Barrel fouling within 75ish shots

If a scope pic was posted I don't see it on my end.? Do you know location were the build up of lead is .? & do you know were the tight spots in barrel are.? I still don't think I'd be going further on a 1 holer at 50 but would be fun to find out were & why. It's gotta be building up in a heavily restriction/choked up area, I bet. I posted a pic of a jagged pit in my groove & also onto the lands on a newer LW barrel . Should be ok now but it would have been a mid barrel lead collector
No bore scope pic posted yet, I cleaned it yesterday so now I have to get it fouled up again :) next time it is acting up I’ll take bore pics and post!

What are you looking for when purchasing a rear bag?

When I purchase my 1st rear bag, i just choose a popular brand that seemed like it was high enough work with my rest. I really didn't know what to expect.
Found out that the height was too low, so i made a block of wood as a riser and got a dead bottom. Everything seems to be working just fine. I did the testing on placement and reset to that spot. But i still wonder if this is the right set up.
My questions are; What are you looking for when purchasing a rear bag for BR?
It just seems to be hit/miss if you are getting one that works with your set up, did you also see it this way?
Do you fill the bag as tight as possible? Do you fill the ears the same?
How do you know if you have the right one? What are indications that you have the wrong one?
How many did you have to try to find the one that worked?

Thanks
Mike
Unfortunately I don't have a prescription other than to say all of those things can matter and ultimately there isn't one bag that can do it all.
- Every rifle has a different height
- Every range has a different elevation requirement
- Some rifles like wide ears some like narrow, some tall 'rabbit', some short 'bunny'
- Fill amount and weight can matter
- Fabric type can matter. I don't think having zero friction is the goal as much as having consistent friction and recoil.
- Ideally you'll see the POI hold through the shot cycle. Currently I'm having my best with a small amount of recoil movement.
- If you're lucky you have access to try other people bags and save a lot of time and money.

So far my experience has been the same as bicycle saddles or hiking boots - you won't know anything until you buy it and put a few hours of real miles on it and making adjustments. I will be reading this thread for any ideas for shortcuts. Maybe we should set up a service where you can rent various bags and return them for a modest cost if they don't work for you.

FX  FX Impact M3 experiments with valve dewel time

I can't physically measure the dewel time but I understand from my past experience that when a harder valve return spring is applied, valve takes less time to shut down.

The force of hard valve spring is very low as compared to the regulator pressure force but once the valve is opened, the hard valve spring plays it's role in shutting the valve quickly as during dewel time the force of regulated air on valve is greatly decreased.

The sound of the gun tells the story.
How did you determine that : "The valve adjuster doesn't affect MUCH on dewel time."?

N/A  fx wildcat compact in 177 for hft

what setting did you used on the hammer spring?
I have the sniper version, I have the reg set to 120 bar & the wheel set at postion 1. I had to tweak it with an allen wrench to get a consistent 746-751fps.

I havent chronoed it back at position 7 to see what I did to my max power but I am happy where she sits now.

Predator Installation Instruction

O trust me i so want one of these.
BUT !
With the price, and even if it was cheaper than that, and the amount of use it would get, i am sadly forced to admit it would be a waste of my limited funds as a pensioner.
It is illegal to hunt all but a few pests here at night, and that even entail a permission to do, as well as a permission to quire a night sight.

BUT ! Dont get me wrong i still so want one.


In regular good low light sensors, the pixel size are 3-4 micron, in sensors like Sony Starvis 2 IMX 678 - IMX 675

Benjamin  Newbie Picking Air Compressor

so definitely bigger than what you are looking for but I have Tuxing TXEDT032 I have had amazing luck with. It has a pre filter and post compression oil/water filters. Have had it two years and fills guns and large 9L bottles alike with no problem. Put well over 50 hours on it and only maintenance has been two oil changes (proper break in) and topping up the water coolant reservoir.

I don’t have direct experience with it but they have the TUXING TXET063 with both 12v and 110v capabilities with other items and their cheaper shoe box style TUXING TXES061 all on Black Friday sale.

Other  thinking about buying an avenger, for plinking and some occasional hunting. would a hand pump be reasonable or a compressor is a must?

I have an Avenger that I fill by hand pump to 3800 psi, with reg set at 2100 psi. Refill when it gets to reg set point, (2 sets of 50 strokes each). But, I have gone through my pump to make it more efficient. Works for me.

Skout  Skout EVO, Ridiculous Chronograph Numbers

Dwell setting is 23
A panthera with a Ernest Rowe worked over reg and his match stack. He's good with guns and Making them capable of shooting in the same hole at 100 yards. This gun shoots the same fps about everytime the ammo matches besides the warm up 3or 4 shots. After that it's very consistant. Refresh rate is instantly.,it slows some when pressures drop to 170 bar. But besides that it's consistant. Shoots good to. Here's a couple 5 shot 100 yard groups I shot a week ago or maybe longer than a week. Don't remember,I shoot alot,just don't take pictures all the time.

Behemoth moderator vs. Zelos= Trouble

Thanks for all the advise! I think I may try the set screws option as it gives it adjustability. I have already changed out the O ring at the end of the actual barrel to a slightly thicker one to stiffen its position to no avail. Another option is to drill out the existing .22 to a 25 since they already have damage to each module that I can separate and drill easily with the Behemoth.
