Recently got a Revere .22 highest power version according to Daystate specs should do 20 shots @ 40 ft/lbs.
I came with the regulator set at 195bar, which i found rather high, but rifle was only shooting at sub12 power. So obviously hammer wasn't adjusted accordingly. Checked with the dealer and got some reasoning according to law, export, blah blah they come underpowered. New to me but ok, no biggie, i adjust the hammer and in the meantime check with Daystate regarding the 195bar reg setting which they confirm is normal for this version.
Problem is, and i went though the whole hammer spectrum only working with small increments, to reach the advertised 40 ft/lbs i only get 11 shots instead of the advertised 20 before it falls of the reg. Going to 30 ft/lbs, which is fine for me, i get short of 25 shots instead of the advertised 45 shots.
Sent rifle back to dealer whom confirmed my results and did further testing on the rifle by also adjusting reg pressure but cannot get the rifle up to the specs of 45 shots @ 30 ft/lbs 20 shots @ 40 ft/lbs. Dealer tested another rifle from same lot and has same results so they are now dealing with Daystate regarding.
Brilliant rifle otherwise, laser accurate, great trigger, fab stock... can't flaunt it.
Haven't heard anywhere about a Revere not performing up to the advertised specifications? Anybody with a similar experience?
