Shanedog,

I use Crosman Silicone Chamber Oil for lubing the barrel O-ring. I put a drop on the end of the bolt and then work it few times to distribute the lube. If that's not available, use a plumbers silicone grease available at the hardware store. The bolt lube I use is a moly grease that may be available at a hardware store. I put a very light coating on the bolt. Hope this helps...

SDog,

Try standard silicon spray to lube your pellets. Brand Gunk "Silicon Spray". Try Ace, Autoparts or WallyMart.

Just a few drops in the pellet tin lid to lube 50 or so pellets. Every pellet will lube the o-ring. Works good as a barrel cleaning agent too.

Another option is to use a water-color paint brush to brush some on the ring.

Regards,
Scott

FP-10 works great.

i use divers o-ring silicone lubricant i get from diving shops for o-rings. it's formulated especially for o-rings used in diving equipment.

great idea.....thanks

Silicone grease made for o rings. Same thing that divers use on all their o rings. Nothing better and cheap I have had a 1/4 oz for the last 12 years use it on (4) PCP guns.

shoot straight

The best stuff is Oring lube from a dive shop. Scuba tank oring lube can handle the pressures without fear of compression detonation.
