YES, CARM SSLs are great. I use one on my Dream-Tac and I love it. NO, CARM do NOT produce SSLs for STreamlines.

napairgunner, thanks for the reply re/ the Rowan SSL ! I'll go ahead and order one. I'm not a fan of single shot trays, this loader concept (what CARM adopted too) is way better and easier to use. And I'm glad to see that there are still SL lovers. Mine has performed flawlessly since day one. I...

Dumb question: does that occur when people crank up regulator pressure to 160+ bar, the HST to its maximum, and then dry fire once in a while? Every time people do that, the valve strikes the valve seat so hard that it could get damaged over time... Make sense?

Steve, I really like the way you work. This is in-depth analysis of each and every rifle you review in order to better inform us. People who complain about the accuracy of their rifle should consider taking enough/more time to tune their rig until they find the sweet spot. This often takes a...

Hi, I know CARM products. Unfortunately, CARM don't make SSL for the Streamlines.

Ah, it's just a personal choice. Not because it provides better accuracy, as I just don't know if that is the case. I really prefer to shoot this way. Loading a magazine is boring. And when I used one, it happened that I cycled twice and ended up with 2 rounds in the chamber. Not great :)

Answer to my own question: I bought the Magpul M-LOK rail (7 slots), which fits perfectly on the T-slots of the Saber Tactical rail.

Since my FX Streamline .22 is (still) amazingly accurate (she consistently shoots sub-moa groups at 50m), I think she deserves a SSL that is better than the FX Single Shot Tray. The CARM SSL that I'm using on my Dream-Tac is awesome. Unfortunately, they don't make one for the Streamline. I...

Love my SL .22 too. She shoots sub-MOA groups at 50m most of the time. Regarding the FX magazine, I agree that it is not great. I actually never use it, and prefer to use the FX single shot tray, which is not great either. Since CARM does not make a Single Shot Loader for the Streamline (the...

Rowan Engineering SSL for Streamline : Rowan Engineering Single Shot Loaders

Thanks for the answers. I'll likely give this FX harmonic barrel tuner a try, as I really like the concept "tune regulator pressure and HST for low ES at desired velocity; and then tune barrel harmonics for tight(er) groups".

On a Maverick, don't you have much more barrel support than on a Dreamline? Are you not using it anymore? Didn't get tighter groups with it?

Has anyone tested the FX removable harmonic barrel tuner on an FX Dream-Tac? The barrel needs to bear a significant extra weight (~190 g), and that makes me… nervous. I assume that using this tuner on a Dream-Tac is not even an option if the carbon fibre sleeve hasn’t been installed to stiffen...

This ST universal rail is a beautiful piece of aluminum ! Once installed on my Dream-Tac, I can move the Accu-Tac far forward and get more stability, which translates to better accuracy. Something Dreamline owners need to know though: a 0.5'' picatinny riser is required ! (I have used the UTG...
