choping and breaking balls

Chopping- The balls don't feed fast enough and the bolt goes forward and crushes the ball.

Break- The ball splaters inside the barrel on it's way out.

Chad, if you don't mind, I'm going to copy your post into the dictionary. :D

[Chad51]

Okay that's cool with me. :D

If you have a detent that should prevent chopping though right?

[HondaRacer2120]

no, the sole purpose of a detent is to keep the ball from:
A. rolling out the barrel when the gun is tipped down
B. moving so that the bolt will still hit it
C. double feeding
