In this video I am testing out the latest change in 3.23 ePTU for the stand alone salvage/repair gun as well as comparing it with the multi-tool salvaging and repairing functions. And I am really happy about these changes. What do you think? Enjoy!

That's not a bug. The "SRT Canister (Empty)" comes pre-filled, for your convenience.
You was looking at the distance to the ships center and not the part of the hull your was repairing. So most probably the small tool repairs at a distance from the hull of 4 to 5 meters and the larger one at 8 to 10 meters. That would explain what was happening.
