Taipan  .25 taipan standard

Yes, as far as I know, most Veteran 2's have CZ unchoked barrels.
My Vet two standard does have a cz (550) in .22, but I don't really know at this point if it's choked or not. And as far as a choke goes.. When slugging the .25 700mm Vet 2 barrel.. It does have the slightest of chokes close to the muzzle.

HW/Weihrauch  R7 compression tube scratches

All my ball hones are many years old and IIRC started life @ 240's, tho as they wear there grit aggressiveness becomes less & acting more along the lines of @ 320's.
With using ball hones a bit one direction then the other direction works ideal, as this breaks and smooths high spots or ridges seldom effecting the original bore specification.

Flat stone hones ( Sunnen etc .. ) will make a flat and even surface no doubt, but at the cost of lost material. Being these are NOT engine cylinders with cast iron / chrome rings doing the sealing ... but a flexible piston seal and as such a straight & true surface just is not required.
At the Piston tail wear end area of comp tube all we need is the two surface to not be in conflict on profile ( being near equal radius and smooth ) having then the lubricant used be the medium preventing wear and scuffing from the axial loads & vibration/ shuttering during the shot cycle ( Moly or like lubes )

Awesome Motorhead. Excellent info.

Air Venturi  Compact match pcp pistol?

I believe that gun is a snowpeak pp20

Look at rink steyr lp10 grip .. I see some said with a little sanding they work on the pp20 pistol but it's like 200+ bucks

You could email Wes and see if there's a lefty in these


Yong Heng leaks?

Both black-knob pressure release valves on my YH are opened before start and stop, except dead-head pressure test when I stop under pressure to check for leaks. Starting under pressure can lead to catastrophic damage, stopping, not so much, but best to release pressure before stopping, as well. Don't use set pressure function on my YH, monitor gun gauge till desired pressure, open pressure-release valves, run few seconds after air has vented, turn off compressor. WM

Collectors and the cathartic culdesac.

I accumulate, I do not collect. The things I have are all users. Guns, knives, tools, cars, computers... Everything I own is RTF (Run Till Fail). Some things will get there sooner than others.
My grandfather was an engineer. He liked to tell the story of two diesel generators. One the primary, the second, a backup. The primary was run every day, pretty much 24/7. The backup was started and tested once a month and then shut down. Guess which one wore out first? If you guessed the backup, you'd be correct.

Napier Stock Shield

I use the hand rubbed London oil from SB McWilliams. Easy to use/apply and dries quick.

You could also use BLO or a tung oil mix (tung oil cut with mineral spirits or turpentine) but I've found SBs hand rubbed to be the easiest to use for touching up oiled finishes.

Skout .25 Barrels, And Slug Selection.

Start with the CORBIN slugs built for the guns and sold by SKOUT.
They will be the correct size ... play from there.
Like @Motorhead said, "slugs built for the guns". I doubt 2 tins will be enough. I've shot lots of these slugs.
That high BC .2475" slug was made for the Evo .25 platform.
I thought the Evo guns were setup for this slug out of the box.
Might be good to call Skout.

FX  Impact m3 reg rebuild help

I really can't imagine FX putting them in that tight or with loctite. It could get inside the reg and foul up the machinery. Did you buy it new? Or is it possible a previous owner did this?

I would use a new Allen wrench and a short cheater and try to get it to break free. CCW is correct. As a last resort I'd heat it just a tad and work on it.

The reg only needs to be fully seated very lightly tightened. Like bottle valves, it ain't going nowhere under pressure.
I was using 5.0mm Allen key and it was on tight. I tried forcing it to the point it kinda round off the hex hole. I was like this isn't working, if i tried anymore it will strip it and im fk. So went to the store and bought a new set of Allen key. This one is brand new so i make sure it's seated in the hole and then turn it slowly and it finally broke free. I check the threads, no locktite. It was just on really tight. I bought it used but in good condition. So not sure if previous owner jam it stuck or was like that from factory. Anyhow how I can change the plastic piston into the brass piston.

Do You shoot Report Cards?

Wolverines are great rifles. I have the Hilite version. Stacks pellets and makes less noise than a mouse fart.
What do you feed your mice to make them fart ? i have never actually heard a mouse fart ,so i am not sure i would recognize the sound of one farting ? Maybe i should buy a Wolverine (in what caliber ?) amplified to simulate a mouse fart ? maybe i could train a mouse to fart on demand ? WOW a whole phase of this hobby i never thought of .
