Well done for fixing it, way beyond my skill level😄. The block and grip/cocking lever came new and fully assembled from wolfiek so there shouldn't have been any issues. As for accuracy, that barrel isn't pellet fussy and super accurate. I think the Huma reg was set at 90 from factory whereas the RTI one was 125 so that may be the issue with the velocity. Thanks for the excellent video Buddy👍👍
Yes, from the blogs these are well known for valve leaks, and I think once you have it set up, just messing with the valve after that can easily cause it to start leaking again. If I can get either of the regulators to work right, then I think we're in for a chance of getting it sorted. This morning I had to take it apart and it's leaking again. The valve looks fine. The valve block can be an issue, but the valve once seated right should get the job done. I think it will take a while to sort it, but when I can get to see cliff, at the range, he's worked with the Priest and Prophet for over a year. He's always tinkering with them, and has a HUMA regulator pressure tester, hopefully that will sort the HUMA out. The steam valve looks like new, so buying another one, probably wont make much difference.
HI Mark thanks for sharing SIR. I feel your frustration. IMO it's the trouble with some rifles that are designed and built for High power. Then try to get them to our legal 12ft limit. Also from what I have seen the first version had problems with loads of people. Take care Mark have a great weekend SIR 🎯🇬🇧👍🏼
Absolutely fantastic vid, I'm lucky enough to own the prophet, it really is a very good rifle ( especially when it's up to legal limit power, ) my son machined a loverly aluminium bag rider ( 30mm dia x 100mm ) out of an aluminium bar I bought, looks great, and aids shooting considerably as there's 2 sharp skirts cutting into your supporting hand otherwise, the bar only cost a tenner, and had enough to make 3, compliments the grey/silver buddy bottle which looks stunning, the cocking mechanism needed little lubrication after I bought it, as it was a tad stiff and creek in operation, a drop or two of gun oil on the movable points sorted that out, really accurate with QYS 13grn magnum pellets ( rats and squirrels in garden) , had to tweak it down a tad via the hammer spring though.. As it was way above the limit ( I think it was running hot from the shop to be honest, even though I gave it a couple of months to settle after purchasing before chronographing ) now it's running a comfortable 11.7 with 9.56grn.. Very consistent anawl, though it drops off the reg around 110bar for some reason, normally fill it to whatever is in the dive bottle, usually around 240 bar if there's enough in, can go higher on a fresh tank top up, but 220 - 240 gives plenty shots without over stressing components nessesarily. .. Running a MTC Cobra F1 on it at the moment.. It's awesome..
That sounds great Mark. They are well made rifles and when on song, you can't beat them. Hopefully I can get this one sorted. Cliff Kirkman at our club has had the Preist and Prophet, and knows how to tune them. I will have to ask his advice on this one. The valve stems seem to be a problem on them.
Too be honest, im embarrassed that I watched the whole video. Some people shouldn't touch a RTI , or other PCP ,even if to help a fellow tuber. Not being totally negative, using the barrel installation tool without the shroud installed will keep me laughing all weekend. Good luck with your ventures.
At the end of the day you dont NEED the barrel installation tool. Its to make calibre swaps easier. He's having a good go and seems competent doing so. Which is more that can be said for 99% of airgun owners who havent the slightest clue how an airgun works.

@@airgunsniper-elite7385 BTW the P3 is very accurate with most pellets but really likes the jsb 10.34

Thanks Mike, it has been a pain in the bum, but hopefully I can get it to shoot how it should.
