what the subject says...the last time i played my velocity was all over the place. it was from the 240s-260s and wouldn't go any higher for almost the whole day. and it was bouncing around during the whole time like 10+/-fps. i had the screw all the way turned in 2. after lunch or so she finally made it up to the 280s but it was still inconsistant then. im wondering what is up..i've tried changing reg set, powertube spacer, and powertube oring. help me out. thanks

What gun are you using and with what type of air system?

gun in my sig with stock AIR valve. using my nitroduck preset n2 system at 750
Did you install lvl 10 on it. I have noticed since i installed lvl 10 the velocity has been a bit crazy. At the IAO it was going from 260-280. The paint/barrel was almost perfect. So perfect my dad yelled at me and my friend for shooting each other blow gun style. We were wearing masks of course ;)

Try another reg seat... Maybe the new one is just as bad as the old one.

will do but i've already tried a new one from my parts kit.
I get excellent consistancy with my Lvl 10 and AIR. +/- 2 fps on a bad day, it seems. I have shot strings in which every shot was the same velocity as the previous (285 at the time). I even have the original reg seat in there, and this thing is eight or so years old. Perhaps you need a good cleaning.
