***favorite. Pcp****

First on the list is my Ernest tuned cricket compact .22 shooting jsb 18.1 @ 865. Brain dead accurate. Nabbed a crow @ lazered 110 yds. With an aeon 6-24 she rocks.
Second aa s2oo 12 fpe tricked out with Rowan brass, Tko, and swfa 10x sf md.one ragged hole @ 35 yds. 
Third a crosman 1701p with a 1720 tp .067. Shoot jsb 8.4 ave 675 for 30 shots. Nice cloverleaf @ 35 yds. 
 
I love me Taipans.

First was a Mrod gen2 syn .22. Had Huma reg, MM barrel, Hill valve kit and lite hammer. Just didn't like the lenght and wanted more power. SOLD

Second is a P-rod, have same as above minus lite hammer. Love the lite weight and shortness, power is perfect for what I wanted, pesting at less then 10m, 8fpe. Still got it and is a keeper.

Third was Mrod. gen2 syn .25 and had same as above minus the MM barrel. Like the power but wanted more efficiency and too long. SOLD

Forth was a Taipan Mutant short .22. I almost went with a Vulcan .25 but was glad I didn't, mainly cause of noise. The Mutant is just a fabulous gun, so short, quiet, smooth. Not sure if I'm gonna regret selling it or not. Just did that recently cause recently got next two. SOLD

Fifth Taipan Veteran std. .25, man this thing is fantastic, very powerful and quiet and smooth. Had it at about 60fpe but now at 55fpe. What an awesome gun but not sure if I'm gonna keep it cause of the next gun. Really only reason to keep it is the power. If the long version ever comes out then this will be sold for sure...well the long version needs more fpe if not then keeping this one.

Sixth Taipan Veteran shorty .25. Again short, quiet, smooth. What an amazing gun. Sometimes want more power which is why I also have the one above. Current power is 40fpe. This one is a keeper too.

My FX Royale 400 .22 is an outstanding rifle. Like others have said, it handles SOOOO very well and just fits! The only other PCP I have owned is an AA s510 also in .22. That was also outstanding but was more heavy in the front and had a crappy shot count. I have had the pleasure / privilege of shooting other high-end rifles (thanks Sam!) which include several crickets - both in BP and Carbine and I found I much prefer the carbine. I've also shot a Daystate and highly modified MRod. Both great guns!

I am very pleased to say that the Royale (which I rolled the dice and purchased without ever even handling a FX) edges them all out IMHO anyway!
