Hobby 400FPS

Not as consistent as the one with the 14in barrel.

If your breech seal is bad, (when you take a shot) Co2 will escape around the threads where the Co2 cap goes.

550fps with Beeman FTS 14gr pellets.
Very consistant (inbetween 2 to 3FPS up and down)
I have a 14in HW barrel from MAC 1 on mine.
I haven’t tried B&A’s barrel.
I have 3 600’s. I think I am going to by a 23″barrel from B&A and cut to fit a 2250 stock to turn one of my 600’s into a rifle.

They only differnce is that the tube extendes a little bit further on the SS then the talon.
Talon weighs .25 LB. more due to the longer barrel.
The over all legth is almost the same as well.
They main differnce is the barrel length.
Do you want a 12″ barrel or 18″barrel?
