| Thanks. Would you suggest sticking closer to a 200psi span if the gun will only be used with CO2? D

| Alright... that worked great. The female is set at 800 and I have no idea what the male is set at, but the screw is a few revolutions in from flush. I shot it over my Chrony in the rain out back. 270-ish with very little variation. So... I gave the male Stab a quarter turn in (+) and did the same for the velocity screw (which was pretty much flush with the rva). Shot about a dozen times to equalize all of that and then put some more paint over the chrono; 280... 281... 280... 280... 280... 281... 280... 281... 280... 280... This, with 3-year old Marbs from EMR. I am pulling off the gauge on that female and I am not touching this again until something happens. This will work just fine for me. Shooting it for accuracy, I put ball after ball (those that did not contact any raindrops that is) into the drain of the sink I use as a paint catch at 30 feet. Cool beans. D

  | Drum - I was also impressed with the performance. I guess that's why Paladin's Pride (Glen's Blazer) is set up that way. I love all that hardware and no gauges. Heh. Gee - I wonder what I did with your jersey?

 | I never thought two would make any difference if the first was working properly. This is based on my experience dealing with HPA and Acetylene regulators for welding. After reading your comments I think im going to try a dual regulator setup on a extra pair of tanks and see if I notice any differences. I have noticed that acetylene does cause some fluctuation in psi when in use, however HPA seems quite more stable while regulated... I wonder if it's the same with CO2 which is also relatively less stable then HPA. Any way, it's interesting that you see such noticeable changes in the performance of your markers with dual regulators. |

| With any HPA tank there is a regulator built in to the tank. Running that reg into a stabilizer is a "dual regulated" system. With co2 you have a pin valve into 1 regulator, a single regulated system. Running 2 stabilizers and co2 levels the playing field and makes co2 often even more consistent than HPA, especially in warmer weather.
