Im sorry Rick, but your responce seemed kinda snarky to me. May be you didnt mean it that way.
If it works as it should, it would make great sense. As I stated, mine might just be a dud. As for the initial review, my advise for my GTA family here is not to get one until I get it worked out. We take care of each other here. I am sure Vince will help me out with it. I have spoken to him on the phone and he seems like a great guy. The valve is no reflection on him. There might be something I can do without having to mod the rifle to much.
In the letter and instructions I received from him, there was one guy who was getting 50 shots at around 29 fpe. He had to mod his valve and drill a hole in the pressure tube to keep the manometer installed. He had drilled out his barrel port, transfer port, valve exhaust port, valve chamber and open up the port after the valve a little. Another guy on another forum was getting a 9fps spread in his shot string using a 130 bar reg. Vince was getting a 50 shot string 26/27 fpe with minor valve modifications. In a 20 shot string starting at 2600 psi I was getting a 32+ fps spread with a 18fpe ave with cphps. I had my rife set up prior to the reg and was getting a 13fps spread with a 824fps/22fpe ave spread, so yes I was getting better results without the reg.
