Jimmy is very observant! In my 177 Gen I, I just tried out the AGE regulator and Motorhead LW hammer, then tore it all out and went back to stock to retune to a similar energy level to see what I could get without the regulator.

With regulator, I was getting about 70 shots with 10.34 grain pellets at 890 FPS plus or minus a few fps from a 3000 psi fill. Velocity was very consistent, but I had to wait 5 seconds between shots for the regulator to stablize.

With just stock parts, I am getting 910 fps minus 36 FPS for 50 shots with a 2500 psi fill and that is with quick tuning. I'm sure I can reduce the peak power to get more good shots per fill. This tune would work well with your 3000 psi SCUBA tank.
