I saw a road up the mountain over looking Kaneohe bay —- look like a great place to shoot–like in LOST. love that HI weather! Lucky dog—-> I lived there for only 4 years back in 90-94, mostly surfing in Waikiki as my past time, and didn’t know they had AG. I had an R1 .20 but left that in cali.
Waikiki Beach is right down the street from where we live in Kaimuki ! 
We have a very strict Air soft regulation, is that one can’t be seen in public view with anything resembling a gun.
It has turned all us Airgunners here into snipers that shoot from cover. 😆
I test target shoot, test shoot and crony and plink sometimes at my 30 yard home range.
At this one farm I can shoot up to 280 yards !
I’m a Pester for the indoor shopping malls and the farm(ers) which I do for free, they have a hard time with the economy as it is.
Support your local famers, NO FARM = NO FOOD !
A 180 degree view of my 30 yard home range/bug-out shelter.
I crony and shoot at the same time to find that sweet spot !

I didn’t realize you hadn’t shot it over the chrony yourself…. till now.
Oakey I always like to at least see with my own eyes what it’s shooting when I get a gun…..
Either way. Now you have a reg tester to use so mine as well pull it apart and change them orings like ernest mentions… clean it all up
And set the pressure where desired
Thanks Ernest !!
My ES and SD seem to be fine with a shot count of 2,500 shot so far.
~ Greg
looking great—but man that’s a lot of shots–I’m lucky if I put that much in a year in my shorty—just got to many AG to shoot.
If I count all the pellets I shot through my crony I got everybody beat, seam like 40lb of lead every month, I should make my own .30 and .257 slugs—–maybe not to busy for that :sadn:
:biggrinn:

Ill take it off your tune FEE or maybe not :whistle:
Oak, I’d go 822 and take Ernest $5 bucks………………………….. :rofl:
Mine is set similar to yours, mines flush it’s at 820 also.
~ Greg
Haven’t open up my shorty yet—no reason 2, did you mess with your reg?
No, I have not but do you think I need to change the urethane O-rings inside the reg ?
~ Greg
I’ll take mine apart and see if they change the oring to D70 or 75. that urethane become vary hard with 150 bar pressing on the soft brass and aluminum. will inspect for wear and tear
Have fun Greg. And thanks for all the help!
~ Greg

I just wanted to see your max speed by doing this:
take 2 shots
turn hsta 2 hours back (think of it as a clock face)
take 2 shots
turn hsta 2 hours back
take a shots
keep doing this till you get the highest speed before the HSTA is flush with the action.
HSTA has a Rainbow affect on the speed, your way over the rainbow and wasting air—-we want to be on top of the rainbow to take a full string, to do that do what I said above–take 2 shots processes.
