I understand the Crosman 1377 and 1322 breech are the same. The 1322 breech is hard to find right now so I ordered a 1377 breech and a 1322 extended probe bolt from Mellon Air. The 1377 bolt with the breech kit seems to work just fine in the 1322. Is there a minor difference in the pellet end of the bolt? I feel like it shouldn't work but it does... Unless someone can see a issue with it I 'll go my 1322 pellet popping way while I want on the Mellon Air 1322 bolt.
the 1322 steel breech is actually the 2240sbk
The difference is the o-ring groove and o-ring. If it seems to seal ok for you go ahead and shoot. But you may be loosing and bit of air there, then again, maybe not. A tissue over the loading port and shoot. I would go ahead and change to the Mellon bolt when you get it though either way.

Is ther less grove on .22 bolt than the .177? ???

No but it's a diff diameter and o-ring to match the .22 breech
Ok, I knew the oring was bigger . Learn more everday around here :-*

Learning is "spending" around here! :D ;D
The o-ring needs to be bigger because the .22 barrel loading port angle and bore is larger than the .177 barrel angle. So with a .177 bolt and oring, it would seat at (or closer to) the bore of a .22 barrel instead of on the angle, which may allow gas to blow by easier than if sealed properly on the angle alone.
I have been in-between bolts just like you and used the .177 bolt with the .22 barrel until I got a .22 bolt with little air loss. I think I might have even added a larger oring at one time per another members suggestion. But, in the long run you are better off with the correct bolt to barrel match up. The only problem I could see was if I blew the oring (low probability in my opinion) and it came back and "shot my eye out". I wear glasses so I took the risk ;)
So far seems to work fine which I don't understand.... Anybody know how long Mellon Air is taking to fill orders now?
Anywhere from4 to 5 weeks :(

This very much true, that's why the looong wait
It would be nice if he replied when he got the order and gave a expected date. Are there any other good dealers that ship faster?

all that does it takes time away from working on orders.this is actually a thing where minutes and seconds count.think of how much wasted time would occur if he did that for every order.hours wasted on e-mails that could have been put towards shop time.
its right on his website where you order from.

I WILL BE OUT OF TOWN OCT 4-9. I WILL NOT BE ANSWERING EMAILS.
SEPT. 18
I AM 5 WEEKS BEHIND AS OF TODAY. THAT MEANS FROM THE DAY I RECEIVE PAYMENT. IF IT'S BEEN MORE THAN 5 WEEKS IT'S BECAUSE IT'S NOT DONE YET.
I SPEND 1-2 HOURS A DAY ON EMAILS WANTING TO KNOW IF YOUR ORDER IS DONE, OR ETA ON WHEN IT WILL BE DONE. THIS IS TIME I COULD BE MAKING PARTS. WHEN YOUR ORDER IS READY I SHIP IT. IF YOU WANT A REFUND ON AN ORDER NOT SHIPPED YET, JUST ASK.
I AM ALSO SPENDING FAR TOO MUCH TIME TELLING PEOPLE HOW THIER GUN WORKS. THIS IS NOT MY JOB. I MAKE PARTS. I AM NOT RUNNING A SCHOOL. GET YOUR INFO FROM THE FORUMS. THAT'S WHERE I LEARNED.
cant miss it if you read it ;)
