it would be alright to put a lvl7 on an xmag since they have eyes, right? to save a bit of efficiancy?

thx

It is a single reflective eye rather than a pair of brek beam eyes. Mine seems to work well enough and I have never had a problem chopping, I also keep my LX in it. WHY would you even want to drop from LX to L7??? Snap out of it man!

He already stated that it would be for the efficiency. Although, the amount of efficiency you save is most likely negligible.

Dont forget that the Level 7 bolt travels much faster through it's first 1/2 of the stroke than the Level 10 does. What does that mean? It means that you are more likely to crack the ball waiting above the one being fired. Once you crack it, when it shoots it looks like you chopped it. You COULD round the tip of your level 7 bolt to help with that problem, use a foamie bolt, AND use harder shelled paint. Of course the recoil is less with Level 10 so....you're technically more accurate. Decisions decisions.

I tried it. I put a lvl 7 in one of my Xmags and found that I actually went deaper into the tank with the lvl 10 and the gold spring (stock spring).

So I suggest that you dont bother with the lvl 7.

Works very well and has an adjustment screw on the frame so that you can adjust its sensativity(sp).

The eye is hit or miss for most people. it seems that there are people who have trouble adjusting it properly. Mine works flawlessly.

The efficency gain by converting back to lvl 7 in negligable(sp?).

Go with what works best. Once you get past the learning curve of the lvl 10 you will be insanely happy with the xmag.
