Hey i read somewhere that the rt pro's retro valve has a thing where the volocity increases as u shoot faster. I don't like to waste paint and plan on hitting my target with as less shots as posible, so if this is true please tell me. Thanks.;)

Yes, when you shoot at high rates of fire the air is coming into the valve so fast that it heats up, and increases pressure. The increased pressure in turn increases velocity. It doesn't "waste paint" to have a higher velocity, so I'm not sure what that comment is supposed to mean.

I never found that the valve heating caused me any problems in snap shooting.
