ok i go out to play today and im all happy i got my nitro and elcd and cp barrel and this is the first time i've played with this setup...i was playing with slamballs
ok i shoot a couple on semi and there curving alll over the place i was like uhhhh this shouldnt be happening anyway all day the balls were curving and shooting at like 340 FPS everyone tells me to turn my vlocity down so i go to unscrew it and part of my velocity thing broke off and is stick in there all the way down...is this the problem? i got it out but were my balls curving cause of the high velocity i had many ball breaks 2 let me know thanks

my friend had this gun. it is a piece of $#@$!. His broke the same way yours did. cept he didnt have any upgrades. sorry I couldnt help but just tellin ya its a flaw in the gun not in all ur upgrade stuff.
If you insist....I think your question was did your velocity cause your balls to curve. The answer to that is probably. Other things could have been a factor, but at a velocity over 300..if the balls don't break in your barrel, they are at least deformed from the force of the air hitting them. This will cause them to curve all over the place. The ball breaks probably didn't help much either. I have found that paintballs travel pretty good at about 280. Any more than that and they will fly all over the place.
As far as your gun goes. Do whatever you want. Nobaody has to play with your marker but you. If you like the way it feels and you have confidence in it, then you will be a better player for it no matter what anybody says.
I hope this helps you original post was kinda confusing.

when i have my velocity really high, the accuracy really blows. The balls to curve, so i would think that ur Velocity is to high.

ok..I, looked at your thead twice now.....and to tell you the truth you won't be able to tell with out getting your velocity down a bit.......Like Dman said....and your first post is very confusing.....but anyway....if you had a bad ball to barrel match...that can be a problem also....a paint brand that fits good new..doesn't mean it will fit good a month from now (could have been stored incorrect with to much moisture or heat..for to cold or frooze in the truck) so it is always better to do a test before you start to play to be sure you have a good match that day...
with all that in mind ..you should be able to get everything working just fine.....if you can keep your regulator together long enough....;)
