The easiest solution would be to use a maple leaf hop rubber and the "I' key with factory bar. It will provide a solid downward pressure.

A small piece of thicker gas-fitter tape across the top, not wrapped, will also reduce how far the pressure fingers penetrate into the bucking dents, essentially shimming it in a way that still applies the same downward pressure to the same two spots and doesn't deform the rubber. Don't over do it.

You can also try picking up ONLY the "I" key and trying it with the stock rubber as a test platform before buying another bucking.

Set it, shoot it and let us all know how it works for you.

WHat is the said I-key ? is it a maple product? Originally i have been advised to put a vsr maple bucking in there. It shoots with better consistency. I did shim it with a small plastic piece, but witin a game the plastic shim will move and not be under the Tensionner anymore.

The factory bar is the item that will pull the tensionner right?
