Alright, i have got a leak from the the barrel. It is the hole that sits almost below the feedneck. IT IS NOT FROM THE RAM AREA. it is from that one little hole. I have taken apart the gun and lubed all of the orings. Please give suggestions.

Have you replaced o-rings or just lubed them? It may be the rings on the ram sleeve itself...

i have just lubed them. One more thing, it is leaking from the little hole in the middle by the feedneck, but also when i push down on the ram with my bolt, it gives a diff leak, actually it reduces it.

I see. That would likely mean your ram o-rings need replacing not just lubing. Try installing fresh o-rings on the front and rear of the ram, along with a fresh coat of lube to start.

If it is still leaking it could have to do with your poppet.
I had the exact same leak last week from a team mates gun, If you do not have a rebuild kit Make sure and inspect each of the o-rings , carefully remove then wipe the lube off them and then look for cuts or imperfections. Also make sure and use Dow 55 or another seal swelling lube when buttoning up your timmy!! and if the leak persists post again well walk ya threw it.
