So I tried both for a while. Shot consistency does seem to be better with dry lube, as I can now get sub 1/2" groups, but the silicone felt a lot smoother to pull, and produced less spring noise. Shot consistency was okay. Hard to say which I liked more.

Alright guys, here for my second post on this forum. Last time it was troubleshooting my newest installations. Now, I've caught the bug and I don't wanna stop until my Armada is unrecognizable and amazing. I'd like any and all recommendations for Marauder/Armadas. Parts, tricks, accessories. My...

Alright you magnificent bastard, one of those three things did the trick. I can't tell if it was lubing the bolt, the tube, or switching the studs, maybe all three, but it's night and day now. There's a dirty joke in there somewhere about pulling out, lol. I'm definitely thinking something was...

Okay, I pulled the bolt, cleaned it, lubed it (just the bolt itself) with balistol. Swapped the studs on the bolt and the hammer, and lightly lubed the hammer tube with silicone grease. It definitely seems a LOT smoother. We'll see later.

Honestly if I can't do it myself I'm not even interested. This is the fun part of any project for me. I like to tinker.

Unfortunately I have now done this 10 times or do, but I'm just not seeing it. I'll pull the bolt again though. Only checked that once.

I've been in contact with him. He informed me that as long as I left the o-ring off the gauge block closest to the reg it was fine.

I believe that was handled while installing the hill kit. It included a bit and deburring tool to open up the port, and a high flow transfer port valve to take advantage of the increased airflow.

Okay, so now I'm really confused. Because my results seem to be going in opposite directions here. Basically I'm trying to keep my accuracy at 50 yards with overhead for 100 yards if/when I decide to push that. It seems like the bolt is harder to work the *looser the spring is (the further...

I ordered some lube and a ball hone to smooth out the chamber plus a peek striker. Is there a way to balance the spring beyond that? Any more turns clockwise past 1 full turn and my shot count drops massively. Do you think the peek will be enough to soften up the spring safely? Sorry for all...

So the shorter spring is probably the Hill spring and I did indeed mix them up. So I feel dumb, haha. I'll turn down the reg, do you think that'll give me less headaches wrenching the bolt back?

Hey all. New to the forum. New to pcps. After a few weeks of playing with my new .25 armada, I decided to go all in and drop a huma reg, and the hill max power kit into it. After stuffing it all together, the results were somewhat disappointing. Now I'm not 1000% certain a didn't mix up the...
