It is very close on my Challenger at 800fps with the 8-32 Leapers scope at 1.8 inch height. But it is 8, 1/4 moa clicks off between 12 yards and 26 with my TalonSS .177 at 840fps with the Leapers 4-16 at 3.4 inches high. I think the way to tweak the program will be to cheat the value for the scope…Read more

Yeah. I’m using a CO2 adapter with a Ninja Paintball 13ci. hpa tank with the SHP Pro regulator shimmed up to 1,400 psi. A cheap and effective solution for $70 for the regulated tank. The new Altaros regulator for the AirForce tank should work well at $150 but adds length to the bottle.

You will never have to clean your barrel again. Just spray a folded paper towel and lay it on top of a couple layers of pellets in an old tin and rub it around for a few seconds. It seeps to a micro thin coating without filling up the skirts or changing the weight.

That is ridiculously over stabilized for a .25 airgun pellel. You are wasting a ton of energy and the pellet will fly nose up and spiral at the longer ranges. The Green Mountain .25 barrels are 15.5″ and Walther uses 17.7″. The new barrel that Bob Sterne developed for .30 pellets and Mac1 won the extreme bench rest with is 1:20″.

Someone said that parts for the valves are really cheap They built a whole high flow valve assembly from parts for $60 instead of the $100 that AirForce charges for the assembly. If the two large threaded sections are the same as the standard valve, the remaining high flow pieces may only be $30-40.

I believe all of the new style Talons that shipped with a .177 barrel came with the micrometer valve which will really hold back a .25 pellet. I’m probably going to go with a paintball HPA tank regulted to 1,600 psi? to shoot light .177 at 850-900 fps and convert the stock bottle and valve to high flow into a .257 barrel.
