I would run another string to see if the regulator has setted in before making any adjustments.
I was under the impression my 1358 doesnt have a regulator…does the 1357….Ive never shot my PCP ‘s close to empty….so have no accurate shot count…but from reading today stock shot count is short…I see now why u folks tend to tinker and stretch them out..lol…good luck
Helped with hammer bounce, still has the ping to it though. Hard to say if that's the hammer spring or air tube making the noise.

Does the Beeman hammer have enough thickness to do that? If you have changed the spring, that would tend to suggest resonance in the tube I would think.
Little update after a few days of playing with different hammer springs and playing around with a bstaley o-ring mod, so far so good. Stock spring with 2 coils cut and 2 turns in from flush, and 2 2.4mm orings in the appropriate diameter. 1 behind the hammer stop ( not sure what it's called) and 1 in front of it. Starting pressure was 3000psi to right around 2000psi. I'll do some more tomorrow and try 2.5 turns on the hammer spring ideally I would like high 700's to low 800's.

Can you remember the settings for that one?Maybe try a short nylon or delrin top hat type spring guide similar to SSP?

Can you remember the settings for that one?Maybe try a short nylon or delrin top hat type spring guide similar to SSP?I would have to look back at the data, I've since moved on to try and get more power out of it which seems a little harder to get a decent shot string. Currently trying to get it at a stable mid to high 800's. It shoots the knockouts really well at those speeds but it spikes to the mid 900's for about half the shot string and the poi shifts a lot with those. I may try and come up with some kinda limiter for the valve pin to only open a certain amount.
