I use a FoodSaver V2244 to repackage/reseal hops. I have found that the FoodSaver bag material leaves a lot to be desired.   I have yet to have a sealed bag lose vacuum when I use the vacuum sealing plastic that Johnson and Johnson manufactures (Ziploc brand).  I use the 8" roll when breaking down hops.  I pretty much only use whole hops.

Try taking the foam rubber seals out, clean them up, reinstall with the unsed edge up. Might work
