hi i bought a 98c that has the lp kit installed and has the tippmann regulator, i know this isnt the best one in the world but its going to have to do for a little while until i can replace it. my question is how do i properly adjust the reg to make the best use of the lp kit and marker, i dont have a secondary gauge, and from what ive read the tippmann reg can only adjust to about 600psi?? doesnt make sense to me because i thought the lp kit was able to function at around 400-500psi. i dont have the rt/e kit just basic semi. and im using a 47ci/3000 tank.

thanks for any insight!

You are going to need a chrono. First you screw the velocity screw on the gun flush with the wall of the gun. Then adjust the regulator until you have 300-310 fps. Then get the desired velocity with the velocity screw.
