Ello people!

I recently brought my awesome DYE NT from lips. the Hyper 3 is set at 130 as suggested in the instructions. and everything is factory setting. when coming to chrono this marker. It is only firing at 264. 266, is this normal???? Can i not get it close to 290+? i have the spacer mod, but have left out the 4 pcs spacers.

thanks for the help

Hi

The NT will chrono around 285-290 when the Hyper3 is set to 130 psi, and there are no spacer inserts fitted. (provided the paint / barrel match is good)

Adding the rubber shroud, any of the rings, or swapping the red bolt insert in - without adjusting the Hyper reg pressure - will decrease the velocity.
