    Bolt Stick? or bad bolt spring?

    I have been using my mag with hyperframe for a long time now with no problems. Last saturday had a little bit of bolt stick and I changed the power tube spacer to a longer one. I threw it all together and now I have a lot more bolt stick. I put the other power tube spacer and same thing. I can push the bolt back with my finger and it cocks back and the sear holds the bolt. I even changed to a different bolt and same problem. Could it be a weak bolt spring? How many shots is a bolt sping good for?? I have about 20 thousand balls with this spring? Could it be the hyperframe? But I have had not other problems till now. Help!!

    the tip of the bolt shouldnt be longer than the spring, if it is thats your problem and then try your stock frame and see if that makes a difference

    Good to know that somone of Tom's status seeks "relief" from a sport he helped create. A sport now ruled by a single patent.

      The bolt spring is just a little bit longer then the bolt, but not much. I put the stock frame back on and the same thing. I can push the bolt back and I will lock back up. I have a .225 power tube spacer in right now. I used it before with no problems. I need help. is there anything else that can be wrong??

        Try a new bolt spring and see if that fixes it. If not, we can try other things.

          I put in a new bolt spring and it seems to have gone away. It did just bolt stick once, but I think I had the velocity turned down real low. I loaded up the hopper and shot about 30 balls no problm. I hope this fixed it. I almost gave up on the mag. Thanks a lot guys!
