the effeciency i got on my impulse was horrible, i probably only shot about 500 times with it, and my 68/3000 nitro tank, ran out! and when i was firing with my gun, i looked at the gauge and it was moving a lot, is this normal? please help
thanks

have you adjusted your dwell and pressure and all that? you should be getting a little more than 500, im not 100% sure ive never shot a 68/3000 but im gonna guess 700-800 shots is normal?

i did adjust the dwell and all that, does it matter if i dry fire some of the gas? could my effeciency have to do with my LPR?

depends on how much you dry fire. if its only a little bit then it shouldnt take that much gas.
your lpr probably has something to do with it, but im not sure. somebody with lpr experience needs to answer this.

Do you have your LPR set to bounce off of the balls? If you do then that will make your efficiency drop like a mother.

yep, try turning down your lpr till you get drop off, then turn it back up till you dont get drop off, then turn it a little bit more.
i heard that somewhere, i dont know if it helps efficiency, but it will help something!
o and mess around with your dwell and all that and see if you can make something happen, just dont blame me if you screw something up.

The Legend way...
Turn your dwell to 5 oclock (shortest setting).
Adjust your max flow to 210ish.
Turn lpr up until you shoot 285.
Effeciency will go :tup: :tup:.
