Title: Aluminum breech for Condor
Post by: mcc1961 on August 01, 2014, 01:16:21 AM

I am thinking about ordering  this breech for my .25 condor.Is there any benefits over the plastic one it has now?

Decided to order the breech , hopefully it will be worth the money. Supposed to make it shoot more consistent and not use as much air.

 Aluminum breeches don't work real good when you have to use it to cock the gun. It is metal on metal.

I use a aluminum breech on my .308 but it cocks with a nob on the hammer.

On my .257 I have the same setup and still am using a delrin breech. I will replace it with aluminum at some point because I shoot on 4000 psi sometimes.

With stock spring and low preload you might not have any issues.
