    Ped springs to mind immediately for an interesting job like this haha.
    Please hurry up and reseal your 107, that should prove fasinating really on all these issues!

    Interesting I applied my new Damping grease “Kilopoise“ that sealed my taps to the probe of my 108. It did eliminate any movement of a tissue put on the breech fired with 6 pumps. Did not seem to change my FPS output, but I assume my leakage was slight? “Kilopoise” is interesting stuff, not sure it’s appreciated in it Country of origin? Lol

    Also not sure that this will be a lasting effect as more and more pellets are fired. But Kilopoise is the stickiest most bizarre compound I have ever encountered.

    Recommended by Gaylord as well in his review; but I’m not really familiar with this process?

    “A real fanatic might have used some automotive valve-grinding compound to hand-lap the front of the bolt into the rear of the barrel; but this wasn’t my rifle, so I left it at that.”

    Yes I am itching to reseal it. I need the T1/T5 tool though. Unfortunately it is not available from Baker Airguns, JG airguns or Rick Willnecker of Precision Pellet.
    Luckily Ped is a fantastically friendly and very knowledgeable/skilled man who has offered to make one for me. That is really nice.
    I'll keep you updated.
    Cheers, Louis
