Harold, the port on the 30 cal barrel will help. if the ports in the breech were bigger that will also help with fpe. try opening your barrel port to 3/16 and see if that gains you the speed you need

I assume the port size should be okay.By the way, if i increase the regulator pressure to 175 bar it started to look like something (900fps for the 25 grain Redesigned pellet), but it becomes a HUGE air consumer then. 175 bar for getting a 25 grain pellet @ 900fps with the Priest is way too much.

And oval barrel port to get a surface of 5mm TP...Look at the factory poppet

I would say that judging from your pictures, that gun has been through *(&^ and had a few bad modifications. So, don’t be putting the gun down when your modifications/problems are caused by your fault.

This was demanded by the manufacturer. There were big problems with Mk1 hammer and trigger!

Things have certainly settled down from what I can tell now that the primary US Distributor changed.All in all, the RTI offering is much like any complicated HPA assembly- there will be problems. The folks at RTI seem to be willing to make improvements, and for a small company, that can be very hard once production commences. Just give RTI a fair shake- their heavy presence (for such a small builder) at EBR speaks volumes. I'm still fond of the Priest. Dunno if I like it more or less than some of the other bullpup offering out there... worth the money, it seems, but dunno if I will drop the coin especially since Cometa finally released a sidelever version of their Orion BP. We'll see what happens over the next few months but my "purchasing power" is leaning toward supporting one of the smaller builders.Right now is a great time to be an airgunner. We have boutique custom offerings like RAW and JSAR's guns going for a very reasonable price (especially since I get another 10% with JSAR thanks to being a vet), we have the fine offerings from FX, several other eastern European guns with known capabilities, some very good English brands, the usual German "suspects", Spain's Cometa, and of course, the "regular" US brand of Crosman, the Turkish and Korean powerhouses, and of course, SPA.
