Low velocity on Steyr

Hi, the velocity on my Steyr is a bit low averaging around 430 and sometimes going up to 475 fps, I've changed the regulator and the hammer spring. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get the fps any higher ?

Check the seals on the bolt. You may be getting leakage that would both drop the velocity and cause velocity variations.
Drape a piece of tissue over the top (but not covering any of the vent holes in the barrel), and see if it goes flying when you fire.
