Prophet bottle adjustment ?

airgunmike56 · Dec 5, 2021

I took the bottle off my Prophet , Now when I screw it back on the gages Reg and pressure gauge are in a bad place , On the down side of the rifle,,, I tried unscrewing and screwing back on a hundred times but when the bottle stops it stops no matter how hard I crank on it,,,

Just got to be a better way?

Thanks

Somebody unscrewed the bottle 15 degrees or so. When you screw it full onto the body, connection is vertical. You can safely unscrew a few degrees.

I wonder how the guys who have clocked their bottles for bipod extensions did it?

You can clock it while the bottle is empty, when you refill, it will lock in place.

Screw it on to where it's tight and then back off a half turn or so until you get everything where it needs to be.

It seals.

If you want you can add an oring to act as a compression spacer

Thanks Scotty1 and MikeHunt. I hope to get a bipod soon and I was wondering about that.

Thanks guys

I did the Oring method , As I have to turn the bottle almost a full turn to get it where I wanted it,,,

Big fat O ring in there worked great....
