not holding off.... just that nothing tickles my fancy

wake me up when the FX pistol shows up

I have migrated most of mine to .30 as that is the largest caliber I shoot. The difference in sound signature and air stripping seems to be far more affected by the volume of the can than by the diameter of the through hole.

To this I must add another thing that shocked me in it's counter intuitive results. I had a larger shroud with an air stripper and a ronin on the same gun. A huge amount of expansion volume, and the yokozuna is as quiet or quieter with less volume and some pretty intense baffles. It blew my mind.

With Donny FL, they recommend that one goes ONE SIZE up when using the QD mount.

For example, if you shoot .25, go .30.

Two questions:

1. Anyone here use the QD and use the proper-sized moderator rather than going one size up? For example,if you have .22, you use .22 with the QD rather than .25.

2. Generally, my understanding is that one wants the smallest aperture (hole size) possible for maximum moderation. Any sense of whether it is noticeable reduction in moderation going from a .25 to a .30?

Thanks.

I use a qd on a 22 yokozuna on a 75 fpe 22. I haven't had any baffle strikes and I'd like to think I'd notice if I did at that energy. 1 up is safe and ads some diversity to the mod. I did notice on a home brew mod that it counterintuitively got quieter as I increased the bore diameter to .3125 for a 22 semi auto that has a tone of muzzle blast.

I know I'm an outlier in my obsessive alignment if moderators with bore up to and including arbor shims or strips of shim stock and re tapping threads to a lesser tolerance spec to allow the wobble needed to straighten them out. As vetmx says, sometimes will power, tools and time are as much a blessing as they are a curse.

Sounds like Huben is working on a .30 for both their GK1 and K1 platforms.

So onboard with a .30 K1

Congratulations, my friend. Is this your first?
Loving the rifle. Those are some serious sights on there. I've always loved them. Unfortunately, my old eyes don't appreciate them like they used to.

Many thanks! And yep, she’s our first!

The sights are just great. Getting to turn all the knobs in changing light is quite satisfying

My daughter repaired 6 internet screw-ups. I couldn’t order my TbT, had no e-mail since March.
Before supper I shot this gem. A R7 .177. Doesn’t get much better. I think a cousin is coming tomorrow. Crow

nice , what distance is a normal spot on shot ?

Idk, you’d need to watch uk videos of this gun. Should be spot on at 20 yards. But check the videos, the 17 FPE American version is dead accurate at 49 yards.

Just got my Huben GK1 V3+ in .25. I see what all the fuss is about. With the mods I have into soft targets I'm seeing 86 to 88db at a 310bar fill. My optic is mounted in the middle of the top of the gun, I plan on using a stock and a pistol optic that far back in my face won't work. I also don't want to spend 60 on a rail adapter yet. But wow, what a nice gun!

Picking them off.
