What the lowest PSI you have been able to hit an RT on?
Gun specs + tank specs please.

My 2 lowest settings:
CNC x-mag, 88ci 5k model dyna filled to ~2600psi, output approx 550psi
Euro X-mag, 68ci 5k model dyna filled to ~3300psi, output approx 700psi

On my 201 (your regs' little bro :) ) and a ULT w/ 5 shims, I was getting it at 600. It was a classic RT. I drilled it myself for the ULT, and I went a little extra deep, which has the added benefit of acting as a HP volumizer after the bolt is released. Though at 600psi, I'm not sure it makes any difference. It would just be a volumizer and not a HP volumizer since the operating pressure is probably about 600 anyway.

I've got this one preset (i-reg) that will rock the RT pretty good with one of my mechs. It could be the 1k piston in there but it also could be the 800. I have to check. I think its the 800 b/c there's only a 1k burst disc on the reg so it'd blow with a 1k right? Those are some decent regs. Good flow.

When you're hitting RT that low about how many cps is it doing and are you trying it with paint? I find that with paint they slow down somewhat.

With paint t-dog. however it is a slower RT than if I crank it up. an RT noneother the less

I still haven't tried mine with paint. And I couldn't sustain the RT, I just got a few 2-3 shot bursts. I'll keep this in mind and get some better data.

LOl you shim a ult up that much and it should be freight trainin on ye. I think what we should look for is the lowest pressure where it'll RT w/o the shims though b/c the ULT with the shims is kinda cheatin. Mags don't like lower inputs like 600 or so. I dunno worthwhile data to me means a setup that is truely playable and able to get decent RT effect. I'll have someone check the output of my tank later this week. I need to slap a gauge on a ASA for that.

Classic RT(lvl 7), Macdev conquest 68/45k tank at about 620 psi. Thats the lowest I can recall while still getting the RT effect.

My tac one, ult with 1 shim can rt down to 600 with my 68/3000 oldschool maxflo

IIRC my X-Mag was 580psi.
