| say that i had opened my gun to install a new trigger and didn't touch anything else but the trigger area. would this effect the velocity when i put my gun back together or will the velocity be the same? |

It shouldn't do anything. If you are still a little cuirous, do it and then chrono it. Otherwise, it shouldn't do anything to your velocity. Edit-If you won't have a chrono, just set it low. We don't want anyone getting hurt. |

| ok so you got it chronoed, what are you shooting now? if youre between 250 & 270 you should be good. |

| 240-248 cuz my field keeps it at 250 fps so can't go over that but i haven't opened my gun since i last chronoed so i think i am going to and then go paintballing this weekend (if i can, doubt it) and see what it is at. |

Your velocity will be differant everytime the temp is differant. If your balls are swerving your velocity is too high, if they are dropping, too low. Get it right in between there. -------------

^this is partially(sp) true but it could also be that you just have real shotty paint and you just need better paint.^ |

Yuk! 250 is way too low especially if you use a flatline. Recommended is 270fps with the flatty. -------------

just shoot your gun until you feel the its at the right speed... if youve got used to keeping your gun around 240-248. ------------- My Setup 98 Pro-with ape board 14" Tear Drop Dye stickys 32 Degrees Rear Velocity Adjuster egg with y-board 12vt Revvy with X-Board Sanded Trigger homemade magnetic trigger |

If you're using CO2, it'll always change. But, as long as you didn't take out or adjust the velocity screw to install the trigger it's set the same as before. If you did screw with it, just where on your gun were you trying to install this trigger?? ------------- 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 |

You're suppsoed to get it chrono'd before every time you play. Even something as simple as changing c02 tanks will change velocity. If you do not have a chrono, go buy one. ------------- A-5 E-Grip JCS Dual Trigger DOP X-CORE 8 stage x-chamber Lapco Bigshot 14" Beadblasted Optional setup: R/T Dead on Blade trigger |

| Look from installing a trigger and not touching anything else that will not change the velocity there is no way it can it should shoot the exact same speed before you opended it. |

| No, it won't shoot the exact same as before he opened it. CO2 will change velocity from morning to afternoon just from the temperature differences. Evan HPA can change a litle from week to week. Chrono before you are going to be shooting at people. |
