Thanks Alan. Some good ideas here.I'll offer up another alternative, but sticking with the same compressor choice. I do this based on what you seem to be after - knowing you will get a good compressor and not having to deal with any service issues. That has a such a compelling need for you that in your case you are already willing to pay more than "fair market value" for a new compressor to be assured of the result. The idea is simply to expand the market in your quest.
This forum is full of good, reputable people that (in my opinion) "churn" through products, always seeking to upgrade. I bet there are many here with CS-4s that have either already bought a bigger or faster compressor (like the K1/K2) or who would love to do so. You could post a WTB (want to buy) on the classifieds with your story and offer to pay reasonably close to the price of new for a proven but not abused CS4 from an appropriate seller, maybe even with stipulation that there must be previous posts on this forum the results with the given compressor (so you can read about that very unit you are buying - I've done that with airguns) . Given how much people post their experiences here, that still leaves a lot of potential sellers . . . . but it could take time.
It might take a while, but if you are OK waiting a bit (and still using the dive shop) you might get exactly what you want. Worst case, your would have lost a bit of time and could still go down the path you are are now . . . . and I don't know if it would violate the rules, but you could maybe even "advertise" that you are doing this in posts on this sub-forum, linking to a legitimate WTB offer in the classifieds (given that people point to classified adds in other posts when people are talking about an item they want).
ThanksLou, I’ve got to be honest with you because this was the match that I was hoping not to read the results of. I saw Joe’s last two scores looming in the shadows and I figured when he posted his 3rd match that he would instantly move everyone down the leaderboard and boy I was right, arrrrggggghhhhh. I hate it when I’m right.… Congrats on another fine match Joe.

Which one was in your drs?It looks different than the one that came out of my drs
AHHHH the obligatory foot , perfect !
No, i do not...I opened package from Airforce installed. sorry...Prob a standard american size..Everthything else on Airforce standard sizes not metric...@RM.510bigbore Do you recall the size of the o-ring?
Yeah I use the ballistic tables on mine all the time. I don’t have the LFR version but I have found that I can dial the tables in really well on the app. Just change it to g7 and convert the bc… honestly it’s accurate enough I’ve used it to prove a chrono I was using was inaccurate. It was saying my slugs were almost a 100fps slower than they were.It does have the table capability, I just wouldn't want them to have it require Bluetooth. With the radios off its actually very good on battery life.
I will try to educate myself more. Thanks.Pressure creep is caused by surface imperfections in the regulator's valve seat (wear, or damage, or machining marks). Many times it can be fixed by fine wet sanding. Again, there are links in my profile that go into with more depth.
I’ve been eyeballing that Skout for awhile. I too really like .25 cal and that Skout looks incredible. Have you tried any of the altaros slugs out of it?I absolutely love testing and shooting slugs, especially .25, as some of you here on AGN remember. Slugs, barrels and airguns have improved leaps and bounds, especially over the last 3-4 years! And... There's a lot more cool stuff coming in the next year! It's a great time to be a slug shooter!
Here are my favorite slug airguns. All exceptionally precise to at least 275yds, the M3 to 350yds and the Skout/Corbin combo to over 400yds! I'd call 8/10 on ground squirrels at 405yds pretty damn precise and capable!
1. Skout Epoch .25, custom 35" slug barrel, Corbin 48.8gr at 990fps.
2. FX Impact MK2 .25, prototype 1:16" slug barrel, Zan 37gr at 995fps.
3. FX Impact, 700mm, M3 .22, 1:16" slug barrel, Zan 30.5gr (.218") at 1040fps or Altaros 32gr at 940fps.
4. RAW HM1000x .25 in a MPA chassis, LW 1:24" barrel, Varmint Knocker 32.8gr at 975fps or Zan 33gr at 980fps.
5. Huben GK1 .22 pistol, not a traditional slug airgun but it shoots lightweight Zan 20gr or ARG 21gr slugs exceptionally well inside 50yds!
