Well just as yours did my extreme started leaking down the barrel after about 6900 shots. I remembered what you said about changing carrier to the next smallest.
The carrier in my Extreme had 2 lines on so I went for one with 1 line put it back together according to the manual and result it doesn't leak, I assume that means I got the correct carrier as it felt nicely snug on the bolt pin??!??
I have put a further 2000 shots through it and theres no sign of any leaking etc.
Does that sound right to you?
Oh also the shims, I could't get them out and they seem pretty tight in there they only sit about an inch in the power tube, is that right?
Cheers,
Paul.
