Turn the screw ALL the way in, then shoot over a chrony a few times and work from there.

Ya isn't supposed to go in to turn it down. Anyway just cut the little spring a bit and then try. ------------- My guns name is Mr. Max in remembrance of my dog that got hit by a car: Tippmann A-5 Ricochet R-5 JCS double Trigger Tippmann E-Grip Flatline Barrel Do you have the need for speed? |

no need to cut the spring. Your just turning your velocity adjuster
screw the wrong way. Turning it in will bring it down. Turn it in
almost all the way and then back it out slowly. The velocity will go down really slow and then drop all of a sudden if you do it the other way. ------------- http://www.anomationanodizing.com - My Site

Then I would look at a spring modification, though I would suggest the lighter one of the Madman Spring Kit if available or cut off a loop at a time of the one he has. But just incase, try these first:
------------- A-5: 12" Ceramic, Egrip/WAS/Duel, HPA, MP5 sliding stock SMG-68: 12" Ceramic 68-Specials(8): 12"&14" Ceramic, 12V Revy *** 1 Tip-n-Strip, 1 Blue, 1 FA w/Qloader SL-68: 14" Ceramic SMG-60 Ext. Line |

Install the light Maddmann spring or cut a half loop at a time off the stock spring. I had the same problem when I went to a large diameter paint ball. The tight paint was above 315 fps with the adjustment screw turned all the way in. I switched springs and the problem went away. OR, install a rear velocity adjustment. |
