I hate regulators

[tomahawk]

I have one factory regulated rifle, the DAR G3. It's pretty consistent, but I would agree if you can get your springs and ports/pressures right for your barrel length, no need for a reg. I never regulated any of my 2260/disco pcp builds and I would have a nice tight ES in their power curve. Finding the pellet it likes and gives the tightest spread is also part of it all.

I have a huma ready to drop in my Kral Mega and I'll probably do that this weekend after I get a full shot string to compare with. Hopefully I can increase my shot count dramatically and not lose much power. It's set up with a 16" 177 barrel doing 16 fpe and I know it's getting at least 56 shots in that range already. If I can tune it for 6 mags/84shots in that power range I'd call it done. If it makes it any quieter, it'll sound broken lol. Running a full shroud with an air stripper and 8 Mrod baffles, all I can hear now is a click and the pellet hit.

Interested in your DAR gen3,couldn't figure out how to pm you.Can you pm me ? TIA

Agree to disagree, we all have our likes, desires, and preferences; the truth is that there is more than one way to set a rifle to attain an ideal end result. I have several tuned M-rods that are all running regulators. Each one has a higher than stock shot count, higher fpe, and a lower fps spread between shots. I'm sure that we all have tuned our rifle in a manner that we believe is the right way. The truth is that there is "NO" absolute right way because we are all looking for similar results in different fashions. Consistency, Accuracy, and Efficiency are the main targets. Power and Range all depends on personal desires. 25 cal 44gr slugs @ 980+ isn't what everyone is wanting. It's nice when you're able to compete against the HIGH END rifles with confidence knowing that your rig has the five keys of greatness.
