AIRGUN of the YEAR 2022 (Full Review) TAIPAN Veteran TACTICAL Long

[kaylaindy]

Hey guys! I am proud to bring you my pick for Airgun or the Year for 2022. The Taipan Veteran Tactical (Long) is not only stunning to behold...it's also a merciless tack driver! ...and that's just with that factory tune! This bullpup style PCP air rifle can be tuned to shoot any ammo up to 1010 FPS and all the way down to 400 FPS. Add to that a CZ barrel and a regulator that delivers 60 on the money shots within 1-3 FPS of each other! This full review will give you an up close look at the best performing PCP rifle to come out in 2022. You can find this gun in stock now at Talon Tunes. Thanks for watching! -Nate

NOTE: This is version 2 of this video. Some of the comments below reflect version 1, when I said the gun was 300 bar. I fixed the video and reposted it.

Thanks for the great reviews Nate! Keep them coming!

 

[Str8tshooter]

I like the looks of the Tactical better than the other versions. Nice review, thanks!

Nate, why do you keep filling that gun to 300 bar when it is clearly marked on the receiver "Max. 250bar"?

Was wondering this myself. As usual, he puts his hands on the gun for about 20mins to do a review, and throws it up for sale. Lots of misinformation in his videos!

Even talontunes website states 250bar max fill!

 

[Joedirt199]

Because he just wants to make extra money making videos.

The 300 bar fill also makes the shot count inaccurate in the video as well.

Wow, that was a major mistake. I am suprised the gun worked. Hmmmm. I guess I'll leave a comment with a correction. I was in a hurry to do this video. I guess I should read the manual next time.

...maybe repost the video... Thanks for the heads up!

...and I did this video for free. Sending the gun back. I just had to try it!

 

[kaylaindy]

I reposted the video. The old one is unlisted. Now it says 250 bar in the video.

Thanks for the heads up guys. You saved my butt on that one! -Nate

Thank you for the very thorough review, Nate. Do you have any idea if the barrel is choked or not? Would definitely be interested in trying some slugs here.

They are choked, I also believe they are all LW barrels now. Unless you order the "aftermarket" CZ .22 barrel .

The Taipan is an excellent pup. They do need to move the cocking forward. That detail/feature is holding it back in my opinion.

Interesting, as it is marked CZ on the block?

Czech Republic. That has ZERO relation to the barrel.

 

[Nomadic Pirate 66]

That is one gun I really would like to have.

 

[Str8tshooter]

Czech Republic. That has ZERO relation to the barrel.

Hi, I've been read the forum looking for some specific info but i have not found what i need... so i open this thread. I'm looking for a taipan veteran in .22. I've been said that now taipan comes with LW instead of CZ that is the barrel that they used to mount in. I know the performance of...

Where answers are inconsistent
That is because some have CZ and some don't from my understanding most of the newer rifles if not all? (could be wrong here) have LW barrels

I think @mtnGhost could clarify this .... he is the Taipan Guru

 

[Str8tshooter]

Thats cool , just because someone puts it on the their page doesn't make it so

True, but just because members posted in the thread you linked that they have a LW barrel doesn't mean that the new Tactical has a LW barrel?

Where is it labeled with a LW barrel?
