    Anyone knows the best temperature for a co2 rifle to work properly?

    Yes, Co2 can be great to use, but you must know the perimeters of it ... it is NOT like HPA, it is a different animal. wll

    Anyone knows the best temperature for a co2 rifle to work properly?

    I have been shooting my 18" barreled C02 Talon SS exclusively for over a month now in some very cold weather ....but I have kept the tank in the 65 degree range at its coldest. In the 68 degree range I shoot CPHP's at ~625 fps and JSB Jumbo Heavies in the 575fps range. When the tank is in the...

    What Power You Using For Eurasian Collard Doves ?

    @nervioustrig, I will take your expertise into my thought process as i surely don't want to cause any needless suffering. This gun is very accurate but i do have things to deal with ... most importantly is the fact Co2 is temp sensitive and I very, very quickly found out with the help of...

    What Power You Using For Eurasian Collard Doves ?

    Thank you guys for all your info, I will be doing the best I can to get frontal chest shots or head shots in the 30-35 yard vicinity. I will be doing my best to keep the Co2 in the 70's so the speed stays in the 620-630fps area with CPHP's. I may wrap a couple of disposable hand warmers around...

    What Power You Using For Eurasian Collard Doves ?

    I just discovered Eurasian Collard Doves are an unprotected bird in California, and I do see lots of them when I'm out, and I do mean lots and lots of them . I'm going to use my 22 Talon converted to Co2 gun. Has a bit over 12fpe at the muzzle and over 8fpe at 35 yards ----- So I think I'm in...

    Your Thoughts On The New TalonP Carbine .25

    My used TalonP with a Mad Dog Stock and Tatsu Moderator. She is shooting a nice and easy 40 fpe going out ~726+ fps with JSB Exact King heavies. I just bought some Nielsen 38.5gr slugs and plan on pushing them around the same speed, giving me ~45fpe at the muzzle and around 40fpe at 50 yards ---...

    [WTB] 18" .22 Cal Airforce Talon Barrel !

    If anyone has one let me know as I want to install it on a SS Talon that I have. Want the extra length as I'm using the gun with a Co2 conversion adapter and the extra barrel length will give me a bit more speed. Thank you, wll

    Hammerli 850 --- Are They Gone Forever Or Just On Backorder ?

    The Umarex 850 is available I see but it is IMHO way overpriced when you can get an Avenger at the same price. Ya they are not the same thing for sure, but I'm just saying. You can also get a new QB78S for around $75 and have it pretty cheaply modified to take refillable co2 canisters. wll...

    Co2 Conversion in Talon Anyone ?

    At my spot at 7ish, have the new filled 20oz tank and the wheel has been adjusted to 5.8. Took out the FX Chrono and I'm shooting in the 665fps+ range with 14.3gr CPHP's, JSB Jumbo Heavies are in the 617fps+ range ---- that's 14+ and 15+ fpe respectively ---- that is awesome with Co2 ! I will...

    Co2 Conversion in Talon Anyone ?

    Went out today and blasted rocks but noticed the Pop had gotten out of the Poop so I checked my tank, i had a less than 2oz of Co2 left in my 20oz tank >>> changed tanks and now she is shooting very, very hard ... Well in the 625+fps range. I will take the tank off the gun as I think leaving it...

    Co2 Conversion in Talon Anyone ?

    Yes, the Co2 thing makes plinking a lot more fun and enjoyable knowing I don't have to recharge my tank after every 30+ shots and then after a short while turn on the compressor and do that rigamarole dance ! I can shoot and shoot and shoot and run out a tin if I wanted and still have enough...

    [WTB] R&L Shroud for 18" Barreld Airforce Talon !

    Looking for the barrel shroud and everything that goes with it for a Talon with a 18" barrel. Want to quite my Talon down, but don't want the look of a moderator on this gun. wll
