Skout .25 Skout Epoch
- Thread starter Centercut
- Start date
Man id like some trigger time on one of these scouts, but i dont think any Dane have one.
I have not dared to look at the barrel of my Two, that is what is inside the tensioning system, CUZ i would then need a torque wrench to put it back together to be sure where i am with the tensioning of the barrel.
I assume i could just go and look at a pic at Lother Waters home page, to get looks and specs / measurements.
Later in the year, probably get torque wrench and a few other knick knacks.

Is it the kind of leak that a few twists of the HPR stops it??So I get home after post #357, and my new 25mm digital gauges were in the mail. The ones on there are good, but 28mm and stick out too far.
After depressurizing the breech block, I replaced both bottle and HP plenum pressure gauges. I left the LP gauge factory.
When I pressurized the block - surprise - the HP reg leaked through the middle as it has done about 3 or 4 times in the past. It hasn’t done that in quite a while since I replaced the Polyurethane orings with BunaN, but leaky is back. Hard to be disappointed the way it’s shooting in .30 caliber. Might have done well at the NAC, but that’s kinda far from San Diego.
Did the leak stop when you replaced 9009 ?
..I have a feeling the problem is o-ring 9006, but seems impossible to replace.

Could be the poppet seal inside the reg as mentioned above on MFE 105. You can pull out MFE107 then pressurize and if still leaking its probably from the poppet seat per SKOUT or turn it in to reseat and then reset desired pressure. You can get 9006 apart but will need some non-marring plyers and an allen key in the end. Once apart the o ring can be replaced but I believe SKOUT would just send you new poppet as well.So I get home after post #357, and my new 25mm digital gauges were in the mail.

No. I took it apart, cleaned and regreased everything, and it’s fine now. I hope it lasts through the Oregon event. I’ll do it again before RMAC. Plus I have a spare reg both HP and LP

Is it still performing like it did earlier in the year.
I’m thinking of doing this setup to an EVO.

Yes. It’s as accurate as they come. I shoot the AEA 45s at about 905 fps. Good enough to be competitive at the major Pro level.

So I’m a little confused. Ive read that to use the fix barrels on the scout you have to send the barrel in and they have to modify it to make it work, is that true? If so what did you have to do? Also are you able to use a moderator with the setup? Thanks

No, you buy a barrel assembly for the length and caliber of FX liner you want. They send it to you and you install the liner. Easy day. Yes, you can use the factory mod or your own with a DonnyFL adaptor.
