Issue With Precihole HP200 Pump
Posted: Mon Sep 30, 2019 2:09 pm
Hey guys,
I purchased a Precihole PX 100 and a handpump a couple of weeks ago. The rifle is a dream to shoot, as expected from a rifle from the precihole stables. However the handpump has been giving me a lot of trouble. The support team at Precihole has been most supportive in repairing issues as they have come up but I am worried that its going to become an ongoing expense after the warranty expires as new issues keep cropping up every couple of days post repairs.
Initial problem was with the o-rings as the pump would not allow me to pull up after around 50 bar, this was replaced and it followed with a constant leak at the bleed valve and once that was fixed the next time the pump doesn't seem to pressurize as the handle has a slight vacuum on the up stroke and no pressure builds.
Will have to take it back to the factory again but I wanted to know have any other forum members had similar issues with the pump? I am extremely new to the PCP side of shooting and this experience has rather soured me on it as each time I shoot I am worried if I will be able to fill it up again or be left with an expensive paper weight because I have no way to fill it up again . Any advice or similar experiences and how to stop this from happening again would be most appreciated.
Thanks guys
