Shot great first group out of box then went to poot. I think for one it was short a baffle in the qe system. I ordered a 3d printed one piece baffle off eBay. Before installing I took off the nut on the end of the barrel that holds the shroud. What a stupid design in my opinion. You have that one nut piece that tightens on the end of the barrel that holds the shroud in place. So if the shroud flexes at all that stress is right on the end of the barrel which will certainly move it. Really seems dumb. Anyway I retightened it , installed the baffle and it shoots really well now. After sighting in I was smacking my 1” spinner at 37 yards every time. Gun came non leaking and looking like new. Out of box pushes 25.39 at 850. Nice gun for 300 shipped.

If you can "flex" that last 7" of the QE shroud you are putting massive pressure on it, that's all I can say. If it moves at all under "normal" usage (ie not dropping it off a 6' ladder) then the nut is not tight enough.
