Help with Panthera CF sleeve

I bonded mine to the liner, wouldn't recommend it as it became harder to find the sweet spot tune and more speed sensitive, not less.
I did the same thing with my 600mm Maverick 22 liner. After spending several hours trying to get it to shoot like it used to I gave up and ordered a new liner and dozen of the O rings that were on the liner from the factory.
Maybe they work better without bonding them, but the CF liner I got was loose enough that it moved up and down the liner easily. I didn’t want it sliding up and down the liner so bonded it with epoxy. Maybe that was my mistake?

Best use I found for the CF liner was to push the orings back down the barrel in an attempt to space them to get it back to shooting as it did originally. Which it never did which lead to trying the bonded method, regret ever taking it apart to begin with. You would really think FX would test and add these liners at the factory instead of peddling them as a do it yourself improvement. As you can see I'M NOT OVER IT YET, lol.
