So I ordered a Viking...

[paint magnet]

I've got an older Viking (#582, I think someone on AO actually has #583), it's blind with the Nelson 30.3 bps board and it rips. I bought it used though, so I can't speak for the break in period (all I know is turn the bolt around and shoot it a lot).

I know you'll love it. But please, at least go play with it before you start changing things

Ok, i'm getting both switches, so i'll have to try both, did you flip your Bedlam?

I have actually not even tried flipping my Bedlam switch. I have it the normal way, it is perfect for me.

Ok, did you keep the spring the normal length?

Ok, did you keep the spring the normal length?

Yeah.

Alright, do you have any bounce problems with that setup? What's your debounce at?

[ilikePB]

I can set it at db2 and it doesn't have a lot of bounce, at db3 I have never gotten pulled for bounce. Also, my pull is very short, the activation is at the beginning with a little slack after.

edit: At db1 I get 2 or 3 shots per trigger pull.

Try it with the spring and light switch, and with no spring and the stock switch. The reason you dont have to flip the light switch is that, well, its light. The easiest way to prevent bounce is to ensure you have a lil slack in the trigger, and the activation is towards the back half of the pull.
