There is a thread where Tony asked for folks input about the next version of the Taipan. I had suggested that they make a rifle/carbine version. I’d buy one in heart beat. Would also like 60+fpe too.

Set it up using the Long version of the Veteran, have the grip right under the cock lever and of course the rail right on the receiver/action

Got several tins of those but only one of each king, king heavy, king heavy II. The harder alloy BD penetrates a little better for bigger critters. When I get the chance I’ll compare all of them.

Goes to show how tight the tolerances are on the machining, it really is top notch. Wanted to play with the trigger, but in reality it is fine out the box. I not gonna even…Read more

That is a great looking setup!!! Would like to hear how it shoots those same pellets @ 920fps. Even faster if one had the time.

Never tried 920 fps the gun/reg came set to 146 bar and it’s max with the CZ barrel using 16g is 865fps.
18 g is 825 fps ……

If I need 920 with 16 or 18g I’d reach for my Cricket or Edgun…Read more

I wouldn’t mind having a .177 but really do like the .22. Planning on maybe using the .22 mutant short for Hunter Field Target, just need to figure out a scope.

I think that is one reason why it is quieter.
