Just wanted to share my results on my .22 Gauntlet after I added shims to the regulator. First off I would like to thank Hajimoto for all his hard work. His step by step video made this reg adjustment so easy to do. I shot my gun for about a week before I shot it though my chronograph and here are a couple of my results.
15gr Beeman field target specials- average speed 806fps
18.13 JSB exact jumbo heavy - average speed 749fps
My reg was factory set at 1100psi with .015 shim thickness. I added another .015 for a total of .030 shim thickness and now my reg is reading 1300psi. Now here are my results.
15gr Beeman field target specials-average speed 883fps that's 25.9fpe and a gain of 77fps
18.13 JSB exact jumbo heavy -average speed 824fps that's 27.3fpe and again of 75fps
Very happy with the results and very happy with my Gauntlet. I'm curious to see if my shot count dropped, that's my next test. Hope this info helps. Jon
