I noticed last night when I put the tri rail on my condor that the rails are heading ever so slighly to the left of the barrel. Then noticed the same thing without the tri rail useing a one peice mount. Remember reading here something on the subject but can’t now find it. This will be a…Read more

I think many dealers will let you get the ss tank instead of the condor high flow tank,get the condor, nicer scope rail and has the longer fram. It will shoot darn hard and with a cheap fram extender will be reasonbly quiet,(but not very quiet like some custom shrouds)get lots of…Read more

Took velocity reading about after 6 shoots, very consitent. I think I remember the high flow tank has a larger hole than mine, must be a ss tank, right

Seems fast, accuracy very good. Do I have a high flow tank? With the micro- meter tank its going 750 fps with jsb 10.2 grain. Power wheel on 6,on 4 the velocity droops to 1065.

Only the 50 yard groups were shot without a rest. I’ve shot 75 shots now and can still shot more! Can’t wait till I get the micrometer tank back from AF, bet it shoots 125 hard shots.

Makes alot of sense in light of my little experiment.

But I still would like to get rid of at least some of what seems like a considerable amount of play, maybe 3mm in my gun.

With tophat somehow properly shimed, tophat could be screwed out to meet the bolt face and therefore no bolt play. ??

But what about a longer tophat to take up the play and still adjust to a small enough tophat gap? Anybody got one? Would it work?

Maybe thats the problem,bolt not tight againts the tophat? But that seems a bad design that the bolt can be turned to left or right in the notch and still not be seated properly,you have to both put into notch and snug againts the tophat??
