Hi,

I have a afiarly new A5 with Tippman x-chamber and a flatline barrel.  Here's my problem

1)On the flatline barrel the screw and the sight will not line up perfectl;y, they are a few millimetres off (not sure if this is within tolerances)

2) the majority of the paintballs shoot off to the left of the marker, rarely to the right.  7/10 are to the left of the target (some spin very far left) ... I don't know why this is happening ... the barrel is lined up with the sight as best as I can, it won't turn those extra few milimeters to line up perfectly.  If it spread around the target evenly I wouldn't be to concerned but the grouping left indicates that perhaps something is wrong.

Any ideas

take the flatline off the A-5 and take the shroud off. look on the bottom of the barrel (i think its the bottom). theres a white, strait, center mark going down the barrel. this is the real center mark. this is supposed to be lined up so that you can use the shroud screw to align it properly.

good thing that this is adjustable. there a hole with a allen small allen screw on the barrel adapter, unscrew this and adjust it to the the barrel is strait. then tighten is back down.

i don't know how to tell if its strait, just keep trying, it will work.

good luck
