You should be good with that speed the thing i would do is switch to 18 grain i think you might like it more
l can fill it & shoot it but the remaining air will be just about gone next morning. One question, does the disc that tightens up the hammer in the back need to be screwed in all the way till it bottoms out?my first experience with maintaining this rifle. I’ve not done anything with the bottle, might this be the culprit? I do have replacement orings for the bottle. Any advice welcome as usual.
Bhaur here has a vdieo on a breakdown of sorts for a RAW, check it out. You might be able to find a full service video googling it. These are one of the simpler platforms to work on if you have experience with high pressure pcp's that is. These PCP's have very high pressure air that can be very dangerous FYI. So you definitely need to know what you are dealing with before starting. I know how to work/service PCP's but I still send my RAW to Martin for servicing as he is the one who built it and has built many thousands.
Woogie-man , yeah not having trouble getting it apart, I got the o rings. I haven’t found a site with complete info on takedown/ maintenance, believe me I’ve been looking. I put a new o ring on the bottle still a tiny leak. i didn’t replace the black Delvin part that pushes up against the brass valve. Can you post the link for the sites you mentioned..

Recently, I took my Theoben Rapid MKII out of its case to give it a shakedown test ahead of some fieldwork. It’s been quite a while since I have used this particular rifle. In fact, I have been neglecting my rifle collection in favour of pistols for a good year or so. I know, it really is unforgiv
This is the site I used to when I started on the theoben line. There are a few differences, but not many.
I would take everything down and swap all the seals just to be sure everything is fine. On mine I typically find that it is either the gauge or the foster fitting. Typically a little torque on the part seals things up. Just don't go gorilla nuts as it isn't needed.
