I've got this .30 Impact setup for flinging slugs now and it's doing a phenomenal job IMHO.
It's been worked over pretty good, but is just a humble gen 1. Ernest did the port work and as you can see it's got the big bottle and 700mm slug barrel. It will go into FX to get the new plenum upgrade when my turn comes, but in the meantime I need to choose a slug for it. I've also got Neil Clague working on a new 1 piece shroud/LDC.
I bought a pack of each of the 65.5gr, 61.5gr and 54.5gr from NSA. All fit the FX mag. The 65.5 won't fit the Sideshot mag. The 65.5 seems a little slow in the 880s, the 61.5 is in the 910s and the 54.5 is in the 930s. The 65.5 seems to fit the FX mag the best and feeds the best. The others are kind of loose in the mag, not horrible, but not as nice as the 65.5.
I shot them all and the 61.5 and 54.4 are grouping under a dime at 75-85 yds with the occasional flyer. Didn't put much time into the 65.5gr, but it doesn't seem to perform as well. This may be the nut behind the trigger problem tho. Most of the time I'm punching the center out of the bull.
I've got the reg around 150bar and everything else turned up too.
Going down to an event on the 22nd and need to settle on a slug to buy in qty as we shoot all day there. Looking for some feedback from those of you who are into this HOT setup territory and what you find works the best.
Thanks in advance.
