A few years ago i set the Vet to shoot the NSA 29gr @ 936fps, very accurate and never had any problems at that speed, last time I went hunting I noticed the speed increased about 10+ fps I decided not to adjusted down, after taking several shots I heard a big pufff no more shooting for me that afternoon.
I know some guys shoot their Vets pass 950fps, mine doesn’t have a power plenum neither the power spring so I don’t know what could cause the valve stem to break 🤔

Few years back bought a .25 Long, grouping for JSB 33.95s wasn't great, tightened up groups with one turn in on HS. Shocked at "jolt" gun now had on firing, backed off HS 2X till "jolt-free," good groups. Seeing your story can't help but think what if I'd kept shooting with HS at one full turn in. WM

Yes, that ball bearing sits on top of the imbedded spring at the rear of the housing. It evidently helps with the cocking. If I have time later today, I will disassemble mine and post a pic.

In case you need a visual on the little ball bearing
