Ive got a ult'd rt that will skip a shot every 40 shots or so.

The sear will hold back in place and wont fully reset or extend. Im pretty sure ive got too many Shims in my ult but i cant test it until I refill my tank which wont be until tuesday at the earliest.

Bolt stick.

Are you running a LVL 10?

ya, lvl 10.

This is the first time ive used one of my mags in a game so im unsure of these type or problems and how i go about fixing them. Smaller carrier or drop a shim right?

Sounds like too-tight a carrier, not enough oil, or a worn out bolt spring.

Follow the LVL 10 quick start guides available from the Resources tab up top, or follow this:

Follow these steps in order.
1. Break in carrier o-ring with 1000 shots.
2. Move broken-in white o-ring to largest carrier that does not leak.
3. If bolt sticks on squeegy test, add shims until it resets reliably.
4. Chrono marker to field speed. (this is important, don't just do it by sound)
5. If gun breaks paint (test with no loader and make an electrical tape string for paintball to hang only halfway in breach) use a longer mainspring (on the contrary, if bolt continuously "LVL 10's" or "chuffs" use a shorter mainspring).
6. Profit.

Best of luck.
