New bolts in Tippmanns will only cause problems.

Assuming that you have a Tippmann you should keep the stock bolt.

Historically, The stock Tippmann bolt has been superior to anything the aftermarket could come up with...  any thing else just chops balls.  I had an aluminium venturi bolt in my .68 carbine... and when it wasnt chopping balls it was otherwise performing poorly. 

However, over at A5OG, I have heard the superfly bolt spoken of very highly, in conjunction with a polished aftermarket aluminium powertube...  just a tad of white lithium grease. 


The bolt isnt going to affect the ball in flight.  The only real change you'll see is in the cycling rate.  Any increase in accuracy is probably just placebo.
