🙁 I Need Help

hey its greenthumb, and i have a B2k3 thats is horrible on air Efficency, i get about 800 balls on a 91ci 4500 nitro duck!!, and thats shooting 270 fps. I have a .695 insert for my freak, stock LPR, stock bolt, and a CP reg. i was wondering if there are any LPRs i could get for better efficency, or if mabey i should buy more inserts to match ball to bore, any help wpuld be greatly appreciated.

Having owned an ICD BKO, a Mac Dev Sonic Bushmaster, and currently an 8th gen x-milled B2K, I found the number one upgrade to increase efficiency is a new valve. I would recommend the Vapor Valve or a Mac Dev Red Valve. Your efficiency will go up anywhere from 50-75%.

Also, make sure you have your LPR set as low as it will go and still keep the marker firing consistently. (Replacing this with a Sonic, hoseless Microrock, or other aftermarket LPR will help a lot too...)

Your HPR should be set somewhere between 200-220.

Lastly, get some more inserts to match your paint to your barrel. A bad match will kill efficiency on a low pressure marker. .695 is huge! Get at least a .689 or .691.

Here are some Bushmaster upgrade links for you:

www.paintballtrader.com
www.zenitram-mfg.com
www.macdev.net
