Phenom Breaking/Chopping Youtube

   Hey guys. I have sent my Phenom back to Tippmann 3 times now. They are amazingly fast and seem to be all about helping their customers, but have not been able to fix my ball breaking problems. The 3rd time, I insisted that they replace the gun with another. (I knew SOMETHING was wrong with my gun because my buddy has an identical setup and we shot the same paint side by side, mine broke 1 out of 20 balls and his broke none) I just shot it tonight. MUCH better. I shot almost a whole bag of 500 Spectrum paintballs and broke 10. Not bad, but still enough to leave you cleaning your barrel while the guy with the 98 custom  flatline snipes you off. 
I read an older topic in this forum about this problem and taking the direction found there, I sanded the bolt, breach and any other surfaces that the ball will come in contact with removing any possibillity of sharp noogins causing ball breaks. It's alot better, but still not right. 

I have now documented my griefs for you pros to check out in detail. Can you check it out and give me any advice? I will be sure to post a resolution as soon as one is reached because I know I can't be the only one out there with these types of problems.
