Re: FVA/RVA...best way to tune A-5?

The seller of that either doesn't know how the A5 works, is purposely preying on uneducated people, or both.

Agreed. It's almost funny except some people may "buy" into it. LOL

Oh great...a tool-less way to jack up your velocity when you are out in field. That's perfectly safe. *sarcasm*

lol look how far it sticks out. It's a guy that sells commercial grade parts with standard threads out of his house. It's even a comcast email.

Re: FVA/RVA...best way to tune A-5?

+3!!!
I just ordered a Palmers stab and stock w/RVA and this info will help a lot!!!

What is the ideal input pressure for the A5?
From what I have read seems to be 650-725ish???
What is a safe low pressure that the cyclone will still work properly?

I'm running Co2, no RT.

Thanks for all of the great info!!!

Re: FVA/RVA...best way to tune A-5?

ive done tons of research on this question and have read tons of posts. all my research has proven only YOU will know what YOUR A-5 will operate best at. it will take tons of tinkering, but in the end you will have found a perfect pressure range for your gun. ive read posts from people running below 550psi WITHOUT an LPK all the way up above 800psi. good luck and enjoy

Re: FVA/RVA...best way to tune A-5?

Yeah I figured that would be the answer, but at least it's confirmed, so thank you very much for passing it on.
I think I have researched enough to have a decent idea of the best way to dail it in...
