Chopping Mags

[Shifty Capone]

What can cause a mag to chop, my friend believes all mags chop, and when he shot an emag he said it chopped 1 outta 100 balls......why do mags chop so much?

[Butterfingers]

faster guns chop mere...

Its the result of balls not feeding fast enough for the ROF.

the guy had his 12v revvy on there

My brother consistanly out-shoots a 12v on his classic mag.... It is even easier to do on an emag.

well my friend thinks that mags just chop in general.........and im really confused right now because i can get a pf mag wit jj ceramic, kapp dropzone,and a 12v revvy for 260 or a 2k1 vert feed cocker with 14 boomstick, kapp dropz2 and a revvy for 300............i was leaning twoards the mag but i really like cockers too!

I have the MiniMag w/Hyper Frame, 12v revy, Warp feeder... Ever sense I set it up like that I havn't broke a ball yet! 10 balls a second steady till the hoper is empty...

also your boy maybe short stroking the trigger, which means he isnt pullin the trigger back all the way to complete the bolt cycling, which will pinch every time. one way to check this is when you get a break, check to see if paint is on bolt face and in powerfeed, this is caused by short strokin the trigger, if its only breakin in barrel, then thats a paint/bore problem, cure: change barrel or paint for a better paint/barrel match. Also its due to new style paint being more brittle/ softer shelled, which i recommend using winter fills this time of year anyway.
