I have the Talon. It is great. It's in 22 calibre and I use a scuba tank to fill the reservoir, which acts as a shoulder stock. The velocities are adjustable and this is a useful feature. The velocities are high enough that, pure lead pellets, will strip out on the rifling, at higher velocities.
It is also fussy about pellets. Mine likes "Diabolo Exact" 15.8gr pellets. They are hard enough to take engraving from the lands, without stripping. They are also extremely accurate.
These pellets are lethal on crows, grouse and gophers out to 65+ meters.
There is a nice bonus with reservoir powered rifles. They don't require specially built scopes. I had a springer (Anschutz) and it devoured even high end scopes. The recoil from a springer, is reversed, because of the piston moving forward. Most scopes are built to take recoil from muzzle blast and barrel/bullet friction, in the opposite direction.
The Condor you are looking at will use any scope available and not bother it one bit. Now, one other thing about scope mounting. You will require a special mount, not usually supplied with the rifle. The mounts are available off the Beeman site. Hand pumps are available but require a lot of energy. Scuba tanks, not certified for divers, can be picked up cheaply, about the same price as a pump.
Reservoir rifles have another quirk. A lot of people don't like it. As the tank is depleted, the pellets lose velocity. This is where the pump comes in handy. If you are hunting grouse, it will shoot about 30 rounds without much velocity loss. Then, it is an easy fix to pump the pressure back up at camp. The same goes for the scuba tank. As it empties, pressure, transferred to the rifle reservoir drops. This can be controlled to a point with a regulator but I like to get as much velocity and pressure into a tank as possible, within safe limits.
Springers have a lot of advantages. Their main problem is for weaker, older, younger shooters. They may not have the strength to easily operate the lever. As far as price goes, all things being equal, quality etc, there is very little difference.
