Speed on my RT changes with every shoot from about 270 to 310 fps even when regulator nut is set to minimum. So i have problems with choping in powerfeed :(

Any suggestions?

Try replacing your reg seat.

fire once, hold the trigger back.

for the following shots release and pull the trigger as fast as you can. This simulates rapid fire and will give you an accurate chrono on the rt.

i chrono after 3-5 shots. speed is is minor problem, i think it is because of peaks of unstable air pressure pushing paintballs

sorry for bad english

Well, with the RT the proper chrono procedure is important because it simulates rapid fire. During rapid fire the velocity will increase due to rapid air movement causing expansion. Follow the instructions carefully (they're on www.airgun.com, in the video and also instruction manual) and if that doesn't seem to help try the regulator seat.

RT's are sensitive to proper paint to barrel matches. Make sure your barrel matches your paint.
