the rifling will have to match the bullet length, for good accuracy, hence a rifle built for the 22 short or cb caps, a gallery rifle. cant quote rifle twist right now.

an air rifle like the air force condor will out shoot the short 22, by unbelievable amont.

and like was already mentioned, try an oring behind the top hat and see if you can get away with shooting the 177 with the high flow set up.

Haven’t heard of anyone replacing internals of the talon valve like that . With Condor parts

You do know you can just buy the valve right. It’s like 120 , from airforce .

You can catch a used condor bottle for what a new valve cost some times.
