    Taipan Veteran 2?

    The 550 in .25 has a unchoked, conventional rifled barrel. The cool thing about these guns is that you can tension the moderator and thus, barrel a little which you can use to fine tune the harmonics. These are basic rifles but built well, solid, smooth and the accuracy + precision is whats to...

    N/A What's your ultimate setup if you didn't have a budget or wife to kill you?

    For woods hunting I don’t use air rifles, I use a 16 inch CZ457 royal with a Leupold 3-9 AO scope. For pesting I use my Taipan vet standard in .22 and the new Taipan Vet 2 tactical in .25. These airguns are built solid and have never failed.

    It’s 12 groves. Barrel looked excellent under the bore scope. Perfect, sharp rifling with a mirror like finish. My barrels did require a decent amount of cleaning. They had anti rust inhibitors in them.

    RTI RTI Prophet vs Impact M3 for mild slug hunting gun

    When I had my P2 in .25, I never had a wondering POI. It was a decent shooter as well. When I had my M3, I did have POI shifts on occasion. It was a great shooter but I always felt like I had to be mindful of how I put it down, bumping the barrel shroud etc. As others stated, I would say the...

    Taipan Taipan Veteran II Tactical

    I make them. I havent made any OG taipan pads in a while but I'll see if I have any in inventory. I would also recommend getting some m4x30 Stainless socket head bolts or titanium (Monster Bolts) to replace the carbon steel bolts as they get sweaty and will rust eventually.

    Taipan Veteran 2?

    The standard in 550 felt just like the OG standard in .22 in the shoulder. The balance was perfect, making the rifle feel lighter than it’s weight suggests. The targets that day were placed at 30, 50 and 65 yards. Without cleaning first, the rifle was zeroed using 34g JSB mk1s. After about 2...

    .25 cal jsb Knockouts shot excellent. A lot more testing and tuning is coming. The gun has power. I’ve got a tactical model on the way in 550 so that should be interesting. Get all three in a row and start testing…exciting times in the air gun world.

    The Vet 2 is so well made it makes other air rifles feel cheap in hand. Its incredible.
