Alecto help

[Bigbill]

Hi all I've had my Alecto for about 2years and haven't used it for a couple of months, decided to give it a run out at the club tonight. First 4 targets were up to my usual standard 3 out of 5 in the black with a couple of fliers Next 8 targets looked like they'd been shot with a shot gun, holes all over the place.
The power seems to be going up and down, normally shoot with 1 pump at 10m

Any body any ideas what's gone wrong ?

When did you last put a couple of drops of oil in the little hole in the gas ram thingy?

Try that and see how you get on, sounds like the seals dried out a bit.
Try cleaning the barrel as well........can't do any harm.

HTH.

As above. If not using mine for a while I always give it a drop of lube and then dry fire it a few times before pur it away. However a left to right, up-down spread would indicate a bit of barrel-drag also. Try a good lube first, and then perhaps after a few shots a couple of cleaning pellets.

Cheers guys will try that and let you know how I get on.
