Keep in mind, fellas, Ernest told me the long extension was designed for the pressure tube to stop just short of a standard moderator on the 600 and 700mm barrels
The only wildcats that will require an extension on the barrel shroud are the compacts, with the use of either the short or long air tube extensions. A DonnyFL adapter that is like 2” long will be required, or switch over to a Hugget Snipe moderator.
The only way to be able to go past the moderator with the air tube and still clear the moderator by like a 1/16 to an 1/8”, is with the use of a Hugget Snipe moderator or a moderator of the same diameter. Currently on my 25 cal MK2 with 600mm barrel, with the Ernest Rowe long extension my air tube stops just over halfway into my Hugget, and still not touch.
if I get greedy for more power I’m going to add the shorter extension at the rear, along with the longer extension up front. I’m prepared to extend my barrel shroud with a DonnyFL adapter that goes from M20 to 1/2-20 and all I would need to do is swap out the end cap on my Huggett to 1/2-20 female thread.
Still playing with my current tune of 1001 FPS with the 28 grain Barracuda Hunter extremes, to keep seeing how it performs. I like the compactness of the 600mm barrel, so I may just leave it as is.
HUMA MOD 30 moderators will also perfectly fit the Wildcat Compact when using the Plenum extension
