    breaks, chops, and everything else

    hey i was wondering. how often do you guys and girls have a ball break down the barrel or get one chopped in your gun etc.? like how many times per 1000 shots or something like that. ive put about 1000-1500 shots through my current automag and ive had one break down the barrel and im not sure why because my revy was messing up so that may have had something to do with it.

      I see 1-2 barrel breaks per case in good weather. 1 chop per case or so. In cold weather, can you say 'Blend'.

      Level 10 is going in my Classic Mag Shortly.

        iv put easily more than 4 cases down my barrel with like 15 breaks... ( i mean a ball broke, not chopped, and each time a ball breaks i stop counting all the breaks until i squegee)

          Usually 1 per case. Had one at a tourne Sun...took me like a minute to clean quickly one the feild...had trouble removing my elbow and hopper, then I couldn't get my battle swab outta my pocker it was stuck in some loose threading, finally got the shell outta my PF and got back in the game.

              I get at least one every 200 hundred balls. Sometimes more (a lot more). Lvl 10 on the way though.

                when I first GOT my rt pro, I would CHOP very bad. after about 2 days of playin. When I got used toit, I dont think i chopped a ball in about 4000rounds and I dont think I had a barrel brake. it only took me a little bit to get used to how it shoots.

                  Only broke in my barrel when i fired w/the condom on. Oops. But, cleaning a barrel is far easier with the twistlock than unscrewing it...

                      hehehe .... chopping

                      ugh...you all are SO lucky. "im on my elevendy billionth case with only 4 chops!" poor me. I just bought an RT and whew....i stink! lol i put about 2 cases through it and ive choped...oh id say about 100 balls. and thats a conservative guess. but i think im getting better. i went out in my back yard last night and practiced the trigger...only 1 chop in 200 rounds. So for me, level 10 is a necessity.

                            I have a friend like you... every time he picked up my RT he would chop within ten balls...

                            He's going to be using my RT LX this weekend as the ultimate test!

                            I'm also considering putting my 'rip' frame onto it just for kicks... hehehe

                              I don't even remember the last time I chopped was, 10,000+ (not counting me chopping a ball by turning off the powerfeed plug )
