[Little Jon]

I have a JT excellerator 5.0

It would be cheaper to change your paint.

Try air, a new bolt wont make much diffeence cos it will still be slapping the ball at 800psi.

Hi.
Dont know much about these, but, try turning down your input/operating preassure.
Is it breaking inthe gun or in the barrel?
If its in the barrell, the barrel is too tight. Get another barrel. Rekka barrels are pretty good and cheap at £45 for any length with fade anod if you like.
Hope this helps.

The first thing to do is to remove the bolt get a small fine file and just file around the bolt face, you may have a sharp face on the bolt so just file the edges and it should sort you problem. This has happend before and it usually sorts it.
