    Macro line fitting leaks with high pressure...

    So i have never run anything over a standard 850psi - ish regulator on any gun before. I got the Ninja SHP reg for my mag, which i must say is AWSOME. Only one macro line fitting leaks, the one on my on/off asa. im guessing because the pressure pushes it out with such force that any fitting would do this? should i swap to a stainless line for running a high pressure reg?

    wiggle it a bit once it is aired up, it should quit. That is what mine do anyway.

      i tried messin with it. i just didnt try a new fitting because 1100 psi is some pretty good pressure... sometimes it would leak for like 10 seconds and then die off and stop, other times it would be a slight leak you could only hear off the field.

        Those fittings have orings inside which are replaceable. You could have dirt/grime underneath the oring causing your leak or a bad oring all together. You also want to cut your line as straight as possible your you'll never get it sealed.

          Try fresh macro line too

          The outside of the pipe sometimes gets scored when pulling in/out of fittings causing leaks
