Taipan .25 Vet 2 Tactical poppet valve
- By Slyde
- PCP Airguns
- 0 Replies
Hello all. Just wanted to share something I did to my V2T that was inspired by @weevil. Thanks for the information. I made a new poppet valve and stem but used titanium instead of steel for the stem and also filed 1mm off the diameter of the stem for 10mm behind the poppet. I used POM instead of PEEK for the poppet because I wasn’t sure if I could be precise enough to polish the poppet face of PEEK. And I have to say, what a PITA to file titanium. I don’t have a mill or lathe, all I have is a decent drill press so everything was done with that and by hand. Drilling perfectly in the center of the POM was a challenge, after that it was trying to stay patient with Diamond and metal files. Stock valve on right, mine on left. I didn’t try to get the contour perfect, I was getting nervous about breaking it. The stock poppet weighs 41.5 gr and the new one is 26.8 gr. Everything is back together and I was able to shoot it today. I need less HST now, about one less revolution minimum to achieve the same FPS but that’s comparing it to warmer temps. Valve dwell seems very fast. The ES and SD are still a bit higher than I’d like but damn it shoots nice. Granted it’s only 47 yards, that’s all I have, but it shoots great. On the left of the target is just initial HST dialing and letting the V2T adjust from going from 68 to 35 degrees. After it settled down, I shot the next 5 groups in a row with two different slugs. The last with the KO’s I think I thought I could just point and shoot so it got a bit loose. Oh, and it’s holding air.
Sorry for the long post.
Edited to add that all the tight groups were 5 shot and I think 8 on the last KO. And I hadn’t polished the seat face yet in the pic.

Beeman Beeman 2027 Question or 2

I have 2 of the 2027's and a 2028. The 2027 has been very accurate and after a spring change gets about 50 good shots per fill . I put a barrel from Barra on it a 19 incher and at around 2200 psi I get over 900 fps pretty amazing for a 50cc tube on a $120.00 gun. I kept the other one stk in case I ever need parts.
the 2028 had a bad barrel but Because of Ransomy Beeman replace the barrel and it has shot great since. I also have the 1357 and 1358 that also shoot great Those got bought from Manno for $108.oo for the first and $118.oo for the second all of them got a spring change to improve shoot count from the cliff dive they started out as

Optics I believe I will try to get a hawk if I can afford one, but I like the bug buster compact. I saved my mtc viper connect “damm nice scope” But they say that they’re not springer rated .and it on my quiet 22…. I really do like a red dot for fieldwork but the bug Buster should be enough until I get into any kind of competition then I’ll get a 16 power hawk probably.. I got spoiled with the airgun scopes, I love my MTC connect.@Beanflippinclint - Welcome to AGn and HNGD! Excellent choice for your first springer! I suggest trying the .22 H&N Field Target Trophies 553 or 554 head size pellets. They fit nice and tight in the breech. German rifle, German Pellets. I have always had great accuracy with these pellets. Buy them in bulk, you will need them. Pyramid or Airgun Depot (same company, go figure) has decent prices and fast shipping. They work well for target shooting, plinking or pesting.

What kind of optics are you going to use? I am a Hawke scope fanboi. They have nice glass, nice reticles and an awesome lifetime warranty. Athlon scopes are another good choice, the reticle is a little thicker and easier on the eyes. Youtube has tons of videos on scopes. Check out "Cyclops" on youtube, he is an awesome scope reviewer and knows his scopes.
Stock screws are your accuracy enemies until you blue loctite them in place. Have a good set of screw drivers available. The rear trigger screw will come loose and there goes your accuracy, wtf? Yep, anytime accuracy goes to hell, check the stock screws.
These are a heckin' nice screw driver set with excellent bits. This kit has everything needed to keep your stock screws tight. Nice piece of kit.

Use a piece of soft cloth like a cotton handkerchief to provide some slip on the bag and let the rifle do it's thing. These bags are great and made in the Great State of Pennsylvania.

I suggest shooting a few tins out of your rifle and get used to it. They are great rifles and very fun to shoot. I suggest shooting soup cans, they are much more fun than paper when strung up on para cord or wire.
There are tons of vides on tuning Weihrauch rifles and many members here enjoy working on them. Watch a few videos and go from there.
Most of all, have fun with your new rifle. I started with an HW77 and now I have a "few more" springers than I had planned on. They are like potato chips, you cannot eat just one!

Concord (Bay Point) 10M starts on January 24You guys are the club that is three hours away from me. You are in Cupertino correct? You are the closest that I’ve found. I’m in Clovis. There is a local group that shoots rimfire silhouette. They are very friendly and have let me bring my air rifle to one of their meets. Very informal and friendly atmosphere. They only had about 6 other shooters so I think they were happy that I was interested even if I fit bring an air rifle to their rimfire match.
