Generally, @Motorhead would be right on this, but I bought the Huma reg for mine and it refreshes plenty fast enough for good semi-auto shooting - I practice double and triple taps sometimes with mine and there is no issue or loss of speed. Note that mine is a .22 shooting at about 34 FPE, so it might not be enough for a .25 at 70 FPE.
One thing that Huma does on the regulator for the Huben (at least on the reg they sent me) is they leave out any restriction screw to give a faster refresh rate. It works great, but it does lead to the delrin disc wearing out (leading to some creeping) a bit faster than on my other slower refreshing Huma regulated guns.
I am very happy with it, and it solved the issue I was having - my K1 shoots great at lower pressures down around 100 bar, but the factory regulator is not as stable as the Huma regulator down there. I get less ES with the Huma regulator than I do with the factory one, but I had to give up the external adjustability to get it.
If you order one, I'd definitely order some spare discs for it as you will likely need them eventually. You can turn the disc over and use the other side, but eventually you will probably want to replace the disc.
I wish I could get some of those discs made out of PEEK . . . .
