Technical / Re: Huma regulator issues
Last post by Brooksy - October 27, 2026, 05:09:58 PMWhat pressure are you seeing on the tester?
Forgive me if you already know, but some regulators don't vary once pressurised, they only adjust when the pre chamber pressure falls.
Maybe you need to burp the tester to allow the core to move against the washers?

Technical / Re: Huma regulator issues
Last post by Ca_Varminter - October 27, 2026, 04:17:56 PMHave tried a New Delrin sealing disk??
Also on initial Setup, with the reg in the Bottle adapter
Screw in the adjustment screw until it JUST touches the Piston and delrin disk??
This should give you 0 psi... and backoff the adjustment screw a turn and check if this gives you a reg pressure!

Technical / Re: Huma regulator issues
Last post by woogie_man - October 27, 2026, 03:57:31 PMIm not getting the regulator to work... like at all.
When I connect the regulator to the tester I am only seeing the bottle pressure. I have adjusted the brass plunger both in and out and am not seeing a change. I have the washers set up the way that Huma has in their manual. Took everything down and cleaned up and assembled again.
My only thought would be the retainer part that threads in is to tight and not allowing the washers to work correctly.
I have installed a new stack of washers for the regulator. I am using the high power kit that will allow the reg to go to 200 bar.

Hunting & Shooting / Rabbit shoot with the new scop...
Last post by smithy123 - October 27, 2026, 01:28:58 PMNot been out for a while so was dusting the old trigger finger off, also testing out a new bit of kit I purchased the hikmicro 4k a50el lrf, brilliant bit of kit tad heavy but I shoot from a lied down position so not to bothered about that. Crystal clear even on x28 mag I forgot to adjust the parrelex when I was zooming to make the rabbit even clearer, never the less 10 bunnys down and a bonus pheasant!

Technical / Huma regulator issues
Last post by woogie_man - October 27, 2026, 01:42:10 AMHey guys
Say I have done a ton of testing with my external regulator and I am ready to put the regulator back into the the rifle. I have the regulator built and not missing any parts, but when I put the regulator on the tester and go to set things..... the regulator doesn't seem to be doing anything. I have adjusted the regulator both ways only to see no change on the tester. I am taking a break from it before I loose my mind and to avoid upsetting the wife with the noise.
Everything is clean and looks like it should, I am using a diagram from Huma to build the regulator, but nothing seems to be doing anything. What am I missing or doing wrong?

Chat about anything / Very close to retirement…
Last post by Kernal - October 26, 2026, 05:50:04 PMI've worked so, so hard, and now I can finally see retirement just around the corner... So, what am I going to do with myself?!
Well, knowing me, I'll probably still be out in the woods, making fires and cooking sausages, no matter how old I get! 😂🔥🌭
Without Marley, of course!
Yup, that's what I'll do... Keep things simple, enjoy the freedom, and do what makes me happy. 😊
