It digest everything 2 3/4 bird shot to 3 1/2 turkey loads.
You do not need the SBE II crio barrel.

I’ve come to know that the early AW had a notorious clipping issues. I know first hand from several owners whom had AW’s and had either PAG, Dave or AZ perform some surgery to correct the clearances. Dave’s first shroud we tried on the Wolf clipped also, so we shortened it and did the LCD. It came out great and…Read more

Great choice in rifles. I really like the Tikka’s. Right off the shelf they shoot awesome and action is real smooth. Just do not use the stock scope rings. Nine had a tendency of walking around, I fixed it with a set of Leopold rings , but your set-up is way better!

I have a Monsoon and Typhoon T12 in 22 cal. Love both guns.
To keep the Monsoon trouble free never shoot it on low air! Buy the 45 cc tune extension and fill to 3k PSI. Shoot only 3 clips through it and refill.

Thanks for the testing and preliminary info.
Sorry about the delayed response, just got back into town from a long vacation..
The following link has all the info in the 20’s. I have 3 left if anyone is intrested – PM me.

Thanks – I like the tune-ability at lower hammer weight, but can not get the valve to open at 3K psi -It likes 2800 psi. I also like the reduced hammer recoil and reduced lock time.
Are guys running the setup I have and just filling to 2800 psi? That’s cool I get more fills off the scuba tank.

Thanks for the reply. One more question – I want to make this as efficient on air as possible, so should I be using the new condor weight? I guess I have to see if the talon hammer alone opens the valve at 3000 PSI. What are you TSS guys recommending?

Just reassembled a TSS valve last night. The spring retainer was already ported and polished. I tried to use a condor high flow spring retainer but the ID was too large for the talon spring I was using and I had nothing to fit it.
Well here’s the question: how many turns should one put on the spring retainer to preload the spring correctly?…Read more

I have a 105 cubic foot carbon fiber dive tank. These things go for 320 at the del mare dive shop here in town. I get the thing filled to 4250-4300 psi at the local Sports Chalet for 5 bucks. I do not know the exact # of fill I get off the tank buts it’s ~25 – 30. My fill hose is long – 3 ft so I waste air there.
I hope this helps.

Thanks – I just put in the 110 gm hammer on last night. I’ll test the setup on the weekend as I need a fresh fill on my scuba tank. It’s easier to take off brass then add weight :).
I also got my 20 cal TSS shooting well last night. That will be another post

I have a new high flow AF valve and before I start setting the top hat I need some input. The set up is a 24″ 22 barrel. I have a Talon Tunes 110 gr hammer and an AF stock hammer+weight. I can turn down the 110 gr hammer to any desired weight. I worry about using a too heavy hammer.

Lemark did the work – top notch. I switch back and forth from a modified talon to the new condor valve. The Talon valve is more conservative on air and likes Crossman 14.3 gr pellets. The condor valve shoots YunJins at 980 fps (detuned) but the uses more air then I think it should. I drop ~5-8 fps…Read more
