Hello Ham
I can shed some light on this issue. Early Sub Moa barrels have been honed on a vertical machine that is a very sophisticated and expensive piece of equipment. However the tooling and logic system is not ideal for small calibers ie 22 cal. So the machine struggles to understand what...
Thank you Tom.
AOA is offering these few rifles at a substantial savings before the HPS guns come on line full beans. The price on these will go up in a month or so. Sorry about the confusion HAM.
Rob CEO. AOA.
The solutions are two.
1. Don’t thread and have a higher chance of precision but less streamlined moderator install.
2. Thread and have an easy moderator install with the chance of lower precision.
Picks your poison.

It is pot luck really. The spec is 2 10k from breech to muzzle. Threads can move the internal dimensions out of spec. I agree with Cole. The other issue is the threads must be cut after the 1.25 diameter blank is turned down. This can also choke an otherwise perfect barrel. We have noticed...
Hello.
In our extensive testing threads on the muzzle end can only hurt precision. Please keep in mind. Sub Moa is undertaking a project of epic proportions. No other barrel maker in the world is manufacturing single point 5r cut rifling for airguns. To my knowledge. The process is arduous and...
Hello Ham
Sub Moa is six to eight weeks away from cutting slug barrels 1-16 twists in 22 for Ghost. Plug and play. Semi bull barrel with ZERO threads on muzzle. We will have a slip on adapter for moderator fitting. We have a LOT of R&D testing. We will have the best slug barrels for airguns. I...
They are available separately for 499.00. You get a free action. Sorry the cost of the stock which happens to be more that the difference in beech to walnut rrp has to be absorbed by the package price. The math would dictate a 595 retail but i am doing my best to bring them to everyone.

Hello Ham
We are so proud of the HW30NSE. This project is a year in the making. I love the HW30 rifle. This is the best OEM version in the rifle’s glorious history in my humble opinion. I hope you all appreciate this effort from all the parties involved to bring it to market. Not easy.
Rob.
Hello Ham
I will repeat my previous message concerning the price of the Carbon Gray versions.
They are priced as a loss leader. To bring in more buyers to the platform.
Rob.
Hello Ham.
I am happy to explain how we arrive at the prices of the different versions since I determine the pricing.
1. Our import cost from Daystate. Add shipping and duty tax, add liability insurance that covers the product and our customers. You would be wrong in assuming all importers...
Hello HAM
Western is constantly improving and upgrading. The barrel in the Rattler 357 and 45 short are coming with Sub Moa single point cut rifled and machine lapped as of November ish. There is always cross over as the TJ are used up. The Long strike is TJ.
The Sidewinder in all calibers is...
Hello
The only changes have been a carbon shroud in place of the alloy one on the early guns. Also small improvements are made to my understanding constantly. Spring quality, materials, finishing etc.
Rob.
Yes AOA and our dealers nation wide incurred a price increase. All products that we must pay in UK Sterling have been affected. This is in response to the weakening dollar against the pound Sterling unfortunately. The exchange rate is completely out of our control. I am sorry for the increase...
