Correction: AirForce has clarified that there isn't a new heavier hammer spring and one is NOT needed with the new bottle!
AirForce has upped the ante once again and their new line of carbon fiber (CF) bottle Texans are producing over 700 foot-pounds of energy in .45 caliber! The .45 cal Texan and Texan LSS are both over 700 fpe and the Carbine and SS are now up to 600 fpe. This is nuts!
This increase in power is due to the combination of the new TX2 valve, which has been standard on the recent .45 cal Texans, and the new carbon fiber bottles that are able to handle pressures up to 3625 psi (250 BAR).
This translates into extreme knockdown power with very heavy slugs and if you are shooting moderately heavy projectiles like Nielsen 290 and 350 grain slugs you will have a much flatter trajectory, giving you more wiggle room when ranging a animal.
The tanks are available separately but if you buy the CF version of the Texan you save a lot of money, so pick one up now and start sending lead down range!
