    Skout Epoch .177 pellet loading?

    Anyone had problems with certain pellets being hard to load? I mainly use Barracuda 8s and JSB Heavies and until recently I have had no problems with either but all of a sudden the 8s are very notchy and hard to load, the only thing that I have done different is to change the pellet probe O...

    Skout Epoch O ring sizes?

    I seem to remember seeing a post where someone had made a list of the O ring sizes and some equivalents, but I am dammed if I can find it after several searches? Can anyone point me in the right direction please...

    Skout Why I Changed my Epoch Barrel.

    If you were wondering why I went to the trouble of fitting a new LW barrel to my Epoch here is why, I thought I would take some close up pics, there is practically no definition of any rifling and what is visible is uneven in both width and depth there is also a pic I found of a borescope that...

    Skout Epoch Battery?

    I was at the range just now and the gun just turned off, it had two bars showing on the battery indicator but wouldn't turn on again, I have charged it twice since getting the gun and have fired perhaps 1.5k pellets, is this normal?

    Skout Has anyone made a 3D print file of a more ergonomic grip for the Epoch?

    Before I start trying to make a wooden or metal based grip I thought I would ask if anyone has done this as i don't find the grip very comfortable.

    Skout Why do Skout use Poly O rings?

    Anyone know just why they use the poly O rings instead of nitrile, viton etc? And has anyone changed, them out for an alternative?

    Skout Epoch Reg Pressure drop?

    I am experiencing reg pressure drop in line with bottle pressure, I was under the impression that the function of the regulator was to keep the pressure constant until the bottle pressure is reached, but this is crazy, this is a sub 12 .177, but this should make no difference today I filled to...

    Skout Epoch barrel nut thread?

    Does anyone know what the thread size is on the Epoch barrel clamp bolt/ nut ? It measures up at 0.744" so presuming it's 3/4" unf but so far as I can count it's 22tpi can anyone confirm as i want to make or get one made but longer for a shorter barrel 605mm, instead of the 635mm one.

    Skout The new Epoch Compact?

    It seems the Epoch compact lacks the depressurise knob and uses the industry STD bottle, so does anyone know what's changed? Have Skout changed the type of O rings used in the gun as I was under the impression that poly O rings were not long-lived under pressure and would take set and stay...

    Skout Epoch trigger hack.

    Don't know about you guys, but I am not a big guy or have big grip, but I find the Epoch trigger way too light I am used to light two stage triggers, but the trigger is ridicules so when I went to shim the trigger as I always do I had a look and decided that if I could find a short soft spring I...

    Skout Epoch problems.

    The Epoch was shooting fine on Saturday, but today I went to the range, and it has started to be very inconsistent with pellet speed I am talking random 60-80fps jumps from shot to shot, and I had several pellets get stuck which shifted by removing the mag and repeatedly firing, and they were...

    Skout Epoch transfer port/valve seat?

    Will Skout ship these direct to the UK or am I going to have to go through one of the subsidiaries and pay a premium, same goes for the Dony 1/2" x 20 moderator adapters?

    Skout Tight Epoch barrel!

    Having rodded a few pellets down the barrel I am rather worried about my findings first off its pretty tight getting a pellet in to start and has a pretty tight spot in the first inch or so, then feels a fair bit looser however it has a mega tight choke for the last 2–3 inches it takes a fair...

    Skout Skout Epoch tuning questions?

    Now I realise this may be a bit different as I am limited to 12ftlbs in the UK, but I have recently got myself an Epoch and has what we call anti tamper in that the low pressure reg is not adjustable and the high pressure reg is fitted with a weaker spring and lacks a spacer shim to stop it...

    Skout Epoch Cocking handle bolt?

    OK so I got my Epoch today and I had already turned up a nice coking handle to put on only to find that the bolt I used is too larger dia, anyway on trying to remove the bolt from the std one I am finding that its, not a normal allen bolt, I can't quite tell just what the head is by looking with...

    Skout My Epoch arrived today!

    So far I have got it ready for a trip to the range and pinched a scope from another rifle, and I am impressed with the quality and workmanship, more to come once I have had a chance to shoot a few hundred pellets, the only thing that disappoints is the fact that after the initial contact from...

    Skout Quick barrel question.

    My Epoch arrives tomorrow, and it will be a case of fitting the ARCA rail some picattiny add-ons and scope to nip down the range for a testing session, but do I need to clean the barrel? Sure I would on any other rife, but given the unusual construction of the Skout barrels do they coat them...

    Skout Anyone found gauge thread/angle converters for the Epoch.

    Thinking about my forthcoming Epoch purchase, As I understand it the gauges use a BSP thread and most digital gauges have an NPT thread so it's a case of using a straight converter which are readily available, but has anyone found an angled converter or even a right angle converter, cant seem to...
