I have the Level 10 tuned so that it will reset when it encounters my finger tip.
I get plently of reactivity from my trigger.
I am using a .5 carrier. I am having a problem with the bolt sticking and I have to either push it back to reset the trigger or remove the air supply to correct the problem.
I went to a .0 carrier and the same problem was present.
I went to a 1.0 and the bolt stick was reduced although there was air leak down the barrel. The bolt would still stick at times, it would reset it self if I waited a second or two. The air leak down the barrel seemed to be intermittant, stopping after a few shots only to start again after afew more shots.
I have tried less shims and more shims in both the Level 10 and the ULT. It does not seem to change the problem either way.
I have also tried a nigger spring to no avail.
I have tried to loosen the field strip bolt some and well as the grip frame bolt.
I have tried more oil.
I am using an Armagedden reg at 900 psi.
HELP PLEASE.
Which spring are you using? If it is the middle spring, the one with the end already cut, try cutting 1/4 turn off that end of the spring. This worked for me becasue I had a similar problem. Shoot it for a bit and it should start to leak again, maybe after a case because of break in, then move to the next smallest carrier, you should be good after that, this is what worked for me.... let us know.
