I must be one of the lucky ones, I've used macro line on my cocker for over 2 years and have never had a leaking problem. Everyone else I know or hear from hates it, oh well, I'm happy. Give it a try, if it doen't work your only out $12. Razor : I'm not aware of 'microline' used with bottom line set ups. I would use nothing that would restrict flow unless you are using HPA at the 850 psi range. I have an old Microlone Remote and it will shoot down and starve for air at high rates of fire if my regulated tank is set below 850 psi. Just converted to the more standard remote after it bit the dust. : Macroline plastic hose ARE Chronic leakers. As the hose flexes in the fitting, it starts to wear and then leak. No problem. They quick disconnect and you trim off 1/8 " and slide it back in. Leak Fixed. The trick is you have to leave your line LONG ENOUGH to be trimmed repeatedly when you do your orginal install. : If you are tweaking your marker, sweetspotting your reg and other related things that would otherwise require taking your bottomline off, the quick disconnect is real handy. Save lots of time. : Once your set up is done, I'm a great fan of stainless steel braid. Install and forget it. : : One less thing to prevent you from playing at the field while you try to fix a leak.
