has any one bought one of theis bolts yet because im thinking of buying one but iv herd that the aftermarket bolts snap and brake :eek: . And how low can you se the dwell aswell and what the eficiancy like :rolleyes:
 
Ive got a hollowpoint. It works very well.
Upgrading your bolt doesnt really help much with efficiency, but it reduces recoil and reduces the impact the bolt has on the paint.
Its no use being really efficient if your making paint soup.



Aftermarket bolts do not snap and break. Somebody is telling you porkies there...

I recommend the L7 or the hollowpoint. The L7 is very reliable and the hollowpoint is a nicely made bit of kit.

Just dont get the firebolt, its a downgrade from the stock bolt.

actually they do break.....but only if your us!!

we got a bad batch of firebolts installed on the team sp8s - the "fins" between the head and tail had been over milled, and the sustained high ROF in Mahlwinkle for 3 days play took its toll.

needless to say we weren't amused, and its never happened again!! ours are the only cases of failing firebolts we've heard of......typical!

Been using DW hollowpoint for a few games

Great value for money upgrade, almost zero kick & dwell runs way lower
