I bet you dollars to donuts that some of the lube made it past the piston and you’re now dieseling. I had the same thing happen with a few springers. You’ll just have to take it back apart and remove the grease and try it again.

no dieseling,im.shooting indoors and would hear it I'd think?
I'm gonna tear it apart though, good idea.

The other common reason is that the piston seal got nicked on installation, particularly if the cocking slot has a burr.

Most common reason in an HW30 is the ball detent for barrel lockup is not working properly.
