How far forward is the ram suppose to be? Should i put any lube in the small wholes in the ram or just the shaft and and piece? Do i need to lube anything else? I am really confused about this because i have the gun completely apart and nothing is lubed. I only have love juice, should i have grease also? And im a real big noob but i dont know what an asa is either.

Grease all the o-rings on the gun EXCEPT the one on the ram shaft. Put 1 drop of oil on the ram shaft and extend/retract the ram several times. Put the ram back in along with everything else, but only turn the ram in like 3 thread lengths (just enough to seal). From here, Start turning the ram into the body while opening and closing your breech. You should feel the bolt pin rubbing against something, and then it will stop rubbing. When it starts rubbing again, you have it more or less dialed in. You should be able to open your breech with a fair amount of effort. Too easy is not beneficial, but too far and it's not good either. As long as it has rubbed once and then stopped, and then rubbed again, you're close enough. If in doubt, screw it in a little more. Too far and it'll start leaking.
