A cavity-based FEL is not a new concept - the first FEL was an oscillator operating at 3.4 um - but single-pass amplification of spontaneous radiation was the fastest path to gigawatt x-ray powers. One unproven component of a CBXFEL is a stable, high reflectivity cavity. To address this deficit we present ring-down measurements in a 20 m round-trip cold cavity operating at 9.8 keV. The cavity is composed of four strain-relief-cut diamond 400 Bragg mirrors and a transmission grating for in/out-coupling. It is a testbed for alignment protocols and component performance under realistic experimental conditions like source instability, optics imperfections, and thermal drift.}}, }
