I would assume it's leaking from the regulator - the seal to the atmospheric pressure equalization area.

I can't remember exactly where the regulator breather hole is, but you would spray it with soapy water. If it was my rifle I would not randomly replace any seals until I found the location of the leak. I would have dunked in in water by now :D Which is not a problem if you intended to rebuild it...

The reg could be leaking too

Thanks for the review. Can you give a link to the chrony on aliexpress please?

No it does not mean the leak is anywhere in particular. The plenum will discharge once the pressure has dropped enough to open the reg. Have you checked the valve for a leak. You won't see that with the spray. With the probe closed the air would come out the muzzle.

I'm guessing this too. There is probably a caliber specific sleeve around the barrel liner that seals the plenum. I'm guessing that because FX says an owner can change to a different liner of the same caliber and length. I also have an idea that the liner sleeve will shrink in diameter a tiny...

I hope it's not some sealed unit that can't be repaired by a DIY airgunsmith

From the fx website - "The Dynamic Block utilizes a compact one-piece valve. This High-Power / Short-Impulse Valve is extremely efficient while allowing an immense and precise flow of air" Maybe they have a new valve design? That is exciting to me as FX have used the same design for many years now.

The conservative or safe choice is to assume that if the action is only rated to 250 bar then that is all you should fill it too. Even if you add a reg. you should assume that the reg will fail at some point. Paintball guns usually have a burst disk to protect the action if the reg fails.

Thanks for the detailed reply. it good info to know.

Hi, Can you share what was needed to be done to fix your Maverick by FX USA?

Nice, a beauty.

The Brocock is great if you are happy with 25 fpe (.22), you will only get above 30fpe with heavy pellets or very high reg pressure. Mine shot 16gr JSB great, but the 18 gr went unstable around 50M. The Wildcat can do 50+ fpe, but my Wildcat suffers from POI shift, and needed a barrel band to be...

That depends on the power you want, The plenum volume may not be enough for 30 fpe+

Looks great, I hope I can make something as nice.

My aim here was to not have to add a suppressor so I can keep the weight and length down. The barrel is the 500mm.

It does on this Dreamline lite. It's not the compact version but not sure that is a factor.

I will double check tonight..

I think so, there is an o-ring in my part 14 for the liner to sit in. I found this post, which confirms the setup you describe; superlight barrel liner support but I'm wondering if FX changed it so the liner supports don't migrate backwards. Or FX sent an Aussie version to NZ ;) (no suppressors...

The liner on my Dreamline superlight barrel goes into part 14 when assembled, so no air can go back into the shroud. If I shortened the barrel by 100mm and just relied on the spacers (part 12) for centering the liner, then the shroud should provide some noise suppression. I'm interested to hear...
