My advice would be, to get a talon ss AND a 24″ .22 barrel.
(or a .22 Condor and a talon tank πŸ™‚ )

That IMHO is the BEST configuration you can have with an AF rifle.
Consistent, 40FPE of power, very accurate, and not as noisy as the condor.

My tophat is in fact pretty close to the valve face, maybe this is the problem?
If it is, then i have another problem πŸ™„ if i open my tophat to avoid this, then my shot count will decrease.
i dunno what to do πŸ™

Yes, the velocity/spin issue makes sense, but ΒΏcan it be so dramatic (almost 2″ @ 45yrds), for a speed variaton of less than 50fps? Total ES thru all the charge is about 46fps.
I tought i would see that with speed variations of say 100 – 200fps. ΒΏbut for only 46fps?

Whats keeping that pump from burning up? or do you have to turn off the compresor every 30 strokes of the pump (and…Read more

I would reduce fill preasure to say 2700, and start with a much smaller gap on the top hat, and increase that gap till i get the velocity i want, or till velocity doesnt increase any more.
Thats sort of what i did with mine, and i love the results, filled at only 2650psi, i get 30 shots at 40FPE avg.…Read more

You would have a cheap (under 150 for everytning) little carabine, silent, and with more that enough power for the…Read more
