The Hunt & Live take

Why this regulator earns the pick

Altaros designed this drop-in around the simplest possible install workflow — and the Beeman Chief II family is the platform that benefits the most from that approach. The Chief II is a budget-tier PCP at the partner; the buyer profile is somebody who wants a meaningful upgrade without sending the rifle to a smith.

The whole install is: degas the rifle, remove the front fill cap, slide the Altaros down the pressure tube with the included threaded rod, screw the fill cap back on. No drilling. No machining. No special tools. The verified buyer review on the partner page captures the install experience: “Fits the Beeman Chief II Plus (Model 1335) perfectly and work well. Easy to adjust too. Need to swap the o-ring in the bag with the one already installed on the regulator - then it fits and seals up nice.”

The 100-150 bar adjustable range is the right window for the Chief II family. The rifles max out at 250 bar fill; setting the regulator at 130 bar gives roughly 40-50 shots of identical velocity per fill versus the 15-20 shot consistent window of the stock unregulated valve.

What it pairs with

  • Beeman Chief II — the original host rifle
  • Beeman Chief 2 Plus (Model 1335) — Plus variant, same fit (per verified buyer review)
  • Beeman Raider — newer Raider variant in the same family
  • Beeman QB Chief — same architecture, this regulator fits

Honest trade-offs

Currently out of stock. Altaros production cycles through; email Wes at support@airgunarcheryfun.ca for ETA.

O-ring swap on install. The verified buyer notes the bag O-ring fits better than the preinstalled one — small detail, but worth knowing before you put the rifle back together and find it leaks.

Adjustment requires re-disassembly. Unlike a side-mounted regulator with external adjustment, this one sits inside the pressure tube. To change the setting you degas the rifle, pull the regulator back up the tube with the included rod, adjust, push it back down. Plan to dial in your pressure once and leave it.
