Please I need help,

i gought a tippmann a5 and it works great with or without flatline.The only problem i got is the velocity of the ball.I cant get more than 260fps out of it.What can i do now???I tried tre velocity screw but this brought me to the max speed of 260...

Please give me some hint...i use 3000psi HPA...

 

thank you,

tommy

how cold is it? even with HPA, in extreme cold (under 10*) it can be effected. an RVA (rear velocity adjuster) will increase spring pressure giving you normal velocity. so you should get one if it persists, or a spring kit.

RVA and Maddman Spring kit is what I would do, but anyway 260 fps isnt that bad...

Is it a low pressure tank and did you try taking apart the valve and try cleaning in because the tippmann are sent new with about of oil on the inside.
