A thank you to @gendoc for this amazing airforce. I've done plenty of pesting with single shot with my old leshiy classic. I did not think that I would have this kind of success with an airforce though.
The gun arrived to me super well packaged and when I took all the parts out of the bag it looked practically unused. I honestly thought he bought it and never took it out of the box, I also thought this because we traded rifles last year, huben .25 for his vulcan .25.
Anyway, I put the gun together and top it off with my LH arked 6-24x50. In the morning I get it sighted in at about 23yrds with the new 30gr slugs that Dale (Varmint Knocker) makes. Initially they were grouping half an inch, but the more I shot them the better they grouped, so I called it good. Fast foward 5 hours of iguana removal at various properties, I head to one of our golf courses to take a gentleman out on a hunt with my partner.
We displayed our options of pcps for him to choose.
VULCAN 3 .25
GK1 .22
FX IMPACT MK3 .25
FX DREAMLINE .22
AIRFORCE TALON P .25
He picks up the TalonP and doesn't even eant to try any of the other ones. I let him know that it's a single shot pcp, so as long as he doesnt mind having to reach for another round or being given rounds as he shoots he'll be good. He says he doesn't mind that at all and prefers the look of it, he also said the eye relief was set up perfect for him with that gun so he got to use it for the whole trip. My partner chose the dreamline and I stuck with my trustee GK1.
This Airforce Talon P surprised me to say the least...not just the gun itself but also the ammo that I got from Varmint Knockers. He out down 43 iguanas, we were only able to recover 36, BUT 43 iguanas were put down in just 3 hours. By a gentleman who has never shot pcps with a single shot. I am thoroughly impressed with this rig, thanks again @gendoc !!
