It does waste air, but seeing as I can, in theory, get nrealy a case through my Alias before airing up again, who cares? Personally shoot a .693 all day long and get no barrel breaks, and am able to shoot through if I chop. It isn't very air efficient to have a barrel break followed by a complete block of the barrel....

Overboring is alright with bad/cheap paintballs, when it s the only way to don't chop.

Else, using a good back with round paintballs make a massive difference.

I own 3 bores of barrel at the moment: .690, .693, .695

I currently use the 693 for everything, I dont look at the size of paint.

I only overbore, I shoot at matrix and I still get more than enough shots per fill, does it affect accuracy? Yeah, I guess but not much.

will over boring make it more accurate? I have a few markers, if i overbore with the NT how many shots do you think i would get from a 3k fill?
