My New Akela

[Gunner1985]

It seems my Akela has developed a leak. The last 2 mornings its been between 2-300 psi lower than where I filled it to when I finished shooting.

I'm going to try a little soapy water around the gauge and foster fitting today. But otherwise I guess I'll be sending in for warranty work. This might explain why my shot strings were not as consistent as other owners strings.

Dang! At least there is a 5 year warranty.

It's probably an oring somewhere but I've only had it for 2 weeks. I like it a lot and its well made but unfortunately it is leaking a little.

Any update on your leak? Just got mine and w/in a day discovered a slight leak at the breech when firing. I'll put my money on an O ring problem but with no service manual or parts list, I'm reluctant to tear into the block yet,
