I have one in 25, it’s newer, so it has the Sound-Lok system, which works well. A buddy had a decibel app for his phone and he checked it near the muzzle, no more than a normal conversation voice level. Pretty impressive.

It’s a dry wax type lube, seems to work well and smells purdy adang good too!

I have both and I give a slight edge to the Condor for both speed and accuracy. Of course that is purely my opinion. I’m sure that others more edu-ma-cated will chime in soon.

I’ve got two if them one on a Talon, the other on a Condor. They work great!

Hope this answers yer question though.

I’m assuming because I was not pushing the breech forward and just threaded the tank on with the breech closed. I’m guessing that the ‘O’-ring inside the breech was catching the top hat and unthreading it as I was threading the tank on.

I put some RTV on the teeny-tiny grub screws and the top…Read more

Talon 22 likes H&N 21.14/5.52 head diameter. Tried 5.50, .51 and .53, while the .51 works okay, the 5.52 works very well. I understand that the JSB is a 5.52 diameter head as well, so maybe there’s something to the head diameter. Same holds true of my buddies guns, H&N 21.14/5.52, although one buddy has an…Read more

Yeah, from looking/learning on the web, it seems that a lower power wheel setting is desirable. Setting the top hat between .080 and .090 seems to be the correct setting range as well, mine is set at .85 currently. I simply measured some differing thickness flat washers to get the right ones for several adjustment ranges instead of…Read more

Knowing that isn’t truly a target pellet, but groupings are excellent. Power wheel is set at about 3.2 and the best pressure spot is between 1850-2150 ish.

I have not chronied though, that’s up next just so I know. I have simply been going for the sweet spot…Read more

He said that the street noise was louder from the cars hissing by than that of the rifle. Said it was in the 80db range, which according to him is about what a normal conversation between a couple dudes would be.

My 2ยข anyway.

First post….

Your concept is a very interesting one. Have you considered using an actual plastic wad that would normally be used in reloading a shotshell? It would give you a basis to load the shot to since it is usually .75 oz in a 28 gauge hull. It would also give you a solid bottom for less deformation of the shot and…Read more
