tuner Vs suppressor Vs bare barrel anschutz 1710xlr

[@rustynut1967]

I have an EC Tuner Brake and tried it on my CZ 457. I shot some tiny groups while making adjustments but could not get them to repeat when going back to the setting. My opinion is, skip the tuner and put the money towards a quality barrel first. I enjoy your videos!👍Thanks.

Iv not had that with mine but I will test my settings with 5 rounds X6 targets for the average to check if there's a improvement But being a 22 some days it just throws a spanner in the works. Last night was shooting with the can on at 444 meters and it shot very well about a 9to 12 inch group best I could tell shooting onto a ploughed field

Excellent! Thanks!

I had same results with the same tuner. I took it off and my groups were better then using a tuner.

It was a odd one for sure it does normal tighten up a little but if left some doubts especially for that SK long-range match However with the ammo shortage in UK it has proven to be useful with ammo not so well suited to the rifle.

Good barrels do not benefit from a tuner, so I have found along with many others, that said, thin barrels can benefit as long as you have weights hanging out on the end of those light barrels behind the tuner, & even then the tuner is more of use as additional weight than to tune anything. I am convinced tuners are a form of insanity, & aptly called loony-tuners.....lmao !!

it seems that Anschütz do have some idea how to make a rifle.... pretty strange to have such horrible results with the tuner, but...ft0rom a physics viewpoint, hanging that much mass on the end of a relatively light, and long, barrel, can certainly cause it to behave wildly, if it is the least bit off the natural frequency of the 'bare' barrel...i have never seen anyone do a real high-speed analysis of barrel "harmonics" with, say, fast accelerometers, are a combination of a laser and high-speed camera (laser would need to reflect off a very tiny mirror on the barrel, and maybe imaged at 10 m, to get a magnified excursion...modern accelerometers should be sub-gram in mass, but wires add a bit...anyway, I'd love to do something like that, maybe get Eric Cortina, to machine a mounting point, or a mirror flat(s) on one of his tuners... hmm, might be able to use inductive or capacitive measurement, to avoid interaction with tuner/barrel masses...ideas developing in my little tiny brain... might be useful to someone developing/marketing suppressors/brakes/tuners, able to put some, OMG!, science to work!

......lol....sounds like you & cortina may be experiencing the same illness.....loony-tooners insanity.....lol, but, DEFINITELY agree on Anschutz knowing aliitle something about making complete rifles.

I mess with tuners all the time , on 22's only though, that said - tuners are a joke on centerfire's whether you handload or not, & that said, even though I mess with them on 22's only & just as you have proved, - they are a joke on 22's aswell.....lol......
