My Notos does not shoot decent (5) shot groups at 25 yds until the air tube PSI gets down to around 2,600PSI. It then shoots (5) shot groups of around .5". Above the 2,600 PSI it throws quite a few flyers. The speed when it's above 3,000 PSI is around 740 fps. At 2,600 PSI the speed is just over 700 fps. I'm shooting the JSB 15.89 gr Hades pellet. Anyone have an idea why it does this? Thanks, 20PPC
Umarex Another Notos question?

Suggest trying a variety of pellets. Mine loves Norma 18 grain. I tried H&N, JSB, FX, JTS, and a variety of others in mine.
Your speeds sound about right.
I'm sure you've cleaned your barrel. You could consider recrowning it.
If you can't find a pellet it likes you can try tuning the HS.

I was going to recommend trying the 18 grain jsb too, or any heavier pellet just to see if keeping things in the barrel a ms longer helps.
The other thing I might suggest listening for air waste. This is sort of a learned thing so don't sweat it if you can't hear it. Wooshes or poofs after the shot would indicate to me that there is a large volume of wasted air coming out behind the pellet to disturb it. The notos is regulated, but even my fx guns with regulators (one with 2) have preferred fill points for prime accuracy. Best of luck on working this one out!

Reg or hammer settings.
You can get an inexpensive 1:1 spa pp750 reg from ebay. Sometimes regs will creep during fill. Your hammer may be low in the range. But sounds like youre creeping. Your reg may be set ridiculously high because that's how unregged guns behave.
Have you screwed your hammer spring adjuster all the in/out
The first shots are they really quiet?

I have not messed with the hammer spring adjuster, but I will take a look at it. The first shots are kinda loud. It takes several shots before it settles down. I'll probable try a new reg.
Thanks for the info guys. 20PPC
