I've got a bit of an LPR problem. I sent my Angel to TAG in October, got it back super fast and it shot great the first day I played with it when I got it back. Then the prblems started. I was at practice and it was shooting fine for half the day then my shots started dropping off. I screwed with the dwell because it was really cold and snowy out and though that would help and it didn't. I got it home and check the LPR and it was at like 60 or so. I put every shim I had into it and got it up to 85 psi and then took it out and played with it one more time. Yesterday I pull it out to shoot and same problem my Velocity won't go over 220 fps so I get it home and check the LPR again it's like 75. Does that mean I have an LPR going/gone bad or should I go buy some more shims and try it again?

I had a probelm getting velocity up on my LED, it was a mini-reg problem. I'd take a look at that. I'm not sure how many shims you've got in there, but I don't think you should ever really have to put more than just a couple on there...

I've swaped it out for a centerflag because I thought that too but the reg wasn't the issue.

Then it probably is your LPR. You shouldn't have to put many shims in there. Is your LPR recharging fast? You might want to talk to TAG, explain him the problem, and see if he can go back and find what the problem is.

I had that happen to me once, snap ring was not set.

If you need help with adjusting the snap ring send me a PM or catch me up on AIM.

If adjusting the snap ring doesnt fix it, the spring stack in your LPR might have lost its spring.

I checked the snap ring but did nothing. I'm still sub 80 psi on the LPR pressure. Tried different regs, tried cleaning and lubing the LPR piston and it didn't do anything. I've got 4 shims in it to boot that seems like a ton to me.
