Rev, And you are 100% correct on the Swagelok‘s inability to be broken down and put back together multiple times. Good luck in your fitting search! That is a crazy looking piece. Tony

If the idea is to hold that 1/8” tubing into the pump, would a Swagelok compression fitting be a substitute? If that barrel piece has some important function then the Swagelok would be a no go. Tony

Just as a follow up and ending to the story, the M10 to Foster adapter came with a Dowty washer. I installed that; snugged it up; bada boom, bada bing, no more leaks. It would have been nice if the Dowty washer was included with the filter but not a big deal. I like being able to...

Is the Foster fitting on the Avenger like the one on the X? Mine looks to be a custom thing that allows the cap to be screwed onto it. A regular Foster wouldn’t allow for the cap to be used. Tony

Bubba, The fitting that came with the filter was identified as a M10-1. The adapter I ordered is a M10-1 threaded to the the Foster. The adapters were available in 1/8 NPT; 1/8 BSPP; and the M10. I think I have the correct one. I have both of the 1/8 flavors here and neither one of those is the...

I just picked up one of the bigger cyclone filters to use with my Gx CS2 pump. I have an Avenge X tube so the filter has tripled the pumping volume. Takes longer to fill but that’s not a real issue. The connection to the filter output is an M10-1 fitting that is attached to the whip to attach...

I have an Avenge X and get constant leaks out of the Foster fill fitting. It’s a slow one but I take the fitting out; clean out the shut off valve tube; and regrease the O-ring And the leak is fixed. It appears the avenger uses the same fill fitting. You might want to check there. Tony

I think I have it! The targets that were shot are the ASA targets and just have the 8 ring to the X shown. I think it will be interesting to see just how all of the shots come together. Tony

Joe, I‘d like to use those 6 targets you shot. With OnTarget you can plot each individual shot and then combine them to get a group size of all the plotted shots. I can’t seem to find the dimensions of the RMAC bull so if you could just get a quick measurement of the outer diameter of the bull...

What is the outer diameter of the bull? That is some nice shooting! I’d like to run the targets thru OnTarget to get the composite group sizes of the targets. Tony

Also, the graph at the beginning of the thread was using the same reg set point and the same hammer spring adjustment as the first test today at a 250 bar fill pressure. At 300 bar fill, I was seeing 940 FPS. At the 250 bar setting, the average was 895. Where did the extra. 45 FPS go? Overall...

Mercado, Agreed on the cheapo pellets probably giving me issues. I have a few AEA 25 grain (probably enough for a couple of runs. I'll try those. Here are a couple of shots of the AEA 25's at 50 yards yesterday. % shot groups. I was having rest issues so I also got a bunch of extremely poor...

I started off using Carl's advice with the lower fill setting. of 250B. The reg pressure was like it was at around 155B. Hammer spring as it was with 250B fill. Little bump on the hammer spring by 1/8 of a turn in. Starting yo look better I though. Another 1/8 turn in on the spring for a 1/4...

I did a tremendous amount of testing today using the tips given here and will post results later. In the meantime, is there a minimum pressure recommended the the Avenge X regulator? That is, is there a pressure below which the regulator will perform poorly or not at all? Tony

Carl, Also a good thing to try. Since this rifle will basically be a 25 yard backyard plinker/target shooter, the ultimate shot count on a fill doesn’t much matter to me as long as it gets more than, say, ten. I could see where lowering the fill pressure would help to even out the regulator...
