I’ve been leaving my Talon SS with the tank attached in a case and lately it has been loosing pressure.The tank is filled to 3000psi from my scuba tank.It takes about a week to leak down.Any help is appreciated,Thanks

Thanks moneyshot, I took your advice and replaced the oring.No more leaks.Took a trip to Home depot and matched the orings came home installed it filled it and it’s not leaking anymore.To celebrate i took out a squirrel,one shot one kill instant kill.
Thanks again Moneyshot for your help Felix
drain it. remove the stem, unscrew the brass. check the o ring. replace if necessary. grease it with heavy silicone grease. put a wrap of teflon tape around threads before reinstallation. reassemble. get back to us…
Finally got around to checking where the leak is coming from.My tank is leaking from the brass bushing which threads into the tank.It’s not the valve.Now to find someone who can fix it.Any suggestions.
Thanks guys will check those too.
How easy is it to push the cocking hammer all the way back? could be your top hat is out to far also.
Could the case press the cocking knob towards the tank; applying pressure on the valve?
It just leaks over time like a week,Never did it until started leaving in the case with tank attach.
does it leak when not attached? also, dry fire a few times and see if it stops. sounds like the seal is either misaligned or needs to wear in a bit…
