Irish Lurcher 1,013 Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 Just wondering if any of you lads have tried out the T8 on a rifle. I just got a 223, which is doing the job on charlie, but I want to know how to fit the bushen that slips over the barrel. It seems to be a tad tight, any info. Quote Link to post
rifleshooter 0 Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 at one time i didnt think moderators were worth the money until a shooter i know showed me the result of having one fitted to his 243 & the difference from having & not having was very good, that was it i purchaced a t-8 and had it fitted to my 223 by a competent gunsmith although it was a little expensive it was well worth the money , would recomend one to you ,but get it fitted by a good gunsmith Quote Link to post
v-max 2 Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 Hello i work 2 T8's 1 on a 22.250 & a 25/06 i wpould like a jetz or a pes but they work for me just now.I seem's your rear bush is to small for it to slip over the barrel. Quote Link to post
Irish Lurcher 1,013 Posted November 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 Lads got the T8 fitted today, was out tonight for a quick shot, worth every penny, class. The other half can hear the shots from the house, but not tonight. Charlie beware Thanks. Quote Link to post

Irish Lurcher 1,013 Posted November 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 Lads When zeroing in the scope should I have the T8 fitted to the rifle??????? Having problems with zeroing it in since I fitted the T8. Quote Link to post
nutshot 0 Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 'IRISHLURCHER you should definately have the 't8 on when zeoring in as fitting any moderator will change the point of impact.if the mod has been fitted correctly you should find it easier to group with your gun [reduced muzzle flip etc] if in doubt have a good gunsmith check things over for you ; threading on barrel ; crown etc also try checking the barrel is still floating as a mod can sometime cause the barrl to touch the stock ; hope this helps you. ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''goodluck let us know how you get on Quote Link to post
David 9 Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 Ive just put my 243 in to be threaded for a t8, i got told to pick it up on saturday sounds like they make a hell of a difference cant wait to get out with it Quote Link to post
Irish Lurcher 1,013 Posted November 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 (edited) I was out last night and got nothing, could have let off rounds all night just to hear the T8 at work. Edited November 28, 2006 by Irish Lurcher Quote Link to post
rifleshooter 0 Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 i went out the other night when i got three fox's,and had a johnny trod moment and forgot to put the t-8 back on the remi after cleaning it , forgot just how loud it was without it ,luckily the wind was quite strong so it took the sound away a bit Quote Link to post
Irish Lurcher 1,013 Posted November 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Foxshot how do you clean your T8? Or that matter how do the rest of you T8 users clean them?? JR Quote Link to post
rifleshooter 0 Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 well i just give it the ocasional spray inside with gun oil and let it stand , i have noticed though that after a while there is fouling that builds up inside and it rattles about inside the moderator ,but after a few shakes it all seemes to be removed Quote Link to post
Guest colin.223 Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 Quick spray of wd40 seems to do the trick and store it off the rifle Quote Link to post
