Wanted: John Bowkett tuned Meteor

[Shed tuner]

It remains a mystery to me,maybe it's the sunflower oil used on the piston seal?.

Strangely all the chopped early Meteors I've had produce good power compared to the standard length.

Inertia on firing opening the breech slightly perhaps?.

that's a really interesting theory... upping the detent spring tension should work too...

yep, just started reloading for it
