: Seal Lube whilst Bilk Loading
: November 01, 2007, 12:42:41 AM
Just about ready with my Bilk Fill kit and a thought crossed my mind...

I know Crosman Co2 Powerlets contain a "seal lube" and wonder whats the best procedure when bulking.

A local gun shop recommended "Kasu brand" Aerosol Dry Silicone Lube, advising me to spray a shot into the QB78 co2 tube/ chamber approx every 250 pellets. Another guy reckons to buy liquid silicone gun oil and put a "drop" into the tube every so often.

Any of you guy's know what's best ? I have bought both of the above and whilst reading somewhere you can "over-lube" seals in a QB78 i thought i had better ask the "Fountain of Knowledge" !!

Cheers All

Probably the best thing to do is get a tube of Crosman Pelgun Oil and put a drop into the neck of the fill adaptor just before you fill the gun.

I'm still running with powerlets, so I put a drop on the end of the first cartrige then charge as normal and give the gun a quick firing just after I fill it. I do that every fourth or fifth cartrige change.

Been using Crosman Pellgun Oil (30 wt. non-detergent oil) in the CO2 guns, one drop on the business end of the CO2 (airsource, powerlets) bottles  every 3 changes.

Can't tell if it has hurt or improved anything.  I guess no problems so far means it's working...
