Taipan Well well... it does like pellets....

That's what I was expecting to see from the Vet 2 . Nice group I'm using the 25.3s AEAs with success myself.

Good job showing it's true potential and your ability. And clearing up the pellets at 100y debate . Go team Taipan !

That is an impressive group at 100 yards…

SAWEET!

The proof is in the puddin' aint it? Very nice!

Dayyumm! Nice!

Exceptional group in wind with pellets! Vet2 is special nice pics.

So that's how an un-choked barrel does with the right pellets. I wonder why the bench shooters don't use the V2s or V1s in competition ?

Very nice.
Something like that i dont think happen in " my " caliber, even if you also cut a little off the distance.
At least that is my feeling from having tried pellets a little when i some times have run out of slugs, but at range ( say 80 ) well not so much luck, but 50 M or Yards if you like and it is not bad.

I took my Taipan tactical out to the range for some 100 yard shooting. Remembered that a bought some AEA pellets and thought well shoot 10 forget about it. Well to my surprise this slug gun loves the AEA 25.3 25 cal. Shooting them very hot I know over 1000fps but still for some reason those pellets like shooting fast. 5 shot group at a 100 yards....wind was 5-10 mph....View attachment 474428View attachment 474430View attachment 474431

Whats the barrel length on that gun, looks quiet

Hard to complain about that!

I say the same thing they are very very underrated guns...

Not benchrested but I used my 1st Gen Vet Long to shoot the Extreme Field Target match at EBR in 2022 and placed high enough to win some money. 3rd I think. Tied with Nikolai Boldov and the tie went to me b/c I'd hit more of the standing bipod shots than he did.

VERY underrated guns. Although with the first gen, at least some of that was power output, at least in .22. In OEM form the first gen just couldn't quite push a Monster RD to their most effective speeds.

Amazing 100 yard group in your post!!! Great shooting.

I just tried the AEA .30 pellets last week & was very pleased & surprised with the accuracy. Will be trying the .25's this morning on ground squirrels. Hope I get the same results.
