Received earlier this week from Matt @ RL Airguns and finally had a chance to unbox and mount a Athlon 4-14x44. I sold my .25 standard to buy the shorty and again another GREAT Taipan. Light, short, quiet and the best trigger available.
I owned one as well. I was beyond satisfied with the quality and power of that tiny beast in .25 caliber! I put a DonnyFL on it and I could shoot all day with absolutely NO noise! I have "Leftist" neighbors who don't believe in such nonsense, so I shoot as often as possible!
