    Level 10 bolt with CO2?

    I played with my Minimag with minimag valve and level 7 bolt yesterday. It was great untill it choped. And boy did it chop. Sometimes the third ball somtimes the hundreth. But it choped consistantly.

    It was not the fault of the loader or the barrel or the paint. It was the bolt. It's just too hard on paint. So anyone know if I can use the LX with CO2? It shoots +/- 3 over the chrono so Liquid CO2 isn't a problem thanks to the Palmers and the Anti-siphon.

    My setup:

    Minimag with minimag A.I.R. valve
    Level 7 bolt
    Anti-siphoned 20oz CO2
    Palmers Stabalizer
    12" Lapco Bigshot
    Eggy II loader

    Thanks

      Do you have the vertical stabilizer is the bottom line mounted? How do you like it? I will have to use one and was wondering about the performance. Thanks

        I love the look and the feel of it.

        Performance: I have the Stabalizer set around 650. I don't shoot verry fast by todays standards. I think I max out at 8 BPS. And I don't have any problems with shootdown. As I said before it chronos at +/- 3 FPS. It was at +/- 10 FPS before the Palmers.

        Looks: Juge for yourself, (you can see it on my brigade page) and yes I have the bottom line setup. It came with a duckbill ASA and I diddn't like it. I have a before pic on my brigade page too just click on the pic in the top left.

          Co2

          Between the anti-syphon and the Palmers, CO2 shouldn't be an issue...even with the Level 10. I'd find a way of getting that 650psi turned up to closer to 800psi though. It is my understanding that the Mag valves work best in the 800-850psi range.
