    Calculating efficiency???

    Michael, One might also calculate the tube for size. Often the manufacturer is optimistic about the total cc. of only the tank size. Shoot till the regulated pressure is reached, otherwise a big plenum wil give a different result then a smaller one. Reaching regulated presure is different than...

    BSA Air Rifles

    You'll be supriced what a normal quality .22 bsa barrel does with pellets AND slugs. However, just like any other brand, there are also bsa barrrels that are not that good. Just push a pellet thru, then you'll know. But even then, a bad bsa outshoots many others. Regards, Robert

    Tuning TAIPAN CZ 700MM BARREL - THERE'S HOPE!

    mtnGhost, I fully agree on re crowning en re chambering the cz barrel. Just got in a 550mm barrel, had to space up the chamber to give the .217 21grn room to enter whithout damage from the probe. It is a tight fit, even for pellets. The crowning was kind of weird. a long choke and at the...

    Taipan vs edgun

    Experience with both in .22 The Taipan cz barrel (NOT the lw barrel) is a little bit better with pellets and slugs up to 25grn. The trigger is very good for bullpub type of gun. The power is adjustable without taking the gun apart, handy with changing from slugs to pellets vice versa. The...

    Tuning TAIPAN ... Veteran No more hammer PING & Some other tuning tricks

    Made a heavier hammer by drilling a hole 5,5 cm deep, 5mm wide in the hammer. Filled it with lead and made a peek tip for closure and to reduse sound. Also made a pom guide/seating for the spring. A stock hammer weights about 24 gram, this one 26. This realy reduced the sound. Do not...
