Or the vent hole to atmosphere is blocked. Don’t think it’s anything that’s specific to the .177 cal.

I’ve not been satisfied with the accuracy of my .177 Cricket Standard running at about 7 fpe (legal limit in Sweden). This evening I was lapping the barrel. After I was done cleaning I noticed micro fibers stuck at the crown from the pieces of cloth I’ve been pulling through the barrel. If the crown tears on the…Read more

I’ve completely drained the reservoir a couple of times dialing the regulator down and it works fine to pump from empty.

First time I had a little trouble, the valve pin did not seal with low pressure. After taking the valve apart and cleaning the seat and pin it has worked as a charm every…Read more
