I bought a 700mm CZ barrel for my Vet Long .22 a couple years ago in hopes of having an effective 100yd rig. I am open to shooting either pellets or slugs. However I am hand-pumping so 40+ fpe slammer setups are out of the question for now. So far I haven’t had great luck getting slugs to...

Took the vet apart to adjust the regulator. When I got it back together the magazine is not cycling. When I watch the anti-double-feed ball bearing mechanism while cocking (after trigger pull), it doesn’t move. It seems the anti-double feed mech is not resetting. Top-down pic of breech below...

I have a new 700mm barrel and power plenum coming in and was wondering if anyone had any good ammo recommendations and tuning setups to share (reg pressure, FPS)? I am not looking for record breaking FPE, just an accurate tune w/ JSB 18.1, RD Monsters, and/or slugs. Preferably getting at least...

Back in May, I bought a new Veteran Long .22 with LW barrel. At the time of purchase, pellet selection was a no-brainer: it seems like 95% of Veteran users shoot JSB 18.1s, and the other 5% are experimenting with slugs. Because I am hand pumping, there is a premium on shot count, but I still...

Recently, I have spent a lot of time tuning my Taipan Veteran Long in .22. The goal of my tune is to shoot JSB 18.1s at ~885 fps with consistency of every shot including the cold bore shot(s). To do this, I have (painstakingly) tuned the Huma regulator to the point where the “knee” is 880-890...

I recently installed a Huma regulator in my Taipan Veteran Long .22. I set the pressure to 100 bar to shoot JSB 18.1s @ 885 fps. I now have ~300-400 shots through it since the install, and have experienced some velocity fluctuations early on that I have chalked up to regulator break in...

Long story short, I bought a Veteran Long .22 in May and have had nothing but issues with velocity inconsistency. As mentioned in a previous post, I had random large velocity fluctuations with the OEM regulator (30-40fps). After tinkering with the HST to no avail, I broke down and bought a Huma...

I recently installed a Huma regulator in my Taipan Veteran Long .22 because the OEM reg would occasionally give large extreme spreads (~30 fps). I set the Huma reg to 115 bar and installed it. Gun appears to work fine, holds air like before, etc. With the HST ~maxed, the gun will push 18.1 JSBs...

What are some of your favorite/clever/unique PCP airgun personalizations? How do you make your guns your own? These can be for improving form and/or function, and they can be anything from "homemade" improvisations to aftermarket accessories. Note, this is not meant to be a laundry list of your...

Lately I’ve been working on tuning my new Taipan Veteran Long .22 for ~long range shooting (100-150 yards). However, I’ve run into some unexpected behavior regarding pellet stability at range. Note that the gun is tuned to shoot JSB 18.1s at 880 fps. Inside 40 yards: Very accurate, one...

I was wondering if anyone has tried the 25gr Redesigned Monsters out of their Taipan Veteran .22? I am particularly interested if anyone has tried them out of a Veteran Long .22 with LW barrel, but I welcome anyone with experience to chime in. How is accuracy compared to 18.1s (50/100 yards)...

In recent tuning efforts with my Taipan Veteran Long .22, I have been trying to find the optimal speed for accuracy with JSB 18.1 pellets. From the factory the gun was tuned to shoot the 18.1s at a consistent 985 fps. However, I dialed back the hammer spring tension and found that it groups best...

I was wondering if anyone knew of any aftermarket product or easy way to extend the length of pull on a Taipan Veteran? Being 6'3", the stock is a bit short for me, especially when shooting prone. Buying an entire custom stock is probably off the table for me right now, but I know people are...

Hi all, I recently purchased my first PCP airgun, a new Taipan Veteran Long .22 with laminate stock and LW barrel from TalonTunes. I decided on the Veteran due to its seemingly perfect record as a reliable, accurate, consistent bullpup. Unfortunately, after putting around 1000 pellets through...

I am a ~young shooter and recently got my first PCP airgun (Taipan Vet Long .22). My current goal is to tune the gun for max precision but the more I shoot the more I notice that the most minute differences in the way I hold the gun, configure my head, allow the gun to recoil, etc. affect the...

Hi all, I recently got a Taipan Vet Long .22 and am in the process of tuning it for max precision with JSB 18.1s. Talon Tunes sent a chrono string with 18.1s and the mean velocity was around 985 fps. At 50 yards with little to no wind I’m getting .75” to 1.5” groups prone off a bipod and rear...

Hi! I am fairly new to the PCP airgun scene, and recently purchased a Taipan Veteran due to the high acclaim that I've seen on forums like this one. During my bullpup research process, I noticed striking similarities between many options and the Taipan Veteran. Now, I understand that different...

Looking for recommendations for NSA slugs for a Taipan Vet Long .22 (LW barrel). I am primarily interested in the 17.5, 20.2, and 23.0gr options because I don't have a chrono to check my velocities and I want to avoid blind HST tuning. Ideally, I'd be able to leave the gun at the the JSB 18.1...

Does anyone have a parts list/breakdown for the Taipan Veteran (o-ring sizes, screw sizes, torque recommendations, etc.)? I don't have the gun yet, but I am particularly interested in removing/replacing the stock (screw head sizes/recommended torque). The "User Manual" document from Taipan's...
