Hello, I just bought a new x7 designated marksman package...I just fired it today at a target roughly 30 feet away and every 2/5 balls hit the target...This was on single shot, the website said effective range 150 feet. I was aiming fine because it would sometimes fire right and hit dead on...but sometimes the balls would flank right or left...sometimes they would come out broken. I use co2 and bought some Inferno balls from Dicks Sporting Goods. Any help? ------------- "War does not determine who is right-only who is left."

your velocity might be too high

Check your velocity, make sure your barrel is clean and consider a barrel upgrade. Stock ones are pretty poor at best and usually most people replace them as a first upgrade. With that said, they should have been at least fairly accurate at 30 feet. ------------- "When I grow up I want to marry a rich man and live in a condor next to the beach" -- My 7yr old daughter. |

it is most likely the velocity (as said above) in my experience tippmanns usually come at an extremely high velocity. you will want to chrono it. if you dont have one a local field should and you can usually chrono there for ree. you want it to be at about 280 fps. Also the barrel probably isnt the best. A lapco or a J&J are awesome barrels at decent prices. ------------- Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your... http://www.deltasquad.info/">
