My rage A1 is pretty loud and kicks when i shoot it and was pretty rough on paint today. My LPR is set at 60 Psi and my dwell at 6.5. I had it shooting 260-275 fps. It was jumping +,- 15 fps. I donno whats wrong with it.

it was jumping in chrono because:

1- your paint to barrel match was bad
2- your regs arent broken in enough
3- your regs need to be greased/serviced

You can lower your LPR pressure to around 55-57. Be sure to set your HPR to around 270psi first then set your LPR pressure. Clean and relube your regulators. Match your paint to your barrel bore. Then see how it shoots.

What Matt7 said. Poor paint can give you problems like this too. If the balls are not all the same size the FPS will go up and down. Not the markers fault.

yup the seasons are changing now, I was shooting proto at the weekend and had same issues with paint swelling etc causing fps and ball break issues all day. I gave up in the end and put over sized bore in it just to finish the day......

you should take a look at the exhaust stem to see if it has come apart or is real worn.

I only added 1 shim to the LPR because earlier in the day it wouldnt crono above 240. Ill check my valve stem tho. And i was shooting Chronic premium.
