These are from my WinApex 50. Ive always loved the gun but blowby has been a bit more than i like. Its basically the same as a CVA Kodiak Pro stainless. Several Kodiak owners seem to have similar blowby from the factory plug and drop action.
The plug was pretty dirty Lehigh liner set a bit below flush, flash hole enlarged and primer pocket shimmed.
Talk about clean with basically any primer. This gun has never left a primer this clean even just firing only a primer. Even with the modded CVA plug without a shim for tighter head space. Rem STSs were terribly dirty before this mod.
All primers are well within reasonable levels, even the cheap Nobel 209/686. My LGS sells them for about $24/1000. Edit now $25/1000.
Now i just need to try some Cheddites. he sells them for abour $22/1000.
Edit $29/1000 for the Cheddites. Price went up?
Ron made this one and another for me. Im going to try the other one which is a bit tighter in the Accura. I will report on that one after the Sunday range session.
Excellent job Ron. This is by FAR the cleanest this gun has ever fired a primer. :yeah:
If you need more details about his mod you will need to ask him since im not sure of the exact specs.
