So as long as you are shooting in semi, the reg should be pretty consistent without break in time.

Just what I have noticed with testing regs myself.
The info Im suggesting could be disputed, but it makes since to me.


Actually it has more to do with springs and valves seating themselves at the pressure you dialed in. Theres nothing inside a reg that moves with every shot, the stem may move a hair due to small pressure drops every time you fire, but theres nothing inside that moves and slides on orings as described above.

I got your package out by the way WC
