    Question Daystate Mk3's shots per charge.

    Am I right in thinking that Daystate no longer produce the mk3 with a regulator? if so does the new non regulated rifle produce as many shots per charge as the older regulated rifle.177???

    Mine does 88 within 20FPS
    And 110 within 30FPS.

    Thats the sport though.

    It says 120 within 24FPS in AGW.

    Daystate still make a regulated Mk3 (the RT)

    I get 120 decent shots from a fill of 220 BAR and I get about 60-65 very consistent shots for competition shooting on a fill of about 195 BAR.

    I think that's about average for everyone from the various posts I've seen on the subject.

    With my old RT (with a longer cylinder) I used to get over 160 shots with little variation on fps (about 10 IIRC).

    They still sell the FT-R - that's the new regulated version

    I get over 160 shots from both of my RT's with a total variation of <10fps.

    The MK3 S and ST are unregulated and do about 100 shots per charge in .177.

    The FT-R is regulated and does about 110-120 shots per charge in .177

    The RT has been discontinued, however if you order a FT-R with a ST stock, you essentially get an RT, so if that is the way you wish to go then a regulated sporter is still available.

    I get 65 better than good shots at 210 bar fill. Flatter trajectory than my Steyr/EV2/400
    Then it drops and I get 45 "normal" shots

    This difference is not noticable at hunting ranges but is at FT or long HFT ranges I see it.

    I'm not a ballistics expert and I don't know why it's flatter initially - the power variation is minimal but it definitely makes the rifle more forgiving.

    My MK3 RT in .177 does 160 shots with a maximum spread of 18 ft/second.

    Thats with a 220 bar fill.

    My Mk3 gives me 120 consistent shot (11.3ft.lbs) for a 200 bar fill. My Sport gives 80 (11.7ft.lbs) for a 205 bar fill.
