I played (for the first time bad idea) at madness this weekend with my new speed, and I had no fun at all. I had to put it away because with one trigger pull the gun would fire until I turned it off, and it was destroying paint.

I fixed the gun going full auto issue (just needed some toe adjusting), but the thing is still destroying paint like a fool. Its not chopping, my halo is working correctly, it blast them with an egg on also, I tried turning up the dwell, I tried all the sensi modes, the sensi is clean and functioning, I calibrated the sensi, and Ive done pretty everything I have read try and fix the problem If you have any other suggestions I would love to hear them. Oh yeah its not my paint to bore match either tried many combinations and different barrels.

3 things I would try:

1. Ram Adjustment
2. Try upping the sensitivity of the Halo
3. A4 Bolt

Past that, I'm not too sure I could help you without playing with it myself. Hope it works!

Got the A4 bolt on the way hopefully that will help, adjusted the ram earlier. To verify could someone post a pic of how the ram should look or give me a good description of where it should be. Not sure how to adjust the sensitivity of the halo could you explain.

The only time I have ever broken paint was when I shot brittle paint. Normally my speed can shoot anything but this paint exploded in every gun I tried it in. Make sure you use high quality fresh paint. Ram stroke is the only other culprit for your paint exploding. Set the ram by turning it in clockwise with a ram adjuster tool or circlip pliers until your bolt makes a small click with the rear of the hammer as you close the breach.

Okay well then the ram is fine that where its set. I was using the crucifire paint that everyone was using at madness and the paint I used in buddys shocker while my speed was being gay. It seemed to work for everyone else. Even my teammate who was also using a speed.
