Something that's always bothered me about that high speed vuurwhapen blog test video is that the ST-T2 they used was out of spec, weighing only 3.8oz. instead of the 4.1oz. (if memory serves) it's supposed to. Why they decided to do the test with an out of spec piece of equipment, that subsequently did not function very well (big surprise?) instead of sending it back and getting/using an in spec ST-T2 is beyond me and the resulting damning of the product should instead be a damning of the test first and foremost IMO.Originally Posted by tehpwnag3
I am an ST-T2 user, I have weighed it (4.1 oz. as it should be), and have had no problems with it or the rifle it is in.
Though, to be completely fair, I have not set up my own high speed video side by side comparison with multiple guns and buffers test, so I must admit to having only anecdotal evidence of credible performance at best
ETA: For the record, I am in no way shape or form advocating that anyone/everyone should use an ST-T2. I am only stating that I have yet to perceive any problems with the use of my ST-T2 that would warrent it's replacement by a standard weighted type of buffer. I also wonder why people that have switched out their ST-T2s for standard weighted buffers did so if the only reason was because of the results of the (faulty) video test.
