Are you using the liquid or powder Hi-Tek?
Im using the powder and getting 1230 fps from a 13" carbine barrel.
I like that black cherry. you know the old saying, "without pictures it never happened"
The black cherry has worked well for me. It's more forgiving in the actual coating process since it's a non metallic, and I also like that it just gets slightly darker if I bake a bit hotter or longer, which I sometimes do when I have a heavier weight bullet than what I used to dial in the numbers.
