What is a good moisture filter that will fit on/in the Xisico pump? (and take the pressure) Every time I open the bleeder I get a little moist spray on my hand. I sure don't want that building up in my gun.

If you do a search there are many ways to add a desiccant moisture filter. What I did was plugged the ends of the handle then drilled a hole in the center of the handle tack welded and sealing a 1/4" air fitting and screwed in a disposable desiccant filter. Ended up cutting the disposable filter in half and glued it to a plastic tee and one opening having a screw on cap to be reusable. Need to take and down load pics on that contraption. I think some just added a filter to one end of the handle that may be easier. GL

And the filter on the low pressure side is enough that you don't feel any moisture when you vent the pump?

It has been hot and humid here and not noticed any moisture coming out of the relief valve. I could tear the rifle down to see if there is any moisture problems. I did change out the desiccant bead which were losing the color. So I am kind of guessing it is helping.

Where do you buy the desiccant beads from ?? Just curious....

I got them from Ebay.

Man everytime I bleed my line after pumping up my HW, I see quite a bit of moisture spray out (from a new-ish Hill mk3 with desiccant). My desiccant isn't very old either.

You are in a pretty humid environment.

Your desiccant beads are reusable, just la the beads on a pan and place them in the oven to bake them. Once they turn back to the original color you're good to go.
