So, I picked up a used talon, that had been customized by R&L, I love the gun!
Power and accuracy!
But, with the RL setup, it's turning 32+fpe.
At 2000 psi, it's still at 991 fps with 14.3's.
With winter setting in here in Wisconsin, a lot of my shooting will be done indoors in my silent pellet trap,
Currently, it burns through one inch of ductseal like it was nothing. So I added a steel backer, and a second layer of ductseal.
In the UK Airforce guns are sold under the Gunpower name, no power wheel, and are limited to sub 12 fpe from the factory.
What springs and top hat are they using to get sub 12 energy?
I would like to drop in the low power one for the winter, and in the spring, swap it out for high power.
Thanks guys in advance..

1. The US Soldier will have on his person a version of the Colt 1911.
2. He will be aiming the NEW Weapon at someone carrying an AK47.

Ian all you need to do is buy a micro meter tank. In .22 it should be about 12 - 13 fpe if memory serves me correct. It will give you a better shot count to. The other alternative would be to buy a Co2 adapter and use that. My sons .22 talon with a 12" barrel is right at 10.5 fpe with his running on Co2 lots of shots to like 300+.

I talked to Airforce today, they suggested the same thing, but they say my shot count would still only be about 100 shots per fill.
In talking with a friend in the uk, on his completely stock Gunpower stealth (Airforce Talon with external supressor and no power wheel) he gets in excess of 300shots in .22 with a 3000 psi fill.
So I don't know if theirs is a combination of
the micrometer tank,
a light hammer and light spring.

Yes you should be able to tune it with lighter hammer and spring to get more shots out of the micro meter tank. Co2 is worth a look also if all you want to do is punch paper in the house you wont need to worry about temp problems or to much power. The adapter is about $100 and requires no mods to the rifle because it attaches just like the standard tank does.
