Hi Members, Another question about my ailing Wildcat MkIII Sniper barrel. I unclogged the barrel and reseated the pellet probe O-ring. However, while I was messing with the barrel, I could hear something rattling inside the shroud. I had pushed out the stuck pellets, and could see down the...

Yes, I am learning this as we speak. It's a real challenge. Ernest Rowe does a YouTube tutorial on it, which helps.

OK, and maybe the tail of the pellet dislodged it while being pushed out backwards? Makes sense. Thanks for your input.

Hello members, I have an issue with my Wildcat Mk.III. In a post a couple weeks ago I was looking for a solution to a jammed barrel with 3 pellets inside. I managed to get it unplugged using a coat hanger that was coated in plastic. When I was pushing out the pellets back into the breach, I...

I was thinking the same - there's got to. be welding rods around here somewhere, although in Mexico they prefer to use glue 😉 Thanks!

My wife double loaded (or perhaps even triple) loaded my Wildcat MkIII .25cal. 😰 Firing it will not blow it out, which is why I think it could be triple loaded because usually a double load you can shoot out. 😕 What is the best way to unclog it? It's a 700mm barrel. I live in Los Cabos so I...

To ask this question is to admit that you are not playing by "He who dies with the most toys wins"

Ya those threads between the valves aren’t what seals the air in 😂 The chrome cylinder thing screws into the part that’s inside the bottle, it’s like a straw that goes into the bottle if you will. Most scuba bottles have them. Take the valve out of the bottle and thread it in. Make sure you put...

OK, I see. I do not know what that hole is for. If there is air coming out, the only thing I can think of is the o-ring might not be seated in the DIN300 valve, or whatever you call it. The o-ring on the part that goes into the bottle valve. I noticed that on mine the o-ring doesn't stay in very...

Do u have a photo?

No problem I do it all the time. I’m not sure which hole u mean , could u upload a pic?

First time shooting update: Wildcat MkIII's seem to be relatively accurate 🤨

Good point!

Thanks for your input - I think, based on what is available on the market, is that the brass threads on the hose that came with the Omega bottle is BSPP, ie British Standard Parallel Pipe. Seem like it's either that standard or the Metric stuff. Strangely the quick connect shape seems to be the...

Update: Decided to fill my cute little 2L CF tank and see if the hose seal fitting leak happened again. 23 minutes took the tank from 0psi to almost 4500psi when I heard a hiss. Spraying the hose fitting didn't make any bubbles. Took me a while but found what I thought was a leak was actually...
