I am having a problem with the velocity on my A-5. I can get only 245fps with the flatline and the velocity screw all the way out. With stock barrel, I am lucky to get 285fps. I see posts where you guys are getting 280fps with the flatline ! That would be awesome ! Any suggestions as to what this could be ? |

Possible bind in the rear bolt's path from the overspray on the receivers. Also, the valve spring may be damaged/ warped. Make sure the CVX has been oiled (drop oil directly into it). ------------- A-5 E-grip Chipley Custom Carbon Graphite 16" Evil Adapter(Spyder) 32 Deg New '03 XChamber Remote Line Gun Sling Sniper f/x Stock LPK 68/4500 HPA R-5 CP Reg JCS Duel Trigger |

If its cold out your velocity will not be at its peak because of the co2 and its slow reaction to coldth. -------------

How do I solve bind in rear bolt path ? What is CVX ? I am using HPA so it is not a co2 issue.

polish your internals. to solve any binding issues. Oil everything. CVX is the type of valve Tippmann uses. ------------- http://www.anomationanodizing.com - My Site
