Main Work
APEX Regulator & Tune (Includes a full service)
Model | Fill pressure after work | 0.177 | 0.22 |
GX 250 | 232 BAR | 120+ shots | 120+ shots |
The APEX regulator & tune packages are designed to make your rifle more consistent and air efficient, not more powerful. All sub 12 (non FAC) rifles are set to around 11.5ft/lbs after any work is done, keeping you well within the legal limit.
Features of the APEX Airguns Regulator:
- UK-Made: Designed and manufactured in the UK, home to the most demanding airgun shooters.
- CNC Machined Components: Crafted from premium materials for stable performance.
- Overlocking Piston Design: Prevents pressure shift and regulator creep.
- Fully Ventilated Spring Chamber: No pressure build up over time to maintain a constant velocity.
- High Resolution Pressure Setting: Ensures mechanical stability.
- Easy Reading and Setting: Clearly engraved body and adjuster markings.
- Modular Design: Allows quick adjustments and settings in our APEX Regulator setter.
- Serviceable Design: Fully strippable without altering regulator pressure.
- Longer Service Intervals: Only 3 large section seals for greater reliability.
- Adjustable Pressure: Ranges from 20-170bar, maintaining pellet speed and accuracy.
As Well as fitting a regulator and tuning the rifle we also engrave the breech block with the words RAT WORKS as a way of showing that your rifle has been regulated and tuned by us, this is free of charge. If you would like extra engraving as well please select from the drop down menu above and you will be charged accordingly.
When the work is done by the RAT Works the action is extensively worked on to increase the performance, efficiency, accuracy and overall feel of the rifle. Almost every aspect of the rifle is modified, changed or enhanced in some way. Below is a list of all the work under taken as part of the tune.
Hammer Mechanism
- Ensure the assembly is free of any oil, grease or debris which can cause consistency issues
- Replace hammer spring with one of a more efficient design for use in regulated BSA rifles
- Polish the bearing surfaces in the hammer
- Hammer latch pin modified
- Custom made hammer weight & guide to minimize hammer noise & decrease strike time
- Generally, to benefit the rifle further the hammer replaced or modified.
Loading assembly
- Loading probe modified for better airflow, pellet feed and smoothness
- Bearing surfaces polished
- Probe guide and pellet tray are modified for a smoother cocking and loading cycle
- Cocking is modified on early models to remove the need to pull the bolt back further when loading a magazine
- If you include the magazine with your rifle they are also modified to remove any loading issues such as jamming whilst cycling
- Lubricant is added to parts of the assembly to allow a smoother action
- Bolt lock up mechanism is modified for more responsive and smoother movement, also increasing the rifles consistency.
- Bolt flip upon firing is removed or reduced as much as possible with the Gamo bolt setup
Exhaust valve, transfer port & barrel
- The exhaust valve stem assembly is modified to run more efficiently
- Valve is refaced and modified for a faster flow
- Valve body is modified for better airflow through the firing cycle increasing efficiency
- The valve pressure is reset to give a better performance and reduce the power variation of the rifle between heavy and lighter pellets
- The transfer port is modified to give more air flow efficiency
- Breech face modified to reduce wear on the pellet when loading
- Crown of the barrel re-cut the to increase the rifles accuracy
- Transfer port and barrel are aligned securely within the assembly
- Barrel is secured into the breech more accurately and securely than standard
Trigger assembly
- Hammer latch pin polished & refaced
- Trigger pin assembly is reinforced to reduce movement from left to right
- Trigger let-off is set to a comfortable and safe amount.
- Basic factory trigger adjustment screw replaced allowing greater range of adjustment
- 2nd stage trigger creep reduced to zero/minimum possible with the Gamo trigger.
After the regulator is fitted and the tune carried out you can expect a shot to shot consistency of single figures as soon as the rifle has been worked on. A report sheet will be included with the rifle once work is complete detailing the shot to shot consistency through our SKAN chronograph, the rifle is held correctly in a mount to guarantee accurate results. This consistency will improve further as the rifle is used.
PLEASE NOTE: We are not able to work on rifles fitted with aftermarket regulators other than ones we have fitted ourselves.
Carbon Shroud
These bespoke carbon fibre shrouds are not only stunning to look at, they are lightweight, perform exceptionally well and are extremely quiet due to the internal moderator incorporated into the shroud and our latest air stripper. These are whisper quiet and are a must if your shooting in and around buildings, livestock or near a public space. The different diameters are just as quiet as each other but do offer two different looks. The larger 30mm being the more popular one of the two, whereas the 26mm looks sleeker and better for low mounted scopes.
Custom Engraving
We can engrave either our logo or a logo/image of your choice, this can only be done on wooden/laminate stocks not on 'tactical' or synthetic stocks. We can also engrave on the breech block of the rifle if your chosen design is suitable to be engraved in a small space. We love personalising rifles, the more imaginative and meaningful to you the better!
