A friend told me that an in-line regulator would smooth out the inconsistencies that I'm experiencing with my new RT Pro. When it came crono'd from AGD It had a rubberband around the grip with its crono settings ~172.4, 172.8 and 172.7. Using HPA I'm seeing something like 180, 171, 165 - I've tested this on 4 different cronos and my results are always sporadic. I've tried this on a full tank, half tank, bursts (to heat up the valve) and cold cronoing- nothing makes my shots more consistent. Would an inline regulator smooth this out? I've never seen one on a mag.. Thanks guys!

No. Regulators will just starve the valve.

Are you using the RT chrono procedure?

Thanks for that.

what are you guys talking about, shouldn't your velocity be near 300???

Depends on the field... And first things first- get the chrono readings consistent, THEN worry about low velocity.

300, I wish. Very rarely am I able to play with a group of serious players and I can crono @ 300. At most of the rec ball fields I play at 265-280 is std. That's actually why I was looking for the in-line reg for, I was hoping that it would make my velocity more stable. I have tried the crono procedures as recommended. Maybe this is something that will stabilize with more use??

Does anyone know what happened to Tuna? I sent him a couple of emails but I'm getting a system admin undeliverable message.. THanks!
