I converted my Pathos Laser Open Carbon to an inverted fusion roller using an MVD roller ram -- one of the best configurations in my opinion -- the shots are so smooth and very accurate.
Yep, saw your older video and have been rigging mine like that since I got the gun. One thing I found was that if you use dyneema that is to thick the knot where you tie onto that spear becomes to large and it gets caught in the roller head and somehow snaps off that thin bit of plastic under the roller head. There must be a heap of power and force at the roller head.
ya it's very powerful so it's important that the shooting line is perfect every time. I use a "rapala" knot on my dyneema shooting line. I've never had any hold ups at the muzzle. I also always use the hole through the spear that goes into the cassette. I like that the dyneema takes up some of the lateral play and keeps the spear centralized.
Did the newer version with side line release fix the top pin issue? Users using mono having issues with the line slipping when double wrapped, hence why the Ermes kit upgrade offered previously.
Ive never had an issue with the pin drop, ive also used triple wrap with no issue. Ive tried the side line release it carry the wraps fine. I still.prefer pin drop mech its super compact and i like how the shooting line sits against the handle. A side release is always prone to damage.
Depends what your use will be. It all depends what you hunting, and is it for competition or just day to day. I think a 100 with 2 x 14 is perfect for a all round gun with a 7mm shaft. Also consider a 1 x 17.5 or 18mm with 7mm shaft for fast reload and medium power for dirty water.
