Q:

Dyotat100’s Condor Valve

Ive been watching the progress on this for a while and when I saw the one he did for Moneyshot I knew that it was time to get one.

Im doing some mods to my Condor and it was in pcs when i got the valve, so I could’nt shot It for over a week! That made me very sad 😥 , but Im slamming some lead now 😈

The valve performs even better than I hoped. All my efforts in valve moding couldnt even get me close to 900fps with 7 ring slugs. This valve put me way past that 😀

Here are my 1st two shot strings with 70grain 7rings and some pics of the valve and 3 in one tool that comes with it. He also sent shims of different thicknesses to change the plunge depth.

1. 954.2
2. 946.5
3. 940.4
4. 905.5
5. 895.3
6. 912.8
7. 870.3
begin fill 3400
end fill 2600

1. 898.9
2. 907.8
3. 897.0
4. 892.2
5. 886.0
6. 862.7
7. 858.4
begin fill 3200
end fill 2500

Hmmmmm….that’s some food for thought. are you running a heavier spring and hammer too? the only thing that’s got me scratchin my head is that youre filling your tank to 3200psi…i wouldnt want to push this theoretical set up of mine past 2800psi output from the start. hmmmmm…..still- fantastic numbers!

are you using a standard AF tank to get those numbers?

Yes its a standard AF tank. A larger tank and a reg would likely give a nice shot string in the low 900s.

I just sent my valve body and retainer to Doug to make one for my 25 LBT.

It will be intersting to see how fast the 56 grainers fly.

I will probably fill to 3400PSI, but I will tether to see where the sweet spot is by shooting a 3400 PSI filled tank down to 2800 or so.

I expect it to shoot pretty flat to around 250 yards and then start climbing. 😛

are you using a standard AF tank to get those numbers? Hmmm…im wondering what the valve would do w/just a 2800psi output? im going to tether a 68 cu in 4500psi tank, w/a reg that’s putting out 2800psi….Hmmmmmm…. 😈

Fantastic numbers 😯 😎

Thanks, I’m glad you like it. The spacers are just colored with sharpies.

why did he give YOU the cool colored spacers? 👿
