Tuning FX Wildcat MK3 .22 Sniper factory settings

[twalt12]

I recently purchased a Wildcat MK3 a few weeks ago from StraightShooters.com and think I am going to sell/trade for the compact version. I just can't fall in love with the 700mm barrel. I made a huge rookie mistake and did not write down my factory reg pressure or hammer spring (fine) adjustment settings before I started tuning with some heavier pellets. I want to hand this rifle over with close to stock settings does anyone have a hammer springs screw measurement and factory reg pressure on a MK3 Sniper in .22. It only has 200 pellets down the tube. I will list it in the classifieds later but need to get my 10 posts first. 


Thanks

There is no such of think as factory setting on FX guns , if shoots accurate just leave the way it is.

If you need some numbers set regulator at 110 BAR back up HS little bit from full and start from there.

When you say back up hammer spring a little bit up from full. Do I turn it all the way in (clockwise) and the back it up from there. How far backed out from full? 1/2 turn or 2-3 full turns?

Correct all the way clock wise. turn back let's say one turn just be sure wheel operate correctly if there is to much tension on the spring you can't turn the wheel.

This is just starting point and every gun is different so if you like to tune your gun in the future I will recommend to watch some YT videos by Ernest Rowe.

Do you own chrony?

Put the reg on 100 bar ( or around) . Then shoot over the chrony in setting 7 and up the speed by just tensioning the hammerspring anti clockwise until you see not more speed increase. At that top speed dial your hammerspring back ( by the 1,5 mm hex) a few full turns. That is how you can deliver it to anyone who can do his own thing with it ... you need a chrony for doing all this kind of tuning though,
