Well, it takes like 10 minutes to get the gun apart and the valve out. The seat is a bit more work, but completely doable. Check to see if the valve is damaged or the seat is leaking. If you see nothing wrong, the oring on the seat is likely the culprit. I had two 400's and both of them eventually leaked at the valve seat oring, but once replaced, that was the end of the issue.
You need a small "L" shaped pic, with a smooth end to reach down inside and pull the seat out. Work your way around it to pull evenly, and it'll come right out. To replace it, find a wood or plastic dowel to push it back in place. It's not hard.

@bchannell 's choice of tools for the job is perfectly adequate.
However, if you have spare cash and are also a tool freak there is a specialty tool that aids in removing the seat as well as another that helps install the valve.
Cape Fear and Utah probably have them
This is not a recommendation.
Just a point of information

I've had nothing but great results with JTS 25.39 IN 25 and 16.08 in .22. Best results of pellets other than the FX 25.4s, 34s in .25 and 15.9s in 22

Anyone enjoying this particular optic? I’m thinking it rocks, but some of us would love feedback before we toss north of a grand at it.

Webley Eclipse. Pretty gun and I thought the loading gate was very clever. Trigger was not great however.

We talking about a barn sized tank? I think you got a chance or two lol

I couldn't hit that tank at 650 if I was inside it!

I took a shot against that white background and could see the pellet falling against it. I missed low by about 400 yards.

It was @Roachcreek that had the multi-compressed setup. It seems he hasn’t been around since last fall. I know he had health problems & was gradually going blind.

Dang - no roachcreek here for a while. Learned a lot from him, great guy - he had some pretty positive plans in spite of his eyesight failing - I don't know if any of that panned out, but I'm hoping he's enjoying himself somewhere!

Might try a hydraulic shop that builds high pressure hoses would be my bet.

Fill port is to tight. its compressing the gasket and closeing off hole.

@ Matt.
Btw. FWIW manufacturers actually ARE going to 2mm stems now. Just look at Snowpeaks new T-Rex series.
Uhu. On 2mm out of the hole alright.
Actually that carbine is something i´m working on right now and have to go on record and state that for a budget proposition piece of kit.. color me impressed. WAY higher grade build vs Snowpeaks old PR-900/Stormrider.
Not even on the same map.

One thing that got binned though was the stock moderator and shroud setup. FOR a waste of space... Rest of it is rather traditional to the build, just on way higher tolerance vs previous and in turn better materials used as well.
This particular one then the 25cal jobbie. Right now getting a somewhat larger plenum (that speaking of traditional of course resides within the tube)

What happened to the old site where they made custom stocks on pellet guns. Ive been away for a long time but surley someone still does it. They would modify 2240s to shoot big bore ammo.

I use SAE J844 Nylon brake line for mine, as it is much stiffer than the refrigerator stuff. I make them a bit longer than needed so they can compress a bit, cutting them at as close to a true 90 degrees as I can get. Then I chuck them up and spin them lightly sanding the burrs off and a bit of a taper to concentrate the pressure at the inside for a better seal. Works great.

Nice shooting breaux! I like to make sure to catch up on the honey do's before my outings as well as I prefer to not sleep on the couch.

I've been playing around with my Krait Standard just for fun. I've generally shot pellets at around 900 fps give or take.
My Krait reg is jammed and came that way so it's pretty much un-adjustable while I await a replacement reg.
Trying to get optimum tuning is difficult to match my expectations since I'm limited to just adjusting the hammer spring and pellet weights.
With 15 gr pellets it's way too fast until I get the hammer so low it's inconsistent.
18 are a bit closer but still flying.
So today I remembered I had some 26 grain JSB's and gave them a go. At 35 yards they are nice and tight and FPS is very consistent. They are also shooting at around 805 fps.

I know that shorter barrels need more pressure to get to speed, but I'm now wondering if shorter barrels may perform better in general at a slower speed to allow the pellet to be more stabilized? IE a longer barrel at more pressure allows more spin/stabilizing of the pellet before it leaves the barrel? Therefore a lower speed keeps the pellet in the barrel a bit longer without needing to stabilize as much forward velocity?

I could be way off or over complicating this as I'm no expert on ballistics.

I was just surprised at how well these performed at over 100 fps slower speed while actually increasing fpe.........

I have re read your post and got off on a tangent. Upon re reading the thread I'd take stubbers up on their offer. Based on what the krait is doing, his idea may be the key.

Midway USA. I got 2 pistols, 2 tins JSB pellets, pack of targets for $99.95 to qualify for free shipping.

I tried these out today in the Leshiy Classic with reg at 140bar using a 350mm barrel (from Airgun Heaven). 760fps. Very accurate. I’ll bet it can be cranked up to 800fps at 150bar.

Nice!

Gunnertrones · Sep 6, 2024

Wining and shooting (…well…) at 43 meters. After adjusting the scope, I put a mag (5 shot) on the middle large bird. Could have given the scope som extra clicks, but the grouping was what I wanted this time. The pistol grip is excellent for my hand, and perfect when it comes to rest shooting.

Funny thing, I just realized my battery powered compressor is a GX

I will definitely be picking up the CS2!

I put my new Belita on my Crown mk2, shooting JTS 18’s around 950 fps, and then shot these 2 cherry picked View attachment 495779groups of 6 @ 53 yards

Impressive

alguno sabe como atenuar el ruido que hace el martillo al golpear la valvula

@viti Lee este https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/edgun-r5m-ping.684312/#post-684354

En esta cadena, hay algunas sugerencias buenas de otros socios en la tema. Creo que necesita un depinger.

Well, looks like I have to pay shipping! And it’s a HEAVY bullpup…

I’ll call Cameron there and ask if they could send me a return label…

JimD · Sep 1, 2024

That's a good way to do it.

4 hours up and 4 hours back. Long day. Tammy says hi. FYI the guy with the watch is Joe Brown as mentioned in that scums video. He’s been hired as Marketing head for only the last year. But apparently people that don’t know him know more than me.

. Really nice guy for sure and did more with marketing recently then Velocity did.
