Can anyone help me out and tell me what kind out bolt this is? Is it good? Should I use it or something else?? I got a RT today and it had this bolt in it and another one that looks like the stock one with it also

Found this a few weeks ago...
looks like an ANS bolt. As far as how quality it is, not sure. If weight is a concern, it saves .2oz, so no worries if you havent hit the gym lately. The idea of the Venturi design (the multiple holes on the bolt face) is to be "softer"on the paint, but I have read arguments on both sides saying it works and dosent work.I dont know anything more than that.
Hope that helps a little. -
It's an ANS Phase II Venturi bolt. I have one in my RTPro. Not so sure about air effeciency and ball impact over the level 7, but I like it because the face is curved entirely and cups the ball well as opposed to the level 7 which just has a small cup for the ball.. It is supposed to destribute the air better as well.
If anything it can't be worse than a level 7, so I'd hold onto it.Comment

Looks like an ANS venturi bolt. I would use a L10 or the stock bolt instead.Comment

I use that venturi on my pump, it is a nice bolt.Comment

Unfortunately it can... that curve allows the balls to roll back and then the ball above will drop in a little and get bounced up or chopped when you fire. There is a small round foam dot that I have seen glued to the center face of those ANS bolts to prevent this.Originally posted by WatcherComment

Hmm, I've shot the venturi on my mag for a while now and can't say I've really gotten a chop, other than when I run out of ammo and the warp stops pushing but that also happens to my level 7 RT classic and my friends E-mag.
That is something to consider though...Comment

The stock or lvlx bolts are better IMO than the ANS. I have never noticed a problem with the shape of the ANS that would cause bouce back and chops on my mag. But thinking about makes sense.Comment
