Big shout out to Ernest

I received my tuned .25 R3M STD back from Ernest today. Man this gun is so sweet. I didn’t have a mag index problem but he made it a lot smoother and light. Before the cocking was very hard, where one hand was held firmly on the grip and pushing forward while the other hand pulled back on the bolt. Now I can relax around the grip and lightly cock it back with ease. He also fixed my breech o-ring problem. turns out that it required a bigger o-ring than OEM. Before I sent it to Ernest, I’ve replaced the o-ring twice. One blew out of the gun, the next it was still leaking air. With the Neil Clague shroud and LDC I can finally hear what everyone has been hearing which is the hammer slap and slight ping.

Dealing with Ernest has been very enjoyable and his work is very professional. My gun came with shot strings and data.

My regulator was set to 115 Bars
FPS set to 772 (33 fpe) but can easily increased to 880 (44 fpe)

During his test, he filled it to 205B and shot down to 115B

It yielded 54 shots

High 776
Low 767
ES 9FPS

After it fell off the regulator he was able to still get 17 good shots in until it reached 90B. So in total 71 shots. Imagine if I filled it up to 220B!

Overall I am very happy with the gun. He also changed out my HST adjuster to his brand new stainless steel one.

Thanks Ernest!
