HAHA as far as that goes this has been a one sided abusive relationship. Finally getting some therapy:ROFLMAO:

Now that I have burned a few hundred dollars in ammo, might actually get some results! However I am completely okay with redoing my tune now that some of this stuff is making more sense. I would have never have guessed that that little rubber ball would cause that much difference

Ya'll were correct again! Removed the little rubber ball from the valve spring as suggested in an earlier post and gained a significant amount of FPS, I also got some calipers today, my c3 as mentioned above is at 5.78mm I figured that was good. I am unable to do any accuracy testing today as...

Ahhhh okay that is making a little more sense, so on tomorrows list of things I need to buy,, a set of calipers.... So if c3 isn't tight, how is it supposed to stay where it is put?

Well, that will be an easy fix for tomorrow, at least as far as removing the extra little ball. I guess I am not sure what the c3 is?

I'm not sure what c3 is. If its the piece at the end of the valve rod, yes I am certain that it is tight. You also mentioned rubber balls,, the stock valve return I had didn't have any rubber balls. the new spring that I have in there at the moment came with 1 and it looked to be fine when I had...

Reg ended up sitting just shy of 150bar, micro is almost maxed out and macro is on line 14/16, I couldn't gain any more velocity past these settings without moving the valve return.

Thank you all for the information, I got out and shooting this evening with what little daylight that I had. Per the above posts, I swapped out the tungsten hammer for the stock fx hammer. Slowly started working on setting reg and hammer settings till I maxed those to the point I was not...

I have a tungsten hammer here and ready to go, also have pin probe installed as well

What would you recommend for reg pressuer as a starting point? Watching Matt Dubber on YT, he's pushing like 170 bar on that reg. I have no idea so open for suggestions on that one as well

Gotcha, making some sense. Trying to get this darn gun to shoot accurately has humbled me infinitely more than what I thought was possible. To answer your most recent reply, using the heavy 'slug' liner from FX To kind of summarize, 1. Valve on 6 2. Adjust reg/hammer in tandem till 1k fps...

So based off that information, do you think having the valve all the way open (6) maybe that is part of the inaccuracy because the valve is open to long and causing turbulence?

Hello, As you may have seen from my previous posts I am STRUGGLING to get ANY kind of decent accuracy with slugs. I keep seeing posts, and videos everyone talking about "line 4" on their return valve, the return valve on my gun has 6 lines, which I read in the manual models do come with either...

If I went the route of getting the assorted box, what would you recommend to start speed wise? Should I try to tune the gun "hot" so the heavier pellets are fast and the lights are screaming. I know that is a loaded question because of the nature of tuning. I am just getting frustrated, and...
