Sounds great, except the stock bolt is better than any aftermarket.

Save some money, stick with your original bolt.

Yeah, stock internals on tippmanns are awesome. If I were you, I'd ditch the Progressive, and get a Freak kit. Other than that, I don't think you really need anything. On my 98 Custom, I put Sticky Grips, a Freak, a double trigger, and a Revvy hopper. I changed the return spring in the trigger with a pen spring, and now I can ALMOST walk the trigger. I still got to work with it though.

Forget the progressive and the freak. Don't waste your money. Go with a J&J Ceramic. $30-45, shoot itself clean, very light, quiet, and good quality. With good paint to bore match it's accurate as anything else. Just make sure you're shooting medium bore paint and you're set.

Other than that, upgrades are for personal preference. Lose the bolt however, and the double trigger too. Unless you really like the feel of double triggers, they really aren't neccesary for woodsball.

I've heard a lot of people say that once the Freak chops, you have to squeegee it, but on my Freak Jr. (same barrel, different front) I can shoot through it in about 3-8 shots and it's back to normal.
