I have a 98 custom with response trigger and my balls are being constally broke, theres alot of curve and the air is running out quick. The balls were brand new too. What do you think is wrong?

If it helps I have a 14 inch barrel and thats about it. I took my gun apart and i saw some wear in my bolt.

What kind of hopper do you have?

What kind of tank do you have?

whats your velocity set at?




A gun is not a weapon... It's a tool. Like a butcher knife, or a harpoon, or...uh, a...an alligator.

Sounds to me like your velocity is too high.  Crank it down with a Chrono so you know what your shooting.  Also check for a spur in your barrel, it could be something as simple as a piece of shell caught in a barrel port, but that would turn your balls into soup.

It is your hopper. A stock hopper will chop every time with the r/t. You probably lose accuracy once you chop the first ball and that is the reason for the curving. If the paint still isn't accurate after getting the e-hopper, try adjusting your velocity.
