .22 CP’s 1″ groups at 50yds with a 10″ barrel on CO2

The POI shifted and it used more air.
The POI never changed when I swapped my 24 ” .22 to my 18″ .177 barrel.
I haven’t used it much since unless I use my low powered HPA paintball tank with CO2 adapter.
No difference in accuracy between the 24″ and the 12″. I guess theoretically the 12″ has the potential to be more accurate because it leaves the barrel sooner so its subject to less movement from shooter after the trigger is pulled.. but I’m not good enough to notice that stuff.
You’re joking, right? 😕

I did not see a joke in there.

I have a Talon SS with a Condor tank, which is essentially a Condor with a 12″ barrel.

i have a 12 inch barrel on my condor but in .22 cal. i can hit things at 50 yards no problem. accuracy is also good idk about a .117
