The Royale is pretty efficient

FX Cutlas: 185cc 200-180 bar 14.3g Accupell (.22) 7 shots 967fps average

avg FPE/cuin per shot 0.92
avg Bar-cc/FPE per shot 17.8
avg FPE per shot 29.7
avg PSI used per shot 41

Does that put my efficiency as Fair to Good?

According to your figures and typical PCP examples on the page, yes it does buddy.

Here's mine in the same format:
FX Royale: 400cc 200-180 bar 15.9g FX Airguns 5.52 (.22) 60 shots 570fps average

Avg FPE/cuin per shot 1.49
Avg Bar-cc/FPE per shot 11
Avg FPE per shot 12.1
Avg PSI used per shot 5

Considering this rifle is unregulated, it's a tribute to FX Airguns design and engineering and of course the component quality used in manufacturing - there are some makes of airguns that would struggle to get anywhere near these figures even with a regulator fitted as standard.

I have also input my figures for 190-170 Bar and 170-155 Bar. It seems as the cylinder pressure drops the Cutlas' efficiency improves. Both of these are now in the Good range.

I would be interested in the FX Royales numbers when tested at 30FPE. In other words, how does the efficiency change between 12 FPE and 30 FPE.

FX Cutlas: 185cc 190-170 bar 14.3g Accupell (.22) 12 shots 958fps average
avg FPE/cuin per shot 1.03
avg Bar-cc/FPE per shot 15.9
avg FPE per shot 29.1
avg PSI used per shot 36

FX Cutlas: 185cc 170-155 bar 14.3g Accupell (.22) 7 shots 918fps average
avg FPE/cuin per shot 1.11
avg Bar-cc/FPE per shot 14.8
avg FPE per shot 26.8
avg PSI used per shot 31
