Had a Regal .22....what are you filling it to? If I remember correctly, my flattest string was when filled to 210-215 bar....like yours non regulated but with sling shot hammer.

I haven't had a nonregulated gun in a long time. But, as mentioned above, I think your fill pressure is critical, as it will drop off more rapidly from a full fill, before reaching a more stable pressure level. It's been a long time, and I may be wrong.

What is your fill pressure? Does your shot string have a bell curve or does the fps start off high and constantly drop off?

The fps starts off high and constantly drops off. I have shot about 25 or 30 shots, and it just goes down.

Are you filling to the max pressure ? Doesn’t sound right for a daystate. Sounds like an un regulated hatsan. Reducing HS a bit will lower velocity but should increase consistency a bit.

Back the hammer spring down just a little and see if it gets better
maybe try a smaller transfer port go 2-3 thou smaller should help

Can anyone verify that the hammer spring on the Revere is externally adjustable?
I ask because the Huntsman Regal does not have that feature.
And my understanding is that the Regal (Huntsman too?) leaves the factory with the proper hammer spring, transfer port, etcetera.
There should be no need for further tuning to get a good bell curve, (as opposed to the cliff the OP is experiencing)

I don’t own a Daystate….but I’ll take a poke at this
You’re either not filling the gun enough. (Don’t fill it past max fill)
Or you hammer is to heavy.

I have a confession to make my compressor only fills to 3000 lbs, ( old military compressor ) so I shoot from there. This morning I hand pumped it to 230 bar. which is the recommended fill, still does the same thing, so I adjusted the hammer spring down to shoot at 750 fps, But it still does the same thing. I would be better off with a standard hammer and just shoot it at the top of the bell curve. Maybe I will just sell it and not worry about it anymore.

I guess I will go back and shoot my Daystate Harrier and Logan Solo, They work just fine and I dont have any trouble with them.

@Frank d
Now that you have conformed there is a hammer spring adjuster;
May I suggest rather than giving up, you learn more about tuning a regulated rifle.
Here's a good place to start.

hardairmagazine.com
You can also ask "How to tune my regulated gun" in the forums (here or GTA) and get some good advice.
Especially if @triggertreat responds.
Hope this helps!
That's too nice a rifle to just give up on

The first thing you need to understand when tuning regulated PCP airguns is that for any PCP there is a maximum velocity for a given pellet,

Frank, you can get a Huma or Lane regulator for it...FYI.....then you'll get that flat regulated string you are looking for
....Regals are great PCP's in my humble opinion.Upvote 0
