First I wanted to see if the TTTA would affect power of the Texan so I shot the 400 grain and got 755.3 fps. 507 fpe on a 3000 psi fill the next 2 shots were 745.8, 740.2. Then I went to Alabama to test it on a couple hogs to see what the 350 grain ballistic tip would do at 800.2 fps. Here’s the…Read more

The setup is great and fits like a glove can’t wait to test it to see what it does so stay tuned.

I got an idea on making it quieter with the 12″ barrel I’ll try tommorow and will post it if it works like I want it to. Mine shot lights out with the 12″ barrel out 75yds. It would nail a Copenhagen can all day at 88yds lazered with rangefinder.

I put the 18″ barrel in mine and I have to dial it down to 0/0 to get the JSBs slow enough for accuracy. I got the stock from RAP4.com I got the one with the 17ci bottle but JDS airman has a22ci bottle.

They take squirrels out to 100 yards haven’t tried to shoot them any further. In my condor they shoot 4 clicks right or 1 inch right from my 50 yard zero.

They shoot pretty good but at 32 bucks a box i would only hunt with them. They hit hard and are well built. I gave mine to Jim Gaska to shoot out of his maurader. They shoot better at long range than short range.

The bottle is just like the stock bottle just bigger. It cost less than the condor bottle. No adapter is needed I put the etac on it to know what pressure was in the bottle. Not sure how much the bottle was because I bought the brass breech too but it was a lot less than the stock condor bottle.

This helps form it on the contours of the bottle and the gun. It comes ready to apply no glue needed just peel off the backing which is some strong stuff also. The wrap is thin enough to work with easily.

It is not easy but not real hard I learned a heat gun is the trick. It also comes off with out damaging your finish on your rifle and protects it from the elements.
