I received my new .22 GK1V3 regulated a few days ago. I asked for about a 20ftlb tune with 16gr pellets. The regulator is set to 165. It arrived full @ 300 bar, cool. So I put my SUMO on thinking that should be OK for the basement, wrong this thing is loud. I can't imagine shooting in the backyard with it set to 40 ftlb...
I checked the speed and it was right around 800 fps. I was in the process of printing a couple of
@subscriber contributions and put off shooting any more until I could try them. It turns out that the round 6" offset hole is a bit better than the medium dual cylinder and both are better than the SUMO. Still to loud to shoot in the basement without disturbing my wife and dog. Not a big deal I can just turn the power down. I'm only killing paper.
KRAZ COOL had the power turned out 1.5 turns, it's now at 1. Speed is now about 620 and 13.7ftlb. This made a very noticeable difference. Next time I'm going another 1/4 turn lower.
Yesterday I shot 190 pellets (19 round mag) and wasn't thrilled with the 10 yard results. Quarter size 5 shot groups with an occasional flyaway outside that. Mounted by the way, no freehand. Humm, hope it gets a lot better if I polish the barrel. Then I saw flakes on the table, lead flakes lots of them?
Loading the mag is a chore! Not fun at all. I was shaving off part of each pellet during the load process. Good thing my Rustic Industrial Customs loading gate showed up today

Installing it made a big difference. Dime size holes no fliers. It still takes longer to load than a removable mag. It takes no time at all to empty the mag! Speaking of the mag, wow it is pretty violent when indexing shots. No wonder there needs to be what is it? 140 bar to insure full proper movement. And if it dosen't make the full index it backs up to an empty chamber.
It's easy to get carried away pulling the trigger

. This gun is fun to shoot for sure. Maybe it's a good thing it takes a while to load.
