Over Boring

[Bolter]

As a team we always barrel match paint and sometimes during the day if we have a big change in temp during the day. (paint can change size during the day increasing muzzle velocitys!)

I personally use a tight bore on my Geo (so you can just about blow it out with your mouth) and I have found it improves its accuracy, efficiency and shot to shot consistancy. I also have no probs with breaks.

However this is as long as your using good quality paint. If your using cheaper training paint (which by default is normally more inconsistant) I would use a larger bore and put up with a slight lack of Accuracy and efficiency in order to combat the higher chances of barrel breaks.

Not necessarily training paint mate. Ive shot thousands of boxes probably, of all different kinds, brands, qualities etc, and you get one slightly mishapen ball in a bag in your box of round paint, and thats the ball that loses your tournie.

Has anybody in the entire history of paintball ever used a .679 insert freak insert,i have never even got close to using one,it just sits there in my case looking sad and unwanted

Draxus Frostbite from LIPS during February

Couldn't use my 'cockers as it was smaller than my 0.681 Stiffi. (100% rollouts)

Had to buy this to shoot it.

Yep agreed every now and then but for the other 1999 balls in the box I want them to be the most consistant little friends I have.

We have used two diff brands of paint over the last couple of years and on the whole our system is working very well with this quality of paint. And although many will think this is a PE marketing tool to be 100% honest its very rare anyone one in either of our 2 squads breaks a ball. With both teams combined this is about 22 cases a tourney!

Well set up marker+good barrel match+good quallity paint deffinatly helps with podium finishes im sure you will agree.
