Cut out the old one with an endmill, and glue in a replacement. That will net the angled porting, and larger throat area. Likely throat will be .275, and PEEK for the head will be required. Or make the replacement seat out of PEEK and the stem/valve head from O1. The more I think of PEEK seat, the more I like it... and an O1 valve poppet is not so hard to make.cheers,DouglasHey Douglas long time no hear!!! Glad your still at it.Was just out with my Flex in the breeze at 100 yards. Using the trees as wind flags is less than ideal. It is a fine shooter...cheers,Douglas
