I am still pretty green with PCP's so 'WARNIN' - but, eager to learn and explore the hobby more. Simply a brand new RTI prophet from TT and it started dumping air. I had dry fired the rifle a few times before and also seen others do so in tuning videos - no issues. I filled the rifle to 200 for the second time. Been interested in getting a moderator and decided to test out several 3D printed versions. After one or two shots - no pellets - air started leaking out around the prob mag area and the sound echoed through the barrel. I could not tell exactly where but could feel air around the prob magazine area. The leak gradually slowed down and quit around 150 or so then stopped. Oh no ... great, warranty back to TT?
Filled back up to 200 and then just shot of some pellets with the moderator on. So far, not dumping air ... least nothing noticeable, yet. Another item I have noticed is the fill probe seems to need to pressurize up before something gives in the rifle, pressure gauge drops on the compressor and then fills to bottle. There is actually a slight audio pop when the bottle starts to accept air.
Just symptoms of breaking in?
