Accuracy

[Chandler]

Man its sucking. What could it be. Im think pressure and dwell if that effects accuracy cause its not set all that great but i need to do it at the field with a chrono.

I lubed the hammer and bolt and it is still bad. Should i put dow 33 on the hammer rod. The thing that comes in and out of the hammer body that is silver.

Oh and the paint to barrel match was perfect.

What kind of paint? What kind of barrel?

How was your consistancy? What was the weather like?

Theres tons of things that affect accuracy, just how bad was it?

[monkeybacon00]

um, I dont know about the hammer rod but , correct if im wrong, you arent supposed to lube the hammer. I suggest you clean it off thoroughly

when i have to use my 20oz without an anti-syphon tube, and i rapid fire, it makes my pressure go way up. I notice that my paint is curving pretty bad. Then when i hear my reg release some air, i look at it and it's around 220psi. I would say your dwell is set too high, next time you goto a feild adjust it over the crono, or you could just do it in your back yard, but it wouldn't be as accurate.

OK, a few things. I don't know how may people I see do this- but remember your squgee is just to swab out the barrel on the field-- Its not to "clean" your barrel

Barrel cleaning is best done with soap and water. I use warm watter and dish soap in the sink. push wadded up paper towels thru the balle to get the bore realy clean and dry. NEVER use any sort of oil on the inside of the barrel!

After you greese up your gun, hold a rag over the front of the gun (no barrel) and fire it a number of times. This is to get the excess greese out of the gun without getting it in the barrel.

There should be ZERO/none/nada lube on the hammer or the front of the bolt. Rember NO LUBE forward of the last O-ring!!!

Of course in the end, the best thing you can do to get accuracy is use good paint. Even if you don't like it, get some FRESH marblizer to test your accuracy. This should take the variable of the paint out of the picture.
