OK I have my X valved tac hooked up to my adjustable air america tank. im putting 1000+ PSI into the valve and getting no more reactivity then a normal screw in tank(ZERO reactivity).

I have no ULT, all stock parts including the on/off. im not going for ult runaway but the mega fast bounce that everyone raves about.

Anyone know whats up?

Brand new X-valve?

Its gunna take a few weekends of heavy play to fully break in

might be the incorrect length on/off pin. If it's the wrong length it will decrease the reactivity from what I understand. Also is your x-valve velocity turned up enough (FPS)? Chrono it. Fire, hold trigger... realease and fire as quickly as possible to get the most accurate reading. That's the most accurate way to chrono high right of fire.

Oh whoops

Ya didnt see that you were running a stock RT on/off.

As long as the trigger is being bounced back foreward thats all you can hope for with a stock RT on/off.

To bounce or sweetspot you really need the ULT.

For reactive bounce you need the retro on-off that you have. ULTs dont allow as much reactiveness. They were designed to get rid of it.

You can put a couple of level 10 shims in between the two halves of the retro on-off. That will increase the reactiveness a bit by simulating a shorter on-off pin.

Or you could just replace the on/off pin with a shorter one.

A shorter pin is just one fixed length. The shims allow you to tune it to various lengths without buying a pin.
