My New AAA.25 Condor
Finally got to shoot my new toy, a .25 Condor made by Tony.
First, I decided to go with a OP valve from Tim; I wanted to have dead solid valve with no need to adjust anything, and I think Tony and I got it where it needs to be. I wonder if anyone else went the same route. The bipod Tony put on that thing is look like it’s been there from day one – dead solid, sturdy, and is a true improvement to the rig. The shroud is impressively effective. I think I have done every possible mod Tony have on his site. I decided to put a Bushy 4200 6-24×40 MD on it. Didn’t do any accuracy tests, but perhaps on a calm day I’ll sight it in at 45 yards or so.
I had two bottles for Tony to modify: custom OP valves had to be custom fitted. The first bottle is for 31 gr. Kodiak and the second one for 42 gr. EJ, which I put to test. So, the bottle for EJ spits 42 gr. EJ @ 975 fps, and Kodiak @ 1030 fps. I was able to get 22 full power shots with the pressure started @ 2900 psi.
Overall I am impressed with Tony’s work. Definitely worth every penny.
More will follow…

When I ordered mine he said he was 6 to 8 weeks behind. That was about a month ago. I’m ready! Well, no I still need to figure out how I am going to supply air. I am thinking I will get a pump but I am not sure which one is best. Hill Pump?
