Has anyone adjusted the cover of the 44 Mag, to change the breakpoint?

Wow...the cover prep is "2000 smooth"? For some reason I thought the box condition has some kind of light polish or really high grit of sanding on it as my 44 looks lightly polished and so does the other 2 that I've seen.
Did Dyno change the coverstock prep after the test balls were sent out or am I just not understanding what "2000 smooth" means?

2000 grit is pretty fine. It will have a lightly polished look, even when there's no polish on it. My Mutant is 1500 grit and right after I had it resurfaced, it looked lightly polished.

yeah...I have a 2000 grit zr40 and it looks almost identical side-by-side with a polished zr

Yeah. You know, I had a guy in Jackson county. He had a little drum circle in his backyard. It turned into a drum circle four miles in diameter. You get a few hippies playing drums and next thing you know, you got yourself a colony.

Great! Green scotch brite was the answer. Reads nicely now in moderately heavy oil.
Thanks

Yes. 2000 grit is very fine, and will naturally have a polished look to it. But it's not polished. But on heavy oil, it just doesn't compare to the EPX-T1. Oil gets into the ball regardless, it absorbs into all the microscopic pores in the resin. The EPX-T1, you just give it a hot water bath and gobs of oil just float to the surface and presto, it's like new. The 44 Magnum can't compare and won't last as long.

I know. But not ten minutes prior, he posted the same "EPX-T1 is teh greatest evar" "review" that he's posted a dozen times already.

over rated in my opinion, and a mess trying to drill a used one with the oil oozing out of the ball while trying to align it in the jig.

Now the Animal. There was a heavy oil ball. Of course it can't compare to the EPX-T1 either. And it would die in like, 10 games, even when I gave it a hot water bath.
Maybe this should just die a quiet, peaceful death.
