    decrease in consistancy after Level 10 install?

    Before I installed my Level 10 kit (and after replacing my spring pack and reg piston) I was getting phenominal consistancy with my minimag. +-2 over the chrono. Now that I have installed Level 10, it's gotten to about +-7. While it's by no means terrible, I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to bring it back to where it was?

    8 year old Minimag with a new spring pack/reg piston - Longest spring, #1 carrier, 2 shims. Running a Crossfire 88/4500 high output.

    Run the loosest carrier setup that doesn't leak, make sure it's well oiled and that you're shooting the same paint with the same bore match you were with your L7 setup.

      I was leaking with the #1.5 carrier, so the #1 is where I"m at. I'll make sure to oil up a bit more and see if that helps.

        Try that #1.5 carrier, drop ~ 6 drops of oil in the air inlet, then put about 100 dry fires thru the gun. That should break in the the o-ring. If it still leaks, go back to the #1 carrier and repeat. Breaking in the o-ring is a critical process in the LX setup.

          also make sure that when you switch carrier you DONT switch orings. use the same one makes things easier.
