Hi guys,

Second day out with my v2 creed today and had a ball break in the barrel in every game. Chamber was clean so it not being chopped. Using sterling paint and a .693 barrel. No one else had issue with the paint. Recently been fiddleing with both the hpr and lpr, chronoed it and it was a little high, backed the lpr back out a little to practically flush, only saw i minor improvement.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Check your loader settings.
Make sure the eyes on your marker are working.
Put a fresh decent battery into your marker.

Might not be the marker that is the problem. The force setting on loaders is a more common issue nowadays

as Mclovin wrote, check the detents, some creed suffer with sticky or shallow milled detents.

Take of the barrel and remove the bolt, look through to see if both detents are present, pertruding and sprung.

Wow, you guys know your stuff. Both detents are present but one has the spring missing. Could this be causing the broken paint?

Thanks lads

Yep

For sure as the dents aren't spring back into place. Do you have any springs. Normally in a spares bag if you get one??
