thanks for the feedbackWell guys it’s been a couple weeks, but I’m reporting back on my solenoid fault error that I was getting on start up with my gun.
From what I understand from talking to their Tech Support it looks like it was a faulty solenoid circuit. So they’re just replacing that for me and should have it back up and running this week.
As usual, it’s always a pleasure to deal with the people over at Scout.
The Male foster fitting on the Skout is made and not purchased from a manufacture. it is within the standardized specifications for the fill nipples. The complaint we have gotten previously is that our fill nipples are sometimes tight in the female connectors. Since this seems like it could be a little off, are you able to measure the outer diameter of your fill Nipple to make sure it is within spec? If it isn’t we would be glad to send you a replacement for free. As for the customer service I am sorry this is the experience you had and it doesn’t represent the service we strive to provide. If you don’t have access to calipers to measure I’ll gladly measure one today to ensure it is the right size and send a new one out.
Nice colors!Thanks! Yes, it's one of the parts I make for other guns and sell on a UK air rifle forum.
What was wrong with your gun?So glad to get this back and tuned back in where I like it.

It was giving me an error on startup that said solenoid circuit fault.
As far as I know, just Scout. I’ve considered buying an extra one just to have. I think they run about 100 bucks.
Great color and a super nice scope!!!So glad to get this back and tuned back in where I like it.

Boy this is the first I have heard of bad customer service. I have both emailed and called and always a quick response - including a conversation I had with him this morning. Ask for Darryl as he is extremely helpful and responsive.
Hi, I am curious if your speeds come back up after the drop? does it come back and then drop and keep dropping?
I have discovered two things since then, one is that I improved the variation by making a reducer that goes between the valve seat and the barrel transfer port, and secondly I no longer trust the FX chrono that I was using as since the last update it throws random usually high readings with all my guns (it was fine before the update).
How does that works ?I have discovered two things since then, one is that I improved the variation by making a reducer that goes between the valve seat and the barrel transfer port, and secondly I no longer trust the FX chrono that I was using as since the last update it throws random usually high readings with all my guns (it was fine before the update).
I was having problems with consistency aside from the FX problem and was seeing 20fps + even from my LMBR chrono which is always good so started looking for possible reasons and the fact that after the airflow leaving the small valve seat (sub 12 .177) It's allowed to expand into a 9mm x 13mm space before being re squeezed into the STD transfer port which is although large for sub 12 standards is 6mm x 4mm so my thought where that this is not desirable to have the airflow expanded and recompressed so set about making an insert that just carried on with similar diameters from the valve seat to the TP, and it worked the consistency reduced down to under 10fps.How does that works ?
So I shoot the .177 but I’m not limited in power like you are. Where are you fitting that reducer at.I was having problems with consistency aside from the FX problem and was seeing 20fps + even from my LMBR chrono which is always good so started looking for possible reasons and the fact that after the airflow leaving the small valve seat (sub 12 .177) It's allowed to expand into a 9mm x 13mm space before being re squeezed into the STD transfer port which is although large for sub 12 standards is 6mm x 4mm so my thought where that this is not desirable to have the airflow expanded and recompressed so set about making an insert that just carried on with similar diameters from the valve seat to the TP, and it worked the consistency reduced down to under 10fps.
The std setup is fine for you guys with unlimited power and large calibres, but when stifled for the sub 12 market it's not ideal.
