Have been a little worried about the single mag it came with....How much clearance do the CARM mags need?
How many rounds before you change the breech o'ring do you folks think?
Wendell, this picture will give you an idea about clearance with the CARM Mags.
POI changing IS interesting but not a deal breaker if it stays in one place with the new mags.Am I understanding there is a standard capacity CARM? That'd keep me needing to use taller rings
Different mag should not change POI; unless:The pellets are mangled differently on loading;or positioning the pellet in the chamber differently;or, the mag is applying loads, spreading the receiver, and then moving the sights or the barrel. The latter seems unlikely, unless one mag seems very tight on insertion, compared to another.
I've noticed the change in POI with both my 177 and 22 when going between factory mags and CARM mags, pellets and slugs. The factory mags are very much pellet/slug manglers, so that's my theory.

Received my EBAY 8 shot Notos Mag this afternoon. Very close to the same size as the standard mag, maybe a couple mm taller, but will not require taller rings. Maybe not quite as much bling as the CARM mags, but mechanically it works the same. (will post pictures later) Only had time to load one mag and run them through the rifle, but all was good with that first 8 shots. The mag does not have a magnet, but fit is good with no play.
