it might have just been barrel breaks or rly bad paint. If you can try it with another type of paint that u know is good...

how's your ram alignment. if it's too far back you could chop a lot.

Are you chopping or getting barrel breaks?

Make sure your paint isnt too big for your barrel.
Make sure your ram is adjusted foward enough so when opening and closing your breech u get a nice amount of resistance.
Do sensi test about ten times. If your sensi is 100% you should get 10/10 passing. If not your sensi pad or rod might need replacing.

Dont use crappy paint. Bad paint will always give you problems. I always ask to look at the paint before i buy it. Make sure they are nice and round. And not all dimply. When I first got my gun i was using white box and getting lots of barrel breaks and chops due to inconsitancy in each ball. Always feed your gun the best.

try increasing your dwell and decreasing your velocity. it takes a little playing around with but it makes a difference on poor quality paint.

my dwell is set at around 20 and im chronoing at around 250-270 on my speed 04. when i upped the dwell i rarely break unless i get the wrong freak insert or have §§§§e paint.

decrease your velocity aswell. tried everything but the velocity when i was chopping, only to realise it was at max velocity...turned it right down and didnt have a problem at practice.
