Yup .22 is all I've owned for a long time now. Intended use is a heavier/faster pellet shooter than my Evol Mini with higher shot count. Right now I tuned it to 930fps with 18gr JTS which puts the 22gr JTS at 850fps. Might bump it up to shoot them a hair faster but will see how they handle the wind. But want to balance accuracy with both to not switch tunes. The 18gr will be when wind is low. But basically taking my Evols spot.
Lol actually mine is actually a Long that was basically NIB from what it looks like. I did see that other one also that sold very quick. But anyways to answer your question which coincides with Coles above, since I got the Taipan for what my Evol used to do, my Evol is now tuned to 12fpe with the red dot. I shoot my low powered guns alot and figured I might as well use it and if I ever have an issue with the Taipan that my Evol can fill the role.

And thanks to all lol. Yeah I have loved Taipans in the past and have always kicked around getting a bigger gun again with more power and shot count than my Mini which has been my main gun for 2 years now. Which nothing has interested me enough to actually get. But when I saw this gun come up for the price I literally couldn't believe it didn't sell 5 min after being put up. I wish Taipan didn't quit making these as I'd probably have had one awhile back already. Oh well. Its all worked out for the better. But seriously it's nice not being tempted with guns when I don't frequent here.
Yeah I'll need to stay there since there's no classifieds lol

Nice find there. From what I have read about those Veteran Long's that would be a good platform for a long range slug shooter, keeping the Evol Mini for closer pellet work.

Spring fever has been pretty heavy on me. I'm with you though on maybe needing to be banned, as I spend too much time looking at all the possibilities... And to think I have a gun show this weekend that I'm planning to visit as well...

I would love to see them put this action into a traditional monte carlo or rollover comb stock.

I don't understand the problem
That's not a problem, Baldone, really.
Understanding the problem is not the problem....
But
HAVING the problem — now THAT is a problem!!
Here's mine:
It was about a year too early for me to buy another gun.
But there was the opportunity that hadn't come up in like 10 years.
So, I bought the gun. Yesterday.
Today, the airgun club advertises a group-buy with 500$ savings....
What is an honest and committed airgun nut like me supposed to do —
when such gun buying opportunities walz in like a hippopotamus into a prenatal care unit

PS: So, what was the day the AA meeting was being held?

I'm back up to 8 again when I was down to 3 at the beginning of the year. 6 of those are custom Krals lol.
Took a break for 14 years
Back for 6 months = 2 new rifles/ scopes...thousands of pellets..support equipment...BIG bottle of tylenol for all the frustrations that come.
Afraid to see what happens in a year
P.S. did i forget to mention slugs

Nice airgun! Congrats!
Fortunately (?), here in Canada the choice in airguns is limited - that helps to keep temptations to the minimum.
Just as well because I don't need or want any more airguns, but then I've said that for the last four I've bought.
There's just one more on order, it's the last one... honest!
...where is that AA meeting being held?
Cheers!
