maxx pro hop accuracy took a dip

[Lima02]

Any ideas? It's abit better now I've swapped nub and bucking. Its all seated well so can't figure out where the issue might be.

gonna need some more to go on, was anything done to the gun first? or has it just drifted out with use?

Got some errant lube getting onto the rubber to lose grip?

Accuracy dipped with use. Gun was maintained well, barrel clean etc. hop grouping was tight, no wobble.

you tried measuring fps consistency with a chrono? especially if it's more vertical dispersion than horizontal could be a leak growing elsewhere in the system.

 

you might be one step ahead here but cleaning a barrel in-situ with your typical cleaning rod can  end up just pushing crap down the barrel into the hop chamber, good to give em a clean outside the gun when the opportunity presents itself.
