PP700's Getting Ready For This Weekend ; -)

[wll2506]

Just changed the mounting bracket on my PP700's so they sit lower ... I like it. Added a stock to the PP700W to match the PP700SA ... both stocks shimmed for no movement ! Both guns are very low profile and are very non fancy looking. I have not decided if I will have some type of sling on them or not ?

The PP700W shoots at around 650fps with 10.5gr CPH. If I can adjust the PP700SA regulator I would like that gun in the mid 700's. Both guns are a work in progress yet both sighted in ~30 yds..Both guns are in .177 cal

DonnyFL LDC arrives this Thur. and that will be the main moderator I use in the field as these guns need to be very quiet where I shoot !!

These guns are set up for Starlings, Hosp and Feral Pigeons .. Don't think I will be doing to much squirreling with these, but you never know.

These are my light, easy carry, small pest guns ... Got to say they are pretty cool !!!

Keep it coming Will, maybe you’ll be posting something in the hunting gate soon? Both of the rigs look good.

That’s great!

Because I ran across your posts, I just ordered one from Krale.  Mine is .177.  I’m looking forward to getting it and putting it together as a carbine rifle.

What/where do I need for an adapter to thread on a moderator? 

Thanks!

bReTt,

 I buy many of the moderator stuff from Donny F and TKO ... they has been doing this king of stuff a long while and are well known for there work. DonnyFL makes some higher end stuff, he is not giving his items away, that is for sure, but what you get is top notch quality.

I have his adapter on my PP700S-A and it is very nice ... sells them for $40.00, they are machined stainless and come with a knurled cap. My Tanto cost me $99.00 and I'll show pics of it when I get it.

There are others that make the same items on this forum and Rocket1 (David) made the LDC that is on my PP700W as you see it now .. and it does work well, you may want to contact him. I bought my PP700W used from him and he is a stand up guy for sure and many, many folks on this forum have had him do work on there PP700's for them !!!

I have the SUMO on my Streamline.  Donny does great business and products.  I give him a shout for an adapter and hush hush.

Very nice Luis!  I was going to order the folding stock but I think I want to attempt something different.  I should have bought it as a backup though, at least to get me moving until I get the motivation to make my own.

I can vouch for David's work on the PP700.  Mine was his test-bed.  I haven't changed much since I got it back a couple years ago.  Filled it a buncha times and sent many tins of pellets down range (15000-ish?).

If/when WesBob gets these in rifle-form, I'll be ordering up the .22, though the PP750 repeater also has my attention.

Luis, what caliber is yours? 

I just ordered the threaded adapter and a Tanto from DonnyFL today.  I also ordered a Simmons scope, rings and an Atlas clone bipod.  Now I need to find some sort of way to attach the bipod to the gun.  Once i receive the pistol, I’ll have to start figuring out how to make a stock for it and how to attach it.  I’m not looking for high power in the gun, more for shot count.  I’m curious to see what it does out of the box.

Vash/Lee sells  alum Pica/Weaver rails for the PP700.

Looks similar to this one:

@brett, mine is .22 it’s doing about 14 FPE with Crosman 14.3 gr premiers.

[wll2506]

DonnyFl Tanto arrived a day early, very quiet. I ordered the cone tapered back end, but will use my company milling machine to trim about .375 off the end so it looks better on the gun. Yes, shot my PP700S-A with and without the Donny on it ... and yes it does make a very noticeable difference !

Filled up the PP700w and PP700S-A making sure they hold air, I think they do.

Will grind down the sides of the 4mm hex allen tomorrow at work so maybe it will be easier get in and adjust the regulator.

Nice little walk about gun's for sure !!

Snugged down all stock screws, so guns are ready to go ;-)

Just proceed to the PP700 Artemis Adventure thread and you will find him there.

Same gent who produces the excellent aftermarket Urban mags, PP700 stock, and folding PROD stock.

[Rick67]

Vash545 is his complete handle.

[wll2506]

PP700S-A is loosing about 350 psi in the 24 hr period ... not the end of the world, but I will fix that.

Will sight her in tomorrow so she is on at 20yds - 30 yds and the is about 2.0 low at 45 yds with a muzzle velocity of ~700 fps using CPH 10.5 gr pellets.

They're leakers.

Mine developed leaks in 3 different places.  First the fill port, later at the regulator body, then finally at brass piston in the regulator.

A fourth place was blowby at the breech seal.  I don't consider that to be a leak in the strictest sense, but it doesn't speak well of the bubble gum OEM O-rings.

Being my PP700S-A has been pumped up less then a few days and never shot with a pellet in it, I'm willing to give it a few days to "Settle In", after that I will install the new 70 Duro Buna-n seals I got yesterday.

I'm assuming the leaking seals you are talking about are big ones around the fill port body and the regulator body. Might as well change the one in the brass piston also and lube them with Molycote 111 White Silicone grease while I'm at it !

[Pelletjunkie]

Change them all.

[Ribbonstone]

Every thing (including PCP's) made to hold pressure will eventually leak....pretty much the same for stuff made to hold a vacuum. Nature/entropy just works against an imbalance.


It all pretty much comes down the the simple o-ring.  Kind of like tires on a car; they aren't going to last forever, but  the right tire/alignementwill last longer than crappy tires. We can also consider that the PCP was assembed at the same time, so the o-rings are all of about the same age, so it's likely best to change them ALL when one croaks.


There are only PCP's that have leaked and PCP's that have yet not leaked.
