Hi Matt
Great video as usual!
I shoot a regulated Hw 100 and would agree that for 100m or more you can't beat a reg guns low ES.
Those reactive targets look fantastic - how did you make them?
Thanks again for the video,
Chris

Thanks Matt for another informative video, you have put my mind at ease while I am waiting for my Royale 500 with a regulator fitted to arrive, this will be my long range airgun ( 100yds for now ) and my first air rifle that is regulated, can't wait should be interesting.

Thanks Chris
The targets are actually just Coke bottles pumped up to 6 Bar with some talcum powder inside
It's plenty of fun!Matt

All you have to do is buy some car/bicycle valves and fit them to the lid of the bottle. The bottles are made to hold 10+ Bar of air so you can really pump them up.

Thanks, Matt, for another informative and entertaining video. You managed to answer several questions I had concerning regulators and provided an excellent source for further research! Good job!

Matt, did you notice any difference in accuracy whether you filled the air tube to 200 or 250 bar? Is the 250bar fill your normal fill pressure now? I know some guns even regulated still have a preferred fill pressure I guess due to minute air tube flexing. Can you elaborate more on the air tube's max fill pressure? I've got my S510 Carbine regulated now and love it.

Oh, I'm aware of making bottle targets using valve stems see:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B008FHWZOY/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?qid=1444533180&sr=8-6&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70&keywords=valve+stem&dpPl=1&dpID=51qIW7g1qnL&ref=plSrch
By drilling a 1/2 inch hole in the lid and screwing the valve stems in. (Can't remember if you need to turn down the valve stem base or not)
I just was showing a product for those that don't want to DIY.

Going off topic here but I did some research and found these:

Hi Jimmy
No I didn't notice any difference in accuracy. I'll fill to 250 Bar when hunting pigeons (where I KNOW I'll be taking more than 50 shots) but for backyard or target shooting I usually fill to 220 and that gives me at least 30 shots.
