Do you have a spring or a solid spacer in the power tube?

Well, I know you said you replaced all o-rings, but you might want to put a new one in the power tube and try again. Make sure that there isnt any debris in the power tube. Make sure you are putting some oil (5-6 drops) in your asa before you gas up on the new o-rings. Is your sear in good condition?

Well, the only things that are coming to mind are 1. the power tube spacer is too big - if you have one, go with the .220 spacer, or 2. your sear is worn or out of adjustment. Are you using a AGD bolt or an aftermarket bolt?

Gas it up again. Take your squeegee and push on the bolt and seeif that stops the leak. If that stops it, you might have a bad sear.

I'm guessing that the sear has worn a bit over time allowing the bolt to sit farther forward. This needs to be compensated for by using a shorter powertube spacer. If you don't have one, shorten an existing one by rubbing against a file or sandpaper lying on a flat surface. Keep test fitting until you no longer have the leak.

Well I appreciate all your help but i figured it out. After about thirty times of rebuilding my valve i started to look elsewhere. when i ordered my rebuild kit i also ordered an intelliframe. Needless to say this moron here did not know you had to take the 2 brass things apart off the old trigger frame and put one of them in the intelliframes field strip hole- which in effect goofed the valve spacing all up. Well even though i missed my game the thing shoots ten times as accurate now!

Yep, that would cause it.
