Which pellet ?
Hello,
I have had my gun just couple of weeks now (.22 standard Talon) and haven’t have too much time to fine tune power adjustments nor experimenting with different pellets.
My main goal is to find decent ~15 grain pellet and shoot with 240-260 m/s or about 20-25 fpe power level. This seems to give decent trajactory on the ranges I am looking for and hopefully save some air (based on knowledge – not experience). I would like to have 50+ shots from one fill (190-200 bar). +/- 5 mm vertical POI change is acceptable during string. Range is 35m mostly but sometimes upto 70 meters. On very rare cases 100m.
Since many have propably performed zillions of test already would someone mind sharing experience and some tips for pellet choice and power level tweaking. Especially how many shots I can expect with that power and acceptable POI change.
Looks like my Tophat gap is now 2mm with factory settings. Power wheel seems to respond quite nicely. With power 0 setting I shot 110+ shots with quite a little variation. Power was enaugh for low range shooting (200->140 bar).
ps. Is there ANY decent or simple way to approximately determine fpe/velocity during tweaking without chrono or am I just gonna waste my time?
Thanks.

What yellow Ninja said but to tell you the truth my .22 Talon loves the Kodiaks. They come in at a bit higher weight than your preference but oh boy my Talon loves them. It’s second preference is .22 CPs.
Speaking of the Kodiaks the .25 Condor I have loves them too…
