FX FX Wildcat MK3 BT leaking

[bowopt]

Hello,

My FX Wildcat MK3 BT's first reg manometer shows leaking. I filled it up to 250 bar, and the pressure went down to 230 Bar within 2 days but was holding steady at 230 bar for a week. I thought it was because of the change in temperature. I left it alone for 2 weeks, and the pressure went down to 190 bar. I tried to find the leak by spraying soap and water, but I couldn't.

FYI, I had this problem when I was using the original FX regs, and I changed both regs to Huma's because I wanted to shoot high power anyway. But the problem with the leak continues, while the first reg is stable.

Any lead to solve this problem?

Thanks.

Did it leak from day 1? any reason why it wasn't sent back to the store to get it replace or fix? or did you bought it used and came leaking from the get go? If it's still under warranty you should contact FX and get it repair.

No, it didn't. I was adjusting the reg pressure. I found that the seal between the bottle and the gun that got torn up. I replaced the seal and it works now.

Thanks so much for the concern.

Glad to hear you got it fixed now. How do you like the MK3 BT so far?

Just saw the dude from youtube cranking out beastly 88 FPE from his .30 MK3 BT with tight grouping at 100 yard, from a shorty 500mm barrel. lol

I love the tunability of the gun. Jsb and hn pellets are easy to tune for. The frustrating thing is tuning slug. I got a very good group on HP slug 27 gr one day. I took out the gun a week later and the group was much bigger. I'm perplexed by it.

Maybe anyone can explain what happened and the remedy or if this is a common issue.

Thanks.
