Dye Migration on Camo t-shirts

I'm going to print a job on some orange camo t-shirts. I've read allot about these shirts having dye migration issues. I'm wondering if I will have an issues printing black ink on these. I will probably p/f/p just to be safe. Do any of you have experience with this. If so please offer any tips. I don't want to under base if it isn't absolutely necessary. Thanks for any replies.

You can see bleeding with camos even through black ink. PFP might help but I can't say for sure. We've printed black on camo without a base before and it was noticeable, but it was just one stroke with no flash.

We have done some testing on printing on Camo. We have use Rutlands's Dyno Gray as an under base with favorable results.

Well I did the job with a low bleed poly ink. I added a low cure additive to the ink so I didn't have to heat the shirt up as hot. I got some dye migration doing it that way. It wasn't much but there was some. The customer didn't care cause it really wasn't that noticeable. I will use the gray as an under base in the future.
