I call shens until further proof is made available

CJ, what has been your experience with under boring with your stock barrel?

say just running a .679 full time?

What size sizer comes with the redux out of the box, or does none come?

Running TyMcNeer's 0.675 caliber brass insert, always.

I also have his 0.680 but haven't used it yet. I'm getting rid of the 0.679.

That sizer gives you best efficiency/ velocity? What's your avg fps per shot with that?

Have a cruise around the Redux forum Shadawg! You've got a lot of reading to do.

Start here: Forty Seven

I haven't fired a shot through the extended barrel yet, just the standard barrel.

To answer your question: paint in this area is about 0.677-.680.
A 0.675 insert is slightly under-bored, prevents roll-outs and maintains efficiency. I shoot for about 275fps.

There are far more variables at play than just bore to paint matching; springs used, powertube, valve insert. Adjust any one of them and everything else changes.
