His web site is:

Home

You might ask him what would charge to do it. I bought the entire gun from him that way so I don’t know the barrel install would cost.

Good luck,

I was planning on using them for close range pest hunting, but found that the velocity varied from 710-830 fps when shooting just a few over the chrony. This accounts for the extreme verticle variation in POI I see even…Read more

Anyway, http://www.pacificpellets.com can do everything you are thinking of. Note that he is now offering a Marauder pistol with a tube-mounted 13ci HPA tank.

The Talon air tank is about 3 times the capacity of the Raider tank. The Raider gets about 22 shots in .22 at 21-22 FPE.

My Talon gets 65 shots at 20 FPE (the power level I prefer).

So, not really that…Read more

Handles and feels great. Don’t shoot CO2 much here in Colorado, but I just really like it. I would love to see someone selling Bullpup stocks for my TalonSS

I had a similiar goal for my Talon SS, which was to get more shots at a slightly lower velocity, but still enough for pest shooting. I ended up puting one rubber washer behind my tophat. It can be stretched over the tophat, and will not fall off. This resulted is 750 fps with 16 grain JSB Exacts for about 65 shots from a 200 bar fill.…Read more

The S200 is tunable for about 12 fpe to 20fpe and is supposed to be very quiet with a small shroud.

A TalonSS adjusted for the same power with a 24 inch barrel would get MANY more shots than it does with a 12 inch barrel.

I’m going to assume that you have a 12 inch barrel.
(In other words, an 18 inch Talon, not an 18 inch barrel)

I just did a bunch of re-reading on the yellow forum to refresh my memory, and here is what I was trying to say in less words. I’m just going to ramble a bit, so this might sound a little unorganized:

In other words:
1. Adjust the top hat to get the air efficiency/shot count versus velocity that you can live with
2. chart your velocity curve starting from a fresh fill with different initial fill…Read more
