It was lower drop =3D slower rep speed, and higher check =3D less power.=20 Cheers=20 RicB=20 Jim Busby wrote:=20 Richard,=20 This is exactly what started this thread, and after my visit with Eric=20 Schandall and repinning to 4 grams with higher checking things are=20 working wonderfully.

The key=20 seems to be to pay careful attention to the rep spring strength. No=20 bouncing, jerking, etc. but a firm rise w/o a jump.=20 Jim Busby BYU=20 -----=20 Richard West wrote ::=20 ....
