You should check out my post on how to tune the Texan. It’s very informative.

Be aware that if you go with ultra-light weight projectiles and low pressures... some combination will yield very high velocities. MY experience with 2,200 PSI and sabots under 50gr have gone supersonic.

Good advice on reducing the top hats travel... Solid fix for anyone looking to reduce the power with out experiencing valve dump.

MadDog has a good assortment of stocks to choose from. I selected the RJ-6A Recon LSS stock for my build.

What's the length of your rifle? I have a modified Airforce Texan that measures 53" overall and it fits in the Pelican 1755 case.

Ya my AirForce Texan may have a couple of small mods… lol. I got sucked into the idea of finding and extending the rifles limits in distance shooting. I’ve taken jack rabbits as far out as 440 yards and can hit a man sized target out to 600… even in mild to medium winds gusting up to 15mph...

What I’m trying to say is if a scope can survive the recoil of an.308, there is a high likelihood that it would have no problem with the Texan .50.

If you want to compare the Air Force Texan 50 Cal to a .308 Center fire rifle, the Air Force Texan is mild, I’d describe the Texan recoil as a firm yet smooth push against the shoulder, where a .308 has a snappy kick, and significantly more recoil.

I’m shootings my rile at 319bar on the high end and run 3 large air tanks at 450bar, this allows me to keep one tank on the compressor while shooting. I’ve been considering the booster pump and may add it to my toolbox as a backup.

Recoil varies with bullet weight, pressure, rifle weight, and your tune. There are two many variables to answer your question intelligently.

When I’m hunting I gotta wait for the second wind to kick in. Rifle is always heavy when first head out. Doug at Mad Dog makes great stocks.

Here we are tuning a .72 cal Zeus. A high quality regulator, a couple of large air talks and my spreadsheet are all you that’s needed to start making one ragged hole. Note: The larger the caliber the more air you consume.

Every rifle will have its own individual seeet spot for the pressure and power wheel. If you wish to maximize your rifle, read this and download the attachments for tuning. https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/how-to-tune-your-airforce-texan-for-max-velocity-with-very-little-waisted-air.1318159/

My rifle is slinging the 385gr. Mr. Hollowpoiint slugs at just over 950fps.

I have a few ideas on how to get “the most” out of your Texan. I’ve posted a tuning guide with examples and testing procedures that you will find helpful.

100yards/untethered.

Have you considered the idea of adding both light weight and stiffness, while keeping the overall length and sound to a minimum? This rifle with carbon fiber shroud is quiet, very stiff, and shoots 1 MOA groups at 100 yards all day long. Occasionally… it will shoot 1/2 MOA groups but I still...

Yes, whether I’m shooting long range, for accuracy, or tuning for max velocity with a perticular slug… I always shoot tethered. The only time I’m not tethered is when hunting. What slugs are you slinging and what kind of accuracy & velocity are you getting? Attached; 8” gong, 400 yards, 10...
