Title: Changing end caps
Post by: sugarray on April 04, 2012, 11:05:53 PM
I bought a new end cap at GM that has a swivel stud.

If I change the caps, tighten down 3-4 clicks, do you think my POI will change?

What kind of gun?

Thanks,

No, I have done it several times with no problems. But I shot them afterwards just for piece of mind!!!

I have a similar question.
I took off my barrel to clean it after my final dial in and when I put the barrel back on, the marks to line up were hard to see. I think I am close to where I was but not positive.
Think I'm ok?

It's doubtful but anything can happen with turkey guns. I'd shoot one shell just to make sure you're still where you need to be.
