I've read some threads but I am still a little bit confused.
It's my first angel and today it was my first game on it.
I got Blue dust speed with longest wdp volumiser on it.
Dwell - 13
minireg - adjusted to keep right velocity
Sensi mode 2
Paint - ZAP Chronic and Ultimate.
LP Crossfire tank 45/4500 450 psi output
Also got SOFT FACE BOLT in my toolbox but some guyz told me that I should adjust RAM after putting soft face bolt on my speed (don't have keys).
It chops like a hell. I got HALO B and EVO@Y. At evo I could shot some guyz without chop but when using halo grrr... "☼☼☼☼ happens" :P
I don't have an angel toolkit and want to try my best to set my marker work fine.
Could you tell me what setting would you recomend me for no choping game :)
Please let me know as fast what I should do.
I am playing tourney in 2 days and guyz I NEED UR HELP :)))))

First I need to chrono to nearly 300 fps using the minireg screw with MAX(19ms) dwell settings. Set Dwel down by step and when the velocity starts to drop rise dwell up by one click - right ? :)

Koziol, I know that this is your first experience with your Speed but the Halo+Speed=Chop issue has been beaten to death... a search on these threads will do you much better than any of us trying to recap, but here's what i remember off the top of my head
1) stronger detents
2) soft-faced bolt which you have
3) readjust ram
4) turn down halo pressure

like i have said before if you still have the stock barrel u will chop because its bore is to small. and u have it in sensi mode 2, if you are trying to shot fast and long, u should switch it to mode 3. if all else fails post here again for more help!

Its the halo. What's happening is that your detents aren't strong enough to deal with the force feeding Halo. First make sure you have fresh batteries in your Halo. Second take out your detents and stretch the springs a bit then reassemble your detents and put them back in. The added tension from the stretch strings should help to keep the Halo from beeding a ball and a half and keep you from chopping.

The last thing would be to grease the belt in the Halo.

one thing they missed, you dont need to adjust your ram if you change bolts. Other than that, they told you what you need to do

How would that cause a chop, u would break paint in ur barrel, but the barrel has no effect on yur bolt catching a ball inbetween the feed necka nd breach.
my stock barrel has done me quite fine aswell.
Perhaps I am getting Chop and Break mixed up.

... I fail to see how this will make you chop. Unless you are using some freakishly sized paint.

The stock barrel is like .692, so If you break because of to small bore size, you must be shooting medicin balls..

it is good to adjust the ram when changing bolts. don't need to go into detail why. also with all the threads on the angel/halo combo should of been a no brainer to stay away from the halo. sensi don't likey halo. grease the drive since you have paid your 130 for the loader and strech or get stiffer dents.
