I’m sure you will be happy with the Royal.
I bought a .177 Royal years ago and have loved it from the start.
I had heard that the .177 had accuracy issues but mine is extremely accurate.
Like gerry said, clean the barrel when accuracy drops and it comes right back.
I’ll never sell my Royal.

I don't want to suggest scopes. The ones I have and use sort of came to me by "chance". I don't have the budget to allow me to spend a lot on optics (though I did luck into scopes that fit my needs and were above my budget). It depends on what works or appeals to each individual, what the budget is, what disciplines they'll be used for, how they fit one's physiology, etc. Mine were acquired more by "happenstance" than "intent" but they all work great for my purposes (hunting).
BTW, the Royale has Dovetail rails but there are all sorts of dovetail to picatinny adapters out there should you need.

Check out the optics section and put info in on what your uses would be and your wants and needs are. Lots of great choices these days!

Can't beat those rifles. Have an Elite (single shot Royale) a Boss and 2 Bobcat MkIIs. Only thing I've repaired/replaced are the regulators, and only because I don't have the time to use them frequently. Will easily beat any of the "funky" barreled new FXs to 100yds, and without a bunch of accessories. Just saying........

Lots of nice guns in here. Yes OP you will like the royale for sure. I guess I just fear with a reg and labor to install you probably could have picked up a crown. However, the royale is a great platform

I've owned both, and if necessary, I would pay more for the Royale. In the years that I have had my Royale I've done nothing to it except the rare barrel cleaning and adding a Boss Match trigger. In the 6 months I had the Crown, something needed attention on a too-frequent basis. Someone else was looking for a Crown, so my sale to him let us both improve our collections.

I recently picked up a GFX royal 400 from a local air gun shop here in Idaho on my first trip to the indoor range 25 yards it holds four or five shots almost pellet on pellet and then for no reason it will drift to the right and high I'll shoot two or three more shots to see if it's holding there adjust the scope to recenter and next thing you know two or three shots down there string it drifts again sometimes high sometimes low you never really know but it moves about 1/2 an inch does anybody have any advice what could be going on with this rifle I love everything about it except for that which I guess you can see would be a problem

My first of many pcps was a regulated .25 Royale from AOA . It is to date the most consistent and accurate pcp I've owned and the only one I regret selling. I wish it had been my 5th, 6th, 7th, etc., pcp because I would have known what a gem I had and likely would not have parted with it. I have a target that consists of 40 consecutive shots at 50 yards under a dime. I haven't been able to replicate that since with any other pcps I've owned.

I own a .25 Royale with the Huggett shroud and Grade 2 Stock. Very nice. Maybe I might sell to you.
