Tuning FX Dreamline action/pellet probe issue

[Guest]

So I have an fx dreamline classic in .25 



Sunday I shot all day long no issues, Monday tuned the rifle no issues (only adjustment made was hammer spring, brought it up to 912 fps) 



Reassemble rifle. Go and shoot yesterday.



Nothing but issues, thought the magazines were bad but they worked fine in my buddies dream tact, and saw no damage. 



It seems once the pellet is out of the mag and first enters the breech my prob pushes it at an angle? It cut the skirts off a few pellets (that I noticed) , it is about 30 % of the way into pushing the cocking lever forward that it becomes hard and I have to force it....



Any insight?



Thanks in advance

check to see if your barrel set screw came loose or if your probe is damaged

Blew a breech oring, my God was that frustrating

You couldn’t hear or feel that it was blown? The reason I ask is because I’ve never replaced the probe oring on my DL and was just kinda curious if there were any other symptoms than difficulty seating a pellet.

Unfortunately I had my "ears" in as powder burners were going off so at the time I couldn't tell but after doing some diagnosing at home I heard a difference 100%

Interesting. I've never had a blown breech seal cause a clambering problem. Was part of the seal sticking out to deflect the pellet?

The oring was missing entirely, so when I was pushing the round through the magazine it was catching the "groove" where the oring was supposed to be just enough to misalign everything.

thats crazy it would make it that far out to mess with the pellet skirt
