walther LG300 matchrifle

[hwtyger]

Any experiences on these? I mean the 7.5J 10m match rifles, not 12Ftp FT one. Any problems? Reg problems as well? It would be a new one, though not XT version. Wooden stock. I also read on target talk about cilinders emptying completely when unscrewing from the rifle. Any experiences there?

no problem with mine... not heard about the cylinders purging when taken off, and that's been done 100's of times on my dommies and lg300xt

could possibly happen perhaps if the cylinder is really low and there's not enough back pressure to close the valve.

not heard or had any reg problems whatsoever with mine

The air will purge from the reg when the cylinder is unscrewed but not from the cylinder,.

The problem I heard of, was really the cilinder completely emptying. Valve getting stuck inside or whatever, dont know. More problems with the 200 than the 300 fill adapter, and shortening the fill adapter solved the problem in some cases. It was in 2006, but its always good to know wether they solved it..At that club there were about 8 LG300's, all had this problem..
