Somehow I typed up a reply but it got lost in space.
The gist of my reply was that the test clip media was ~20% lower due to too much tension - slightly bend the clip to reduce tension and the measured force would be closer to the ATF.
That sent me down the rabbit hole that ATF tension had a fairly large effect on measured cut force.
If I lose this one I'm going to bed as I also have elevated BP. Thanks for all the replies to my previous post.
