    I have a slight problem with a bow gun interfering with the placement of the bottle. I can make a longer uptube from the Tee and the angle would clear the bottle, but am I decreasing performance from the gun? Other than a little longer for the BB to travel, any real performance issue?

    A little longer like 1/2" or 3"?
    Most of my A turret sidemounts are angled to avoid the bottle.
    Most of my B turret or haymakers have a 2.5-3" upfeed.
    Those guns work fine.
