the walther talon mag is somewhat comparable to the rws 350, but the velocity is a bit more. the 350 shoots about 24 ftlbs - max, and the beastie (my gun) shoots almost 27 ftlbs. the accuracy is about the same on both. the recoil is more on the beastie - i'm desiring to put a wooden stock on it. that plastic just isn't a good idea around any hatsan arms guns - powerline 1000, winchester 1000, walther talon mag / falcon hunter. i've stuffed the stock and it helps a lot. i lubed and tarred the spring and i put that macarri red piston seal in it - and that smoothed it out drastically - and bumped up the velocity. .........but the rws 350 costs twice as much. hatsan makes some great wood stocks - i just we could get "hatsan" products over here from turkey w/out someone else putting their name on them. they make the webleys i sell there also - and they have wonderful wood work. i'm thinking of pulling the beastie off the "for sale" list.
