Daystate Regal .177 ?

[jusanothajoe]

I have a Daystate regal in .22 and love it. At a 3000 psi fill I get about 40 good shots. Very user friendly right out of the box.
Wondering if anyone has a .177 Regal and could give me a review on shot count, fps, fpe, etc.
​I also have a AA S510 in .177 and it seems to be air hoggish, only get around 40 good shots on 3/4 power.
​What is your opinion ? regulator and tune the 510 or get a Regal in .177 ?
Very new to PCP so I don't know much about them.
Thanks

Pretty sure the AoA website says it’s a 18FPE gun. I don’t have one, so the rest of the info I don’t know.

I have both regals and the .177 gets about 50 good shots. Just a few more than my .22.

How do they compare accuracy wise at 50 yards?

I can do about three quarters of an inch with both. Mostly use for shooting starlings at dairy farm. No problem dropping them at 50 yards. I would like to quiet it down more, so I would like to hear from others on what ldc they use.

Cahil_2, I have a Regal in.22 and felt the same way as you, it was way too loud. The stock moderator doesn't do a thing for it, it's basically for show. Use a heat gun and warm up the barrel just before the moderator and it will spin off. They use loctite on the moderator threads from the factory and it takes a little heat to spin it off. I put on a DonnyFl Sumo and I'm thrilled with the results. Donny is a heck of a guy and he stands behind his products. Search his name and you will not read a negative thing about his moderators nor about him. There are also a bunch of guys who do sound test comparisons of various moderators including Donnys. His are usually a few decibels quieter, although you probably wouldn't be able to tell without a sound meter. You won't regret it if you buy a Sumo and his shipping is lightning fast.

Ditto on the Sumo from Donnyfl. My wife, neighbors,dogs ,neighbors dogs, all those that used to be within earshot all love it. My Huntsman .22 is now much quieter than my Marauder. Tom

Thanks. I really don’t want to increase the length of thr rifle too much, so I was thinking about the Huggett Belita but I may go with the sumo.

Will the Sumo screw right on ?

It should be no problem as long as you get the 1/2 inch x 20 TPI which is a common thread pattern for airguns.
