Been tweaking and tuning my sons Benji rega
l Np .177
for months now. Have replaced piston seal, barrel bushings, added NP guide sleeve. Trigger work and every path to get gun to settle down and get accurate has been done to little effect
SO ... Asked Crosman / Benjamin customer service for a replacement barrel receiving it Thursday.
Payed little attention to replacement barrel as parts pieces were changed over.
Test time and chamber up a .177 cphp and it FALLS DOWN BARREL
Oups !! ... Crosman sent us a .22 barrel
... what a brain fart on my part not noticing this !!
Ok, chamber up a .22 cphp and wala, nice fit. Take a few shots and all's well in .22 land
Clean out the barrel well with Goo Gone and patchs then outside to sight in and see how it shoots ?
** Hot Dang we got us a shooter !! .... few sighters and a fresh target at 30 yards.
9 shots in under a quarters diameter, 1 flier just outside by 3/8" or so
Well seems my son now has a .22 Regal NP

Son got his rifle back last night ... a bit of shooting and found some types / brand of pellets were NOT seating flush. Opening breach after closing was showing bent / deformed skirts
Out came the dremel with a cone stone followed up by a cratex point polishing up the increased chamfer
** few more pellets down range to check and indeed accuracy tightened up further yet !!
Right now across the Chrony has 14.3 CPHP's @ 650 fps .
Hope with tin or two more threw gun the Macarri seal breaks in further and we see closer to 700 .... time will tell.

Waiting for my maccari seal to break in too, about 300 rounds in and slowly climbing in fps. Sounds like your son has one nice shooter now!
