Dave,

Thanks for posting the results. Keep plugging away. I think a 6.9x is in the bag with some good cool crisp air.

Are you keeping track of weather conditions for comparison? What was the DA for those runs?

What pump and how much vacuum are you pulling? What ratio are you driving the pump? Are you running a bleedoff valve?
