The Flatline has always worked best with an underbore. The ball "grabs" the top of the barrel as it travels down, and that's what gives it its backspin. Anything bore matched or overbored will probably lead to barrel breaks, and cleaning a Flatline is a royal pain...
If you're getting actual rollouts, you may have a problem with your detent. |

when I use the flatline barrel nothing but ball breaks I sent my gun back to Tippmann so they can look at it also my flatline barrel my paintballs are at room temperature I bring my gun outside as soon as I start shoot my gun I would get ball breaks I don't understand why I'm outside less than five minutes so by paintball shouldn't be that cold I know that phenom is hard on paint I'm just wondering if there's someone else I should look at the paintballs are good shape any help would be appreciated |

It doesn't take more than a few seconds for the gelatin encapsulation of paintballs to turn excessively brittle in sub 50*F temperatures. Keeping them at room temperature and then taking them outside won't avoid that.
Try Polar Ice or another "winter" paint this time of year. |
