Sounds like you need to break it in before trying to troubleshoot this problem. The problem will probably go away before the break in period is completed.

well if it creeps up and u take 2 or 3 shots and its back to normal thats pretty normal, my gun does it still and i have a lot of paint through it. it only happens when its hot really, just make sure u take clearing shots before chronoing so u dont get penalties if ur losing points.

Creeping is a sign of something leaking, in this case the mini reg, probably. Now it could be that it's just from not being broken in and that's what I would treat it as.
I would like to say that the fix for creeping is replace the o-rings as needed and lube. Creeping for a broken in marker is not normal and firing a few shots will be a temporary fix it does not solve the problem and more than likely the problem will get worse and worse. Don't cheat the problem, fix it.

Well i did take apart the mini reg and it stopped for the most part but it was still jumping +/- 10

hmmm, what should i do to correct this problem? i dunno if its all the time, cause i always fire clearing shots before hitting the chrono just in case

Check out the o-rings on your mini reg. Add some grease to the o-rings and then add a little oil to the air intake. While every now and again is nothing to get your panties in a knot but if ti's frequent enough to worry about then you should look into what it is doing it.

I *think* that he meant squeegee down the barrel, not the feedneck.
I think.
