I made small adjustment at a time to the trigger during the week and from factory 12 oz, down to 10 oz.
Sear adjuster = CW 1/4 turn
2nd stage Tension = CCW 1 1/2 turn
2nd stage Travel = CW 1 1/2 turn
Hammer sear = CCW 1 turn
~ Greg ….. ….. .. ….. … ….. how sweet it is !! 😛
Now this is what I call an adjustable trigger :8: :8: :8: :8: :8:

No burrs on the mags but it does have a sharp edges on the inside pellet chambers.
I removed the 2 O-rings and used a O-ring removal tool to round over all the rectangular O-ring cutout on the mags.
Sorry no pics …….
It did help tighten up the groups a bit and reduced the number of flyers to 0 or 1 per fill shooting session.
The O-rings that came with my Vet as follows:
2 – 23 x 3mm = Front/back/reg.
2 – 4.47 x 1.78mm = Fill probe
1 – 15 x 2mm = ?
1 – 6.07 x 1.78mm = Pellet probe = same size as Mutants piston reducer.

Using the 22 button with 2 patches on the Patchworm barrel cleaning system just got old for me.
I spun down the 30 cal button to .23″ diameter maximum (I wouldn’t go larger) and chamfered the end.
Using a dremel, 6 penny finish nail, a small tube and a sanding block.
Melted the end of the pull to shorten it’s length to fit into the breach without fully cocking.
Strung the cord with only 1 patch this time and pull the cocking lever back just a bit till it slips into the breech.
This makes for a much safer, quicker and easier cleaning session.

I waited till the wind died down to shot/test 26gr Polymags.. it hates the wind !
With the above tune at 880fps it shooting tight 1/2″ ctc at 50 yards but it dosen’t compared to the King 25g accuracy as we know but applicable.
Been getting a few 2″ fliers now and then, Polymags lot/batch or wrong speed …… IDK yet.
BC depending on wind I use or been getting.
With wind @ .029 < > .03 @ no wind.

You are correct as usual !
She is very fine, like the best wine ……. sweet and smooth …… my Vet …… I mean my wife is. :fishinghole:

Looking at this little wonder of a gun …… makes me smile .. :biggrinn:
For those who lost reference to the Factory setting measured at 12 oz pull, but IDK if all are the same .. will help you get closer back though. I’m adjusting trigger pull/settings as I shoot my Vet, intime it should end at 8-10 oz being a 25 cal.
Latest chorny string with JSB King 25g a tad high but in time the HS should play down a bit, in red are readings off of the guns gauge.
Measurement at 880fps is .032″ height of HST out of receiver with HST holes at 4:30 and 10:30 position.
Max velocity with JSB King 25g is 900fps achieved with HST about 3/4 turn in CW from 880fps.

Congrats Greg for this “wonderful swiss-watch PCP Bullpub”, probably very close to the state of the art perfection :8:
It’s like the perfect woman, beautiful inside and beautiful outside :rofl:
Enjoy!
Hahaha
My LW barrels like the polymags, Linstone also, CZ barrels will not so much,
But that’s just my guns,

How are bars and rubbers interrelated?
One simply places the rubber over one’s bar. But most you old guys ain’t got a bar anymore but rather a limp fish. Best you hope it’s still got some wiggle.

Hey Pippo, :biggrinn:
As you may know I’ve tuned my Edgun R3M 22 std trigger with a nylon bushing mod that makes it feel just as sweet as the Taipans.
It has the same 1/8″ first stage travel pull with a crisp consistent break.
