My Taipan Veteran std cal.22

[octavius]

Hey guys I have new toy just 4 days now It is Veteran in RED stock. When arrived it shoot 935fps 18gr JSB. I´m not familiar with the gun yet but I work on it.

I´m little bit sad when I remove moderator I found small damage on the crown. See pictures...

Is it bad? Have I claim it to my seller?

Here is crown on my HW100

What is yours crowns on Veteran please? THX

 

[Yo]

Crazy as this may sound have tried shooting it yet for groups? Yo!

 

[Yo]

I'd send that picture to your dealer anyway let's see what HE says about THAT. Yo!

 

[likkitysplyt]

Who did you buy it from?

 

[Yo]

NAME NAMES. Yo!

 

[octavius]

It shoot quite good but I feel there are some fliers sometimes. According to me it doesn't have to be on the crown right? I bought it from balistas.com

Definitely I will send the picture to dealer. I would be more happy if the crown has been ok...

 

[Yo]

I'd have him send you an INSPECTED replacement barrel. Yo! 

 

[octavius]

Yes it is my plan. I will insist to change barrel for undamaged. I'm angry from this.

 Unless the rifle is shooting exceptionally well, which I have to doubt, I would ask for a replacement. It should be just as smooth as your Weihrauch barrel.

 

[octavius]

I think is not shooting exceptionally well...

 

[Yo]

HOLEY CRAP! FIFTY METERS WITH THAT MESSED UP CROWN??? I Can ONLY IMAGINE if you recrowned it. JUST THINKING OUT LOUD THATS ALL! Yo!

 

[Yo]

HOPEFULLY HE LETS YOU KEEP THAT BARREL TOO! Yo!

 

[octavius]

YO, sorry I didn't understand what you meant in your previous post please? Sure recrowning is solution but I bought it like new I want new barrel or repaired by dealer.

 

[Yo]

Have him send you a new barrel after he makes sure it appears to be all good before shipping it to you. Don't mention anything about shipping that bad barrel back or if he asks tell him you want a refund on your return barrel shipping and insurance charge. Let's see what he says about THAT. Yo!

 

[octavius]

Thanks. It sounds like good plan  

 

[elh0102]

Well, I would not return that barrel before shooting the one offered in exchange. Those are pretty good groups. Let the target tell you what to do.

DAMN GOOD IDEA! Yo!

 

[octavius]

Understand, but If I would like to sell it one day new guy will see that as first thing when he unscrew the moderator. Can anyone make a picture from your veteran barrel crown please? 

 

[Chuck-in-Ohio]

Man oh man, if it shoots that good with a bad barrel, you are bound for worldwide fame once it has a GOOD barrel installed.



I would not worry about that crown buddy, that rifle is gold.

 

[octavius]

Ok guys, when the weather allows I fill the gun to 250bar and I try to shoot again whole shot string to 120bar again. If you are satisfied with those group then ok but I was scared when I find it.
