Use a chronograph. Turn the hammerspring counterclockwise. Take quaterturns and shoot a few shots. Like I wrote it can up to 23 ft/ibs but there is airwaist. I have tuned down to 22 ft/ibs shooting 20-22grain ZAN slugs. It just loves them. If I stuff a pellet in with this setting it does only 20 ft/ibs. If you shoot pellets only you might can gain air efficiency by set the power to only 20 ft/bs. From factory setting at 18 ft/ibs I get aprox 80 shots. I will turn my Revere back to factory setting and use it for pellets only. The Black wolf deals with slugs.ok
i think i need to adjust my hammer spring now …
On a side note, is there any danger of turning the hammer throw adjustment screw too far in and have it come out?You are not adjusting the hammer spring but the striker screw. It is more like a Benjamin Marauder where you shorten or lengthen the striker distance with the small screw in the hammer. You have to cock the gun and turn the hammer till you see the locking allen screw from the bottom. Loosen that before you can adjust the hammer striker from the rear small opening.
What your reg pressure ?Not sure. I always used a chronograph when adjusting mine. Shoot over chronograph to get speed, then adjust with a turn and shoot again. I always stopped when velocity peaked. Rifle usually arrives with the screw already set to max velocity. If you turn it in and don't see a rise in velocity after a couple of adjustments, I wouldn't go further.
Reveres are not high power builds. They are tuned to give you a good flat shot string over several shots. I air mine up to 200 bar and shoot down to about 140-150 bar. Gives me 60 shots of .177 with just a 20 fps rise of 880-900-880 with 10 gr pellets.
