    The barrel extension from XTX is nothing to do with shrouds etc. It is exactly the same diameter as the barrel, look on his website, I have one on my Scorpion T10 looks ok and allows me to fit a normal silencer, but as I recently put a longer air cylinder on my Goldstar SE I bought a Parker Hale silencer, they are the only slim one I know of and at £24.99 I'm sure it will be much cheaper than considering changing the barrel.
    As far as shot count goes I cant answer that as my Scorpion is Tench regged and my Goldstar SE is BSA regged but if your current cylinder is as I suspect 250mm long and you buy the 325mm cylinder you should get 37% more shots from it. Best deal on air cylinders I found was Airtech.

    Thanks lads, for correcting my false assumption, and for your other observations.

    My .177 Scorpion se has the larger 325mm cylinder fitted and a regulator.
    From 200 bar down to 100 bar i'm getting 120-130 shots. I'd get more if I took it down to the pressure the regulator is set at but with that shot count ive no need.

    *edit*
    I got around the silencer issue by fitting a 27mm shroud with built in air stripper. Its even quieter than before when I had the HW silencer on it.


    regards

    Where did you purchase the shroud?
