Ram Stroke Adjusting

[P-dogg]

ok, so i think i figured out all my lpr problems. i had the 55/17 lpr set up, and the freakin velocity was all over the place, and i was using a crossfire lp tank. so i put the stock settings back on, removed the volumizer and had the same problem. i figured it was the ram stroke, b/c it was the only thing i messed with that i havent changed back. the question is, how do i know when my RAM STROKE is set right, as of now i have it so that the bolt doesnt rattle around, and there is a slight "click" when i close the breech.

your bolt should click on the back of the hammer when the marker is aired up according the manual that is how you know you've got a properly adjusted ram.

yeh, i adjusted it so that it clicks agianst the back part of the hammer just like ken said, havent tested it yet but i hope is solves everything.

check if your hammer is securely attached to the ram, i've been told by ken that if it came loose it would cause erratic velocity

dont think that's your problem but i'm just throwin more info into the ring

a loose hammer is a huge problem on velocity fluctuations....if the hammer is loose it's not hitting the valve the same way evertime and in turn you're not getting any consistancy etc...it often looks like shootdown or even worse it looks like bad paint...most importantly it looks like crap!
