Be very careful when cleaning/reassembling the Spectre. Ensure that the channel notches on the baffles line up PERFECTLY when reassembling. I have found on mine that the slightest variance in this will start spraying rounds and not from baffle strikes. Also I would suggest making a position mark in white paint ,etc to maintain correct "tightness" of the suppressor to the pistol once you get it shooting it's best groups. (Think timing mark on an engine) Also check the depth of the threading on the Ruger. The Spectre does not do well on threading that is over .400" in length due to potential baffle strikes. For this very reason I have to run a spacer washer on mine when shooting it on my 10/22's.

Enjoy....looks like a great set-up

I have the same setup and agree with above, makes me wish I went with the sparrow instead of the spectre. Plus the sparrow is a bit smaller.

Thanks for the useful suggestions, AUTimbo. I'd not thought of the witness mark, but it makes since.
