Nice work Baxter - a few questions. That moderator looks like its made from carbon fiber - is it? Does it effect fps and accuracy?
It's made of aluminium , and Delrin with a carbon fiber tape wrap, this is the very best way to keep cost down while doing a great job at making the rifle quite.

Does it effect fps and accuracy?It is definitely made of some sort of plastic polymer material. As far as accuracy I did not see a shift in my point of impact. I will be doing velocity tests with and without it I quipped.
Perhaps a tougher grade of Al could help to avoid the thread stripping issue?Assuming that the part that screws onto the 1/2 UNF 20 Tpi thread is not made of delrin, of course.
