Couldn’t the change in his groups also have been contributed to by a 10-15 fps change in velocity? i think I might go back to the 980-985 fps of the previous groups and see if they tighten back up a bit. What prompted the change to 970 fps?

Wow... that's impressive!

I've only had DonnyFL moderators, and I've always thought they were very good. I think the air stripper in my Evo (.22 cal) may do well at stripping excess air from destabilizing the pellet, but I am not real impressed with the sound moderation. I can't imagine what a .30 would sound like. I...

That rifle looks really SHARP! Which DonnyFL did you go with? I'm looking at the Yokozuna w/QD. I like the modular design in case it's still a little loud in .30 cal, you can always add another baffle.

That's a great report to hear! That black finish is indeed SHARP! I'm definitely excited to hear back how she shoots and see some targets. What moderator are you going with?

This is very comforting for me to see. I have full faith in Skout based on the service I've personally received, and what I've heard others have received. What I would like to see is the conditions under which the particular barrel I receive achieved sub-moa results before leaving the factory...

After a very deep cleaning with patches wet with Ballistol, followed by dry patches, I had very good results polishing with JB Bore cleaning compound, wet with Kroil penetrating oil. I used the felt cleaning pellets on the 3-pellet threaded adapter for a Dewey rod from Browning (even though the...

The HAM article indicates that consumers will be able to buy barrels directly from Sub-MOA. Did anyone do that? Until reading that I assumed everyone indicating they had purchased or were waiting for their delivery of a Sub-MOA barrel had purchased it from Skout. I assumed that would be the...

I see what you're saying, Scott, and I empathize with it. I am not knowledgeable enough to do much more than i already have, and that's just trying to illustrate the Patent Office sometimes issues patents on things it interprets as different when the common public sees them as the same. Also...

Very good post. I tried for a patent once, and there are several factors in play that I think very few people are considering or aware of. I didn't even get past the patent lawyer research phase. It's grueling, and the US Patent Office does NOT issue patents without exhaustive investigation...

To be fair in this discussion, Centercut did mention somewhere that he knew of four (I think it was four) others who had this barrel and they were superb shooters. However. if that's six data points, 1/3 are less than desirable. Not too good for the price of this barrel.

My quick and dirty response is was the rifling cut and the barrel shipped with or without any follow-up bore prep to reduce bore tooling marks/artifacts? To me, follow-up bore conditioning is the hallmark of a premium or upgraded barrel (this is an opinion, not a fact). It may not be a custom...

I'm a little concerned to hear this as I'm looking to order the .30 Sub-MOA barrel for my EVO as well. This seems like it might be at least a second data point for this situation. I think Centercut had a similar issue. May not have been the same root cause, but he was simply put, not happy or...

Any new word on this? I'm going through a similar issue now. My AV 4500 fills up to about 4000 psi, then just runs and won't pressurize any higher. I have HP seals arriving today, along with other parts that might be needed. Just wondering of this was ever fixed and what the root cause was.

That really bright round circle you see when looking up above you is not the sun shining through a thick and dark overcast, it's the opening to the rabbit hole my friend and you have fallen down it! Don't worry, though, there's a ton of us down here, and we all know how to get back out... we...

Very nice! Congratulations! I'm sure you'll be very happy with your choice. I will give you two pieces of advice, based on my small amount of personal experience thus far with a Skout air gun. First, I think the digital gauges I upgraded to may have been a significant factor in the...

Well said. Such a basic concept missed by so many.

Yeah, I really want the adjustable benchrest butt pad as well. "Is getting the Evo over the Epoch worth it?" For me, when getting my FIRST Skout I definitely think so, but that's because of one of my priorities... solid barrels. The electronics upgrade features (larger OLED screen, more...
