You don't sound resposible enough to actually be able to bring the velocity up above 250......so you won't get help from me............And the sad thing about that is that you're 21...........

Comments like that will drive people away from our forums.

I shoot at 250 all the time. It's not that bad.

Moderator!  Please delete this obnoxious thread!  Nothing personal to the originator, but we don't need threads that are this negative.  I would be interrested in an answer to the guys question since I have an A-5 and I'm still learning about it.  So far it has served me well after limited use... but when/if the problem arises, I'd like to know the fix... if this thread gets yanked, someone PM me please.

Oh, cry me a river. This is NOT a problem thread when you consider the flame fiesta threads we've had.

I bet I can get the answer off the net in 15 min :) and this time I'm going for well over 300 (just for you, friend)

And the sad thing about that is that you're 21.........

I'll be 22 March 1st!

Hey! I was gonna let you steer!

Condor, man, you are a great psychologist! Keep it up!

On most Tippmann valves, once the velocity screw is turned beyond four turns the screw no longer protrudes into the valve.  It actually starts to back out of the valve and the resulting extra space (where the threads are) allows the gasses to expand in ways other than just down the barrel which decreases velocity.  There is also a point ( I think it is six turns out, because I tested it once, but I don't remember for sure) where gas starts to leak out around the screw, decreasing velocity even further.

Hmmmmmmmm, I should save and print that pic and use it for target practice....look 250 is jus fine when using the Flatline, mine is set at 270 and I have a 98c w/Flatline....any higher I'll be breaking balls like it was a trend.

Do not steal....the government hates competition!
