Well it is a year and a half later now. I took the Compatto apart today and voided my warranty by removing the Transfer port power adjustment and drilling it out to 11/64". I replaced the spring with a stock spring from a .25 Marauder (tried a 12 lb spring but it just wasted more air) and adjusted the hammer striker screw to a position 2mm recessed from the hammer face. With a fill of 220 Bar and JSB 25.4 grain pellets the first shot was 834 fps for 39.24 ft/lb. Second shot was 824, Third was 805, Fourth was 795. There is a lot more tinkering to be done before I am satisfied but it is a start in the right direction. I did discover that the .25 DOES NOT HAVE the SLING SHOT HAMMER system. This was unfortunately misrepresented to many people as having the slingshot system which is only on the original .177 and .22.
What it really needs is a bottle conversion and a balanced valve like the one I put in my Marauder from Jefferson State Air Rifles ...................I'll probably tear it down to see how the valve might be improved and while I am at it port and polish the entire transfer port area.
