Ok guys, I have had my lvl 10 in for some time now. I have approx 20k rds through it without a single break. This past weekend I noticed a small leak coming down the barrel. Should I replace the carrier O ring or go down a carrier? I'm unsure of how long the orings are meant to last and couldn't find the answer after skimming all 18 pages. Thanks in advance for the info.

[GhillieGuy]

TheDuelist, it probably isn't the carrier you need to replace, it is probably a new o-ring. First try oiling the ptoring and the set up and see if it works...

[TheDuelist]

I swapped out carrier oring and it stopped. I'll see what happens on the field but so far everything looks good. Thanks

I havnt been around for a while, so this might have already been discussed. I noticed that after i installed Level 10, when the CO2 starts to get cold, it wont shoot on every pull, more like every other pull, or every third pull. Im pretty sure its from the CO2 freezing(if i let it sit for a while, its fine again), but it never did this before the Level 10.

If i start playing alot again, im gonna get HPA, so theres not much to worry about, just thought id let you know about this.

[GhillieGuy]

Why?

[Hemorrhage]

Hemorrhage - X valves are new so they must be oil'd and broken in.

Havoc - how am I supposed to break it in if I can use it? I mean I oiled it up and all the good stuff but it still leaks out the side hole...any other ideas?

[Hemorrhage]

OK did some more fiddling, tighest carrier (no dots/lines) the gold colored main spring, no shims. HEAVY venting out the front when the trigger is pulled. Sometimes it resets itself sometimes I gotta use the ol' finger. When I push the bolt back in and it resets it leaks out the back, again heavily. Hmmm?

Velocity with my lvl 10

Im not having to much trouble with my set-up the instructions you guys put up are great didnt have any trouble.It seems my velocity is very ,well all over the place.I used the smallest carrier or the one with no grooves and this was the only one that didnt leak when I gassed it up,I used the one up in size of it.I have 3 shime's and Im thinking of trying another and at first I was having to use the smallest spring but I got to messing with it and I cut the longest spring slightly longer than the shortest,kinda inbetween the shortest and middle.Shoots fine no leaks just a vleocity that may jumps around 10fps or more.I read the post nd it seems that the solution given for this is go up a carrier size but I cant,will it wear a little as I use it and get better or have I done something wrong.
