So apparently the Huma is at least as good as the oem reg., or even better according to your numbers.

The best solution to my dilemma is to save for a .25 shorty, hoping they become available in a few months.

Foxback, Not bad. Even thirty shots at that power is more than 30% of what I am getting with my current maxed tune. I hope your shorty’s inactivity is only due to inclement weather :winkn:.

Its 23″ is the reason why I opted for it and not the standard. I am short, plus quite frequently I need to walk 1 to 3 miles to get to a good site.
