Do you have a chronograph? If not it's hard to guess what it is shooting at. If so what is it currently at? If not you will need to get one for tuning purposes.

I agree with Neu, the OP needs to give us some data for us to be able to help. About $20 will get you a very serviceable chronograph. Get one, fill the gun to 150 bar or so and shoot any 177 pellet you have through it until the velocity falls. Note the pressure. You reg is set a little above that pressure. Tell me what weight pellet you shot, the velocity it went before it went down and the pressure at which it went down. Lastly tell me what you want the gun to do differently. If you will do these things I or others will help you. If you do not tell us these things we can't do much.

Yes i do have a chronograph I used crosman 10.5 grain pellets it started out doing 685.7 ft/s 10.96 ft/lb in this sort of range and when pressured dropped it dropped to in the 500 s ft/s and 8.32 ft/lb, I just want to have it at 12lb and thankyou for your time
