I said 1mm would be the minimum, usually it's more like 3 to 6mm.

I find that stroke is a big factor in getting an SSG to work well, once you find a spring rate that works 0.050" is way too small IMO and will still be causing hammer bounce, I usually work on 1mm as the minimum gap.

I did wonder about the spool valve O rings but as I said I would expect a badly sealing O ring there to cause a leak and in turn cause the reg pressure to be continually cycling to keep the pressure up, but I have seen no sign of this through using a digital gauge just the normal reg recovery...

Fair enough, but I still fail to see what else in the way of o ring compression/set would affect the velocity there is only the spool valve seals and if they were leaking pressure due to taking set surly this would affect all shots and make them all lower velocity like I said no change in the...

That would be a very good point if I hadn't already replaced the O rings in the HP reg with Viton, and I have a digital gauge on the HP side, so no creep.

Always leave pressurized! Why do you think it makes a difference?

Has anyone got any ideas as to why this should happen? Two weeks ago it was happily firing two different weight of pellet at the required FPS without the need for adjustment, yet it's now needing adjusting and the only difference was it's previously filled to 210bar and this time to 245bar, yet...

My Epoch has once again lulled me into a false sense of security, at the weekend I was getting 150 shots with a 14 ES, and today it was much the same but on changing to a heavier pellet the velocity increased beyond the 12 ft lb limit when a week ago I could change pellet weight without having...

I intend to check that out with mine as I have just ordered the Huma Epoch to FX converter and a couple of bottle valves, so I will be fitting my lane bottle reg and seeing just how neurotically close I can get my ES.:D

You can get FX adapters so you can use an FX quick detachable bottle valve, and the Lane reg allows you to fill the bottle before the reg.

Aside from the FX there are a few guns with two regs, the idea being to give the main reg an easier time of it and helping to keep any creep to a minimum, I actually have a spare Lane bottle reg that I might at some time try and see if it makes any difference, but I suspect I will need an...

A question, my Epoch was not leaking at all until a friend gave me a tip about keeping these areas of the HP reg clean and free from silicone grease, the result was it tightened up my fps variation by a lot but ever since I have had a leak, anyone know why this should be, and is this something...

The firing valve O rings are leaking.

Oh! Well, I tried!

As I am currently looking for and adapter to fit a buddy bottle with a self sealing valve to my Kral Puncher Pro 500 which had a bottle but never a self sealing valve, I have a Lane Mk11 bottle reg fitted but want to retain the air when I adjust the reg but need an adapter to do so. Anyway, I...

There are a couple of Epoch/Evo threads with fairly comprehensive details you should also try the Skout website and look up spool valves as used on paintball guns for 20 odd years, and you will get an idea of how it all works.

WOW! that's a lot of polishing, I normally polish with Slovol Autosol and mop going full length and no more than 50-100 strokes, works very well on my barrels, the only barrel it didn't work well on was the STD Skout alloy type barrels, but mine was pretty rubbish anyway, I would be wary of over...

I was under the impression that a new cable was not necessary for the Gen 2 gauges? or have I got this all wrong but I have to agree their instructions are very hard to follow.

Surly running such a small gap is still going to promote hammer bounce?

The O rings should be easy to get hold of, check the sealing face of the nylon insert it may need re machining if badly groved also the brass side of the sealing piston is quite chunky, I re machined mine to be a bit sharper, not quite knife edge but closer than the original profile so it seals...
