I remember first seeing that guide years ago - it became my go to guide for anything to do with regulators - still set my regulators to the pressures in BLUE 👍

It must have been around 2003 we did that.was from an anschutz rapid with early type reg.
Originally it was done for airgunforum were davel was the head man.happy days.

I was using a very old tatty copy of this today.  Although still helpful my reg with I think micro core was different enough to require a bit of head scratching!

They are basically same reg apart from how they held together.later regs just have thicker orings and got the facilitie to slightly adjust core travel.the early version was used on a couple of mk1s which had actions re ported before theoben started using them.
