The target is at 96Y, and the muzzle velocity is 845FPS.

I have seen much more spiraling shots when the gun is in the stock configuration, 933FPS. That instability is more related to the speed instead of pellet itself.

Make a snapshot or note of those washers if you plan to open up the regulator, the orientation matters. I made a mistake there.

Keep in mind that the baffle nut is very important, it reinforces the gloating barrel a lot like no others, it influences the harmonics a lot. We need it there, and Ed wants it to be there.

I don’t know where it will be landed in one-piece scenario.

Since you know there is a inside-thread at other end.

The potential issue I can foresee is the alignment, which is defined by how good the stock endcap is, which is used to abutt and reinforce the new extension. Any solutions?

Another potential issue is the length of new thread, is it long enough? I think it is ok.
