We know 8 hole mods do nothing to improve performance, but do they negatively effect performance?
In late 95 my team was new to the tournament scene. Our entire team was outfitted with Mags because of advice given by upper level tournament players. So when we were looking for ways to improve the performance of our Mags, one of the guys that was helping struggle threw our first tournaments suggested an 8 hole mod, we never second guest him. Myself and a few others went to a local machinist and had him drill out regs. Well from the very beginning I knew it was a waste of money because I didn't see an improvement. After the mod was done, it seemed like the velocity was erratic and that some performance was lost. I have often wondered if I was imagining the loss off performance like some that perceive a gain in performance, or is it possible there was no change at all?
Any ideas?
