Sherwood SR2 low cracking effort

I don’t think it can travel that far in the case but ???
Can you put the barrel back in the case and see what happens with the full range of adjustment?

Sorry for the poor memory I may be experiencing

I’m in the same boat with memory. Lol

Now turn the adjuster in and see if it stops and then keep going to see if the lever drops.

It did stopped leaking and the lever did drop.

Ok, bad memory confirmed, can the leak stay stopped as the lever comes back up?

Yes, and with the diaphragm and cover in place, no leaks and I have good purge.
