al4x Posted September 11, 2012 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 used to be through the dodgy decoying mob but I did hear their shop has closed down to focus on interweb sales which wouldn't be ideal for mods so maybe he has a new outlet.

Cheers for the speedy info - I had looked at their new site, with no joy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted September 11, 2012 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 I've got one on my .223 and they are ok but there are in my opinion better out there. My wildcat is easier to clean but heavier a bit depends what caliber its going on and how much weight is an issue. The wildcat is nice on my finnlight as it balances it up nicely when on sticks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frenchieboy Posted September 12, 2012 Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 You will not go far wrong by contacting Dave directly through the contact details that Archie1234 (Richie) will give you. Dave is a great bloke to deal with, his work (In my opinion) is second to none and he builds faultless moderators which are really good value for money! I too have his contact details if ned be.

DM80 Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 What,s the differance between DM80 MRK 3 CF and THE DM80S4 CF the DM80S4 CF looks a bit different and overall is better looking cosmetically, its also slightly smaller and lighter than the MK3 CF this is down to the S4's unique new baffle system which is very efficient, the MK3 CF mod was a good mod but the S4 overall is smaller lighter and a better performer it also comes in a compact version which will cater for cals upto .243/6mm this version only weighs around 450g the fullsize unit comes in at aroung 550g depending on cal etc. Dave.

Gerry31 Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 Just another silly question would a 243 mod work on a 22:250 or would I need 2 separate mods Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 yup you would be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM80 Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 Just another silly question would a 243 mod work on a 22:250 or would I need 2 separate mods as a rule all mods that i make are cal specific ie .22 would have an exit hole of 6.5mm and .243/6mm exit hole would be 7mm i always make mods exit thru hole 1mm oversize of the cal etc but if a customer wants a universal mod its no problem it can be done. dave.

phaedra1106 Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 Dave, I've emailed you 3 times since asking about a Mod I ordered in May and not had a reply, it's for a Howa 1500 with the heavy Varmint barrel in .308, I'll PM my email address to you.

station Posted September 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 Well after a couple of emails to finalise the spec i have ordered my moddy today. Also having an additional delrin rear bush so i can fit it to 2 rifles with different diameter barrels. Payment sent today and the turnaround should be 2 weeks. Really good guy to deal with so far so hoping to report back positively when it's ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
station Posted October 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Update - Well, Dave emailed me to say my moddy was ready last weekend so just over a week from order. I collected it Tuesday this week and put it through it's paces Wednesday evening. All I can say is 'WOW' - it ooozes quality, the finish is superb and attention to detail is first class. I had asked him to make it slightly different so it looks more like a barrel shroud and he did it exactly as I wanted it. As for performance then again superb and noticeably quieter than my Sak - this was confirmed by 2 other shooters as well. Also, I found out after seeing his cracking little workshop that he does repairs etc so he is chopping a barrel and re-threading it for me in a couple of weeks time. I like to give praise where it is deserved and I would recommend Dave Mercer to anyone seeking a moderator in standard form, or something a little different. Last thing to say is a massive thanks to the PW members that pointed me to Dave after their positive experiences. Cheers to all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SakoQuad Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Dave shortened and screw cut a barrel for me as well and I'd recommend him to anyone. His work quality and prices are excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
