I have a Tippmann model 98 custom and when fireing it the balls go some distance and then turn a bit what can I do to fix this will a expansion chamber fix it?
Need some help

No an expansion chambe will not fix it. The problem is eather a bad barrel, bad paint, or a combination of both.
If they are out of round or dimpled it can make your shots hook.
What type of barrel and what kind of paint are you using

oh the barrel is
a 32 degrees whisper aluminum barrel with holes it came free when I got my gun
and the paint is brass eagle mixed with32 degree balls

Was the barrel used or new. Look down the inside and see if there are any large scratches or rough spots. And you can try rolling the barrle on a flat table to see if its curved at all.
For accuracy's sake (as well as consistancy) it is usually a bad idea to mix different types, batches, bags, ect of paint. Check them over to see if they are in good shape. are they round, do they have dimples, has the paint settled (you can sometimes see a line that shouldent be there).
If it all looks gun try putting the a ball in the barrel. if the paint drops through the balls are to small. if you turn blue when you try and blow the ball out the balls are to big. If the ball fly's across the room you have a good fit and a mess on the wall.

I did the stuff with the barrel on the table and
and it is good and it is a new barrel so then it must be the paint I was just messing around in back of my house and noticed the curve when I play I use team colors paint so thanks
Oh and what does an expansion chamber do then? Is it good to have on the m98?

an exp chamber will be inline between your CO" supply and your gun. It will take in liquid and hopfully let it expand into gas, also it will help stop and liquid getting sucked into the gun.
this helps in two ways. stops velocity spikes where the is a lot of rapidly expanding liquid into gas.
and secondly, CO2 is very cold and liquid CO2 will mess up your guns internals if its exposed for long periods of time.
