The flash can on the front will help some but these short 8" barrels and supersonic bullets are real boomers. Subs with a suppressor are another story. The shooter doesn't really know how loud the gun is because all you hear is the action slamming back and forth next to your ear. Its a clack rather than a bang. The best part is no one nearby even knows a gun went off. They may hear something but its not like anything they would relate to a gunshot.

I've been called many a time, from friends that were hunting... "Can you come out here and help me track this deer down?..." ...and I've done it. Never been in a situation with them where I've not found that deer, too. This crazy "intuition" that I have for that later led to some military training that I got involved in, which was the accreditation of a "tracking course." @edgecrusher is probably the only other person here that I ever told about that... What a badass curriculum that was... Whenever you guys need a downed critter tracked - I'm that guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARTrooper Posted February 24, 2019 Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 what's the farthest shot you would take on a deer with that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpete Posted February 24, 2019 Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 Considering I use my bow stands for sub hunting a shot over 30 yards would be rare. I wouldn't hesitate to stretch it to 50 if the right angle through the trees presented itself. The 40 yarder this year was just that situation. She walked past on my right side and went behind some trees and brush. I kept watching her and put the gun up when she started walking broadside to me. When her chest entered an opening between the branches I had the scope on her and pulled the trigger. When subs hit deer sides they sound like someone wearing leather mitts slapping their hands together. Thwack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wide Open, like you ride a 2-stroke, brother. Always start an adjustable gas block wide open. Make sure it cycles. What's your gas system on that 8.5? Gotta be pistol gas, and the gas port diameter will be well north of 0.100" already. It has to be - don't fear it, just do it...

98Z5V Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 It's simply amazing that I pulled that information straight out of my ass, considering this is what some people think about me... Look, here's the plain honest truth. There are a lot of people on various forums that like to make a lot of noise and don't really know what they are talking about. Its often a lot to wade through and a lot of people will mislead you and be very confident in doing so. Maybe I'm one of those people. Maybe this 98z5v guy is one of those people. I guess I just got lucky guessing that info, Jeff... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 (edited) Here's what the same guy thinks of me, and my findings on PSAs... Quote I'll tell you this much. Based on what I know and what I've seen on that site, there is a lot of noise but not a lot of solid information. This guys theory about the recoil buffer is pretty much just noise with a few minor tidbits of good info. It's off base and incorrect, and if a lot of misinformed people such as yourself put a lot of faith in his theory, well, so be it. Perhaps you'll be satisfied with his theory, perhaps you'll decide to do your own research and come to a different conclusion. Let me offer this: He offers absolutely no evidence that anything he is saying is correct. No measurements, no test results, nothing. He just says it in a big, loud way with a lot of cursing and posturing, and you automatically assume it to be so. There are a lot of very knowledgeable people on a lot of other sites, and no one on any other site besides this guy suggests that the issue lies primarily and specifically with the buffer being 1.5oz. underweight. No one except him suggests that there actually is no overgassing issue. He is of course the only one with the truth, everybody else is just too stupid to agree with him. If you buy that, well, have fun spreading that gospel. Edited February 27, 2019 by 98Z5V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sketch Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 i agree wide open in subs or other even canned. not a problem in my experience with 8" to 10.5" canned or not. 16" has no problem either way, its just fun to run. Wide open!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
