Hey KSK,
In hindsight, I may have misread the Ace box top containing the gun screws sizes (Edit 8-40 & 10-32 see pic below).

I simply measured the only slotted, pancake screws in the Gun Smith screw box.
The 5 mm screw replacements screws measured .182” (5mm=.196”), while the 4 mm hole was filled with a pancake screw measuring .156”.

Now the screws don’t look perfect, like in MDriskills pics, but they look better than almost all other fixes

.

I did all (9) my HW’s today

Buy it! You will not regret the purchase.i have a 22 caliber and it's a Lazer with jsb 18.13 and aea pellets.

I also tune reg, hammer then valve for final tweaking. I have the same gun/barrel length/caliber (superior barrel). Shoot the 18gr pellets with reg set at 70bar 900fps and the 27gr H&N hp 970fps reg setting 135bar. All factory equipped.

Gerry52 hit the nail on the head. O-rings require 2 dimensions the inside diameter and the cross section. All O-rings are listed and stocked on these two dimensions. KISS does still apply, if we specify the ID and the cross section the OD is redundant. There are a couple more things we need to know beyond the two critical dimensions.
Compound: Most O-rings are Buna-N, also known as Neoprene.
Durometer: The "hardness" of the O-ring compound. O-rings for high pressure applications may be "harder" to resist extrusion.
There are right about one zillion O-ring compounds

hyperbole alert but there are actually thousands of different O-ring compounds. For our airgun purposes the vast majority will be Buna N.
IMO I would rather pay double or triple the price for the O-rings from the gun manufacturer, just to assure those couple of other specs are correct. Double the price on an O-ring might make it a dime rather than a nickel.

Underrated post.

Also, instead of new stocks, or besides them, can we get an externally adjustable regulator?

You missed the Houston Area Field Target Association that operated in the early 90's and had events with good numbers as far as participants go. My place was the location of Central Texas Airgun Club events in its early days. The range is completely different since then. Those lanes are not even in use anymore. The facility has expanded. This is an independent group, and not affiliated with AAFTA.

Excellent !!

Taipan Slash will have a .30 Cal....

It worths to gives follow up.

It will be powerful and, if Taipan continues with tradition, super accurate......

That one can be a super alternative.

Thanks Ranchibi.

Emu, you're welcome! That Taipan Slash looks wicked plus it will come in .30, perfect for your hunting needs!

Thanks. I assume 1/8G another name for British standard straight pipe thread with a 1/8" bore.

I got a tin with each of my SPA guns. None of my guns like them. 2 of the 3 looked beat up. I like SPA guns but not SPA pellets.

I am trying to get the max fps out of my Mk2 PP 25 cal (with a slug power kit) & have turned the hammer spring screw so far in that one side has come out of the hammer adjuster it also seems to be backing out so i have put some nail polish to stop it.

Good on ya!

At the end of last summer I was working on a tune to have my rifle shoot heavy pellets and lighter slugs. Got to say that a whole lot of air and lead was pushed through that gun barrel before several seals and the regulator failed. I must admit the tuning process though tedious is very interesting: working to get all the parts and pieces working together just so. . . .

MOE.LB · Apr 14, 2025

I work a lot, around 10 hours daily. And it gets a bit boring and stressful. The airgun I got acts as a stress relief. I just open my window and shoot into my backyard, it helps release all the built up pressure to be honest. I plink and shoot paper. But I hunt birds when in season and control pests as a bonus when possible.

There are inexpensive pic rails that will fit a M-lock rail .. the one hinder might be the length of the screw needed to secure the m-lock
When i attached one to the rail on my Skout, the scews were too short ..easy fix, but be aware

Aftermarket will take care of the butt. For the price, RTI should have been on that from first reviews.

They shooter well.

Trucker3573 · Apr 10, 2025

Is the original 177 Beeman chief accurate like the .22 is ?

Took the RTI Mora in 25 cal out to shoot 100 yards today with AEA 29.6 grain pellets. After having only marginal success with the 33.9 grains, I decided to jump to a different pellet weight. Well, you gotta love it when a plan comes together. I decided to use the same basic settings as I had been playing with for the 33.9 grain pellets. The problem I had with the 33s is that they would randomly throw a flyer or two out of about every 10 shots. When I say flyer, I mean they would drift off my POA by anywhere from 1/2 MOA to 1 MOA which in 100 yd benchrest is as much as a 2 point drop in score. This happened consistently regardless of the speeds I tried. Every tune I tried from 900 to 970 fps would throw these random flyers and they were truly random without any consistent pattern. These are the same 33.9s that produce incredible consistency when shot out of my Skout Epoch .25. But, for whatever reason, the Mora simply doesn't seem to get along with them, so I jumped down to 29.6s not particularly hopeful that anything would change. Boy, was I wrong. The Mora and these 29.6 apparently have a love affair that I couldn't have guessed at. Although I'm not particulary impressed with my standard deviation numbers, I really can't complain considering the POI results.
It appears that the 975 tune was the optimal number in all aspects
All of these use the same 120 reg pressure and the differences were tuned via the dwell valve adjuster.

Target #1 scored as a 238 @ 8X @ 975.3 fps 3.2 sd
Target #2 scored as a 235 @ 2X @ 978.7 fps 3.6 sd
Target #3 scored as a 231 @ 6X @ 981.2 fps 4.5 sd

*** It's important to remember that although I'm considered a decent shooter, I'm not anything special so my results can pretty much be expected by anyone who shoots with any regularity.

The PEEK I ordered had no issues with initial sealing. Standard porting, dream valve. Very pleased overall.

any difference compared to oem poppet?
lower fps, same, higher?

Most SCBA'S use a CGA347 fill adapter, about $50 on Ebay. Look for one that's hand tightening (like the picture above). They've served me well for 8 years.
If you could show a pic of the tank valve & threads it would help (but it probably a CGA347).

I have a MSA CF tank and your right most do use the CGA347. https://a.co/d/6393Ref I have been using this same one for 3 years.
