The issue is not shoot down because you will cease to recock properly before you reach it.

You might tinker a little lower pressure especially if you put is a Madmann spring set for $10. Put the lightest spring in FRONT of the valve and the necessary hammer spring in to get the range of muzzle velocities you need for play.
450-500 psi might happen. Remember, Reliability is the goal. NOT lowest pressure... You can't push it to the "edge" of not working and expect it to work flawlessly in all temperatures and operating conditions...

For example we play scenerio games and the night games turn everyone down to 250 fps. Day game is 300 fps. So we use a spring that one can adjust ONLY the velocity screw to make that adjustment within that range. Otherwise you have to change springs out for night play.
