    Bad Feeding and Chopping minimag problem! please help!

    hi. i was out shooting a little paint in my backyard, and this was my second time shooting around with my minimag. this time, the powerfeed seems to be rstricting ball flow and no matter what i do the balls just won't go into the chamber well. i've tried every possible position with the powerfeed plug but to no avail. i have even tried sanding down the powerfeed plug but again it won't work. the barrel is in properly and i have disassembled the marker twice now looking for anything out of the ordinary. but everytime i go back out to shoot it'll shoot one or two balls and then chop in half a mis-fed ball. if anyone can suggest something for me to try please help me out! thanks alot!

    PS- my setup is a HL PF Minimag, 12volt revy, 68 3k HPA, a drop and gas thru grip if that would make any difference

        the nubbin is cool, i checked that right away. this minimag is fairly new, so i assumed it had the parabolic plug, but surprisingly it didn't. so i just finsihed sanding down the plug making it more curvy, so i am gonna go out and try it again. thanks for the suggestions guys

          well, thats it! it was the plug that was the problem. i'm pretty sure it was the old kind so after sanding it down to a parabolic style it fed great! thanks alot for your help guys, sorry for the newbish question :o....this is my first mag tho

                  Chopping

                  I was a beta tester for the Level 10 upgrade, and all I can say it was the best $65 dollars ever spent on my Minimag. It will solve all of your problems; since installing it, I have not had to use my squeegee during a game.
