Its ok with an extended probe, not a standard one as the standard will just sit inside the pellet skirt and not push it far enough past the transfer port...

Im going to buy a spare probe and try this and chrono to see what it does. Great idea 👍

thanks for the simple inexpensive trick. great advice. hope you got yourself a better webcam since this was done ;-)

Proof that pushing the pellet into the barrel further than OEM location is a power loss, is that a barrel length increase, results in a power increase. Similar mod is to clock the bolt and cut (dremel cutoff wheel) a slot from tip to the flange. Slot to be inline with port. As in decreasing the bolt tip diameter, it allows increase gas flow and improves laminar flow. This post is 11 years old and it is still relevant, assume job. Also works on 13xx models.

no it still stays as it would stock all i have done is turn the diameter of the tip down to allow more air flow, i did a test today on my sons 2240 his totaly stock was shooting 418 fps.. with just the mod of the probe it now chronys at 463.5 FPS so thats a good increase for sure..that with a 14.6 grain crosman premier hollow point pellet

hmmm... now I have to buy a drill press? ;) do they make those hollow tubes that you put on a drill, to make large holes for doorhandles for example, but in a smaller version, to remove material around a piece like this?

Very helpful - I tried it;and it worked as described!

All makes sense good video.

i'm on a budget, so I don't want to spend any more money, what do you think about sanding the probe down with a dremel?

Dude, what an awesome tip. Thank you!!!

great idea, I don't have a lathe or access to one, any other way I can do this?

Thanks great video

no it does not use up any more co2 it only allows whats not getting used to get used and up the power of the gun..

good to hear the info was helpful

thanks have a great weekend

thanks very much for the great tip! you have this nice lathe to do this with... any ideas on how to do it without a lathe?

If you feel you got the skills then go for it, other wise for 20.00 ill put one in the mail for ya this gets you probe only that's moded you will need a new probe cocking Handel that's threaded, I might sill have a few left of those ill have to check.

well when you use an extended probe you lose speed depending on your mods sometimes it pay more to just leave the probe alone and you will gain alot of power depending of course on your mods.. there are way to many combinations of mods

Can this be done with a Dremel power tool,and a vice?

does this use up more co2 ?

Great contends but video focus is blurred

Can you make me a power mod for the 2240 that hits roughly 650 fps ? If so what would be the cost ?

glade it helped you

thanks

you can buy one from me , i have several left in stock, in .22 cal

hey bro i have a 1322 crosman with a 18" barrel is a power adjuster work on it

Wouach.....!!!!!!

Awesome video. Great easy free mod. I have a 2289 with a 12" barrel and average fps of ~482. With your mod i took my probe down to 1mm -1.25mm and was windering about where you think the fps will be now?
