Accuracy improvement

[RRdmx77]

To improve my accuracy i was going to get a new bolt for my 98 custom. I was thinking either a Proteam Hyperstar or a Taso Starfire. They both look good, which one should i get?

Don't waste your money on one of those aftermarket bolts. They don't work, and really do nothing beneficial towards accuracy. I've heard they end up breaking more paint than the stock bolt, and can damage your barrel, etc.

They won't improve range, accuracy, or anything like that, and can actually decrease efficiency because venturis dont flow well.

Just trying to help you not to make a purchase you'll regret.

hey,
screw getting a new bolt, go for a barrel!! in particular, what i have! it is below in my signature! 14" smartparts Progressive, $55.

i already got a barrel

[specter542]

sorry!:eek:

[RRdmx77]

it ok...

i just thought a bolt would help because for most guns a new bolt does limit ball breakage and increase accuracy.

ps: What should i then get instead of a new bolt?

How about a regulator or double trigger? I don't see those in your "sig".

Got a new barrel? Ok, get good paint that fits it best.

Also, a nice regulator. They are needed for more consistent shots.

if anybody is interested in getting a new barrel...e-mail me...i found a website where you can get a smart parts all american..brand new..for $50...(they only have a few left...so i am not gonna post the website just anywhere...i wanna keep it to myself) but..i want someone to buy it first...and tell me if it is the barrel...and not just somthing that looks like it. i don't have any money..i don't have a job...and just want to be careful before i buy..lol...:eyes:

yeah those bolts are just a gimmick. they do jack squat for accuracy. if you wanna spend your money, get a rocket-cock or Spee-T cocking system... that'll help quiet the gun a little bit.. but the biggest thing is, it'll keep dirt and debris out of your striker area.
once you have a good barrel, and your pressure is somewhat regulated, just stick to buying good paint for that barrel, and practice your trajectories. not much beyond that is gonna improve your accuracy.
