on the tippmann page, it says X-Chambers improve accuracy. Is that
actually true? cause i know they help consistency and reduce/eliminate
freezing, but do they actually improve accuracy? ------------- CPro (w/ polished internals) 14" Bigshot BT SBS Various Rails NcSTAR D4B Macro AA 68/45

Yes and no. Does it improve accuracy in the sense like a new barrel or something would?, no. Now it does improve your accuracy, due to the improved consistency of your marker. See, the more consistent your gun is, the more consistent your shot to shot accuracy is going to be. That's how I look at it. :> ------------- http://www.macdev.net - MacDev Militia http://www.alienpb.com - Alien - Because winning is more fun. |

| An expansion chamber will help to provide more consistant propellant to the valve, meaning that your paintball gun will shoot a more consistant pattern of shots, and therefore your gun will hit the same target more consistantly (excluding factors like wind, etc). |

| I'm not too familiar with expansion chambers, but if they work like Palmer's stabilizers and regulates the amount of air, then yes it should improve your accuracy IMO. |

I just picked one up for my CR-15,and can't way to see how it works. Sure is a pain in the neck to get on though! |
