To set the scene...

I finally received my X7 today from canada. It has the response trigger fitted.

It was surface transfered, I.E. by ship. And I love the look of it of course. But....

I test fired it earlier with standard .68 balls, and a 88gm co2 bottle.

Problem I had was,

It seemed to fire the amount of ball's it wanted each time I squeezed the trigger.
The feed seemed to work ok, but as I said amount of balls was random. There were no broken balls in feed.
Sometimes would be just 1 shot, others could be 2 round burst or full auto.
Temp was approx 65 farrenheit, with slow rain.

There was no change in my pull on the trigger each time.

The 88 froze more than I have ever seen after finishing. I.E. Terminator 2 soaked in liquid nitrogen

I have no large tank full at the moment to test that way so only got these details.

I'm thinking poss air line problem, but want to hear your thoughts before I start chucking money at ghosts.

Cheers for reading

After just reading that through again, I have 2 ideas of my own.

1. It's cause I was using 88g co2, so HPA should have different results. I.E. freezing pressure temp etc

2. I need to get the "sweet spot" to get it to perform, by turning the flow control whilst firing
