When my Onyx was skipping, it was the hopper.. I was out shooting the Velocity on all modes.. So maybe a ball is just not feeding..

The feedneck was so tight on my halo. Could be cause they are so old but I have no idea. Gonna get new shells I guess. Otherwise shot flawlessly. Cut the spring a bit to = pure sex.

I set my trigger screw loose an then put a drop of red loctite on the other side.... where the screw comes out..

lil pimp · 10-09-2006, 11:36 AM

ok a few things.
on sunday the reg was creeping very badly. i chronoed it at 290 then 3 hours later it was shooting 340... if anyone knows what the problem is with that it would be great.
it also chopped ALOT. i was using empire inertia.
last thing after it chopped i went to clean the eyes out and i lost the screw for the eye board. will bob long send me a new one free if i call?

Oh my god you don't put any punctuation when you don't put punctiation it makes it a ***** to read your post hopefully teamshellshocks suggestion was the fix you need to provide more information so we can better assess a resolution to your problem how do you like reading posts with no punctuation

Please look on the trigger itself as well as the inside of the frame. I suspect one of the surfaces has a less than smooth finish and may be causing it to squeek. Either way call up BLAST for help.

a better way to do this is to start threading the set screw and then apply some loctite onto the exposed threads and turn in the screw intil the trigger is held stiff. Then, squeeze it so it stays held in and then turn it out until it snaps back. Now turn it out a HAIR more an let the Loctite set.

Got my onxy (4 eye) on weds and used it this weekend. Had it on 15 cap and ramp. All stock parts and a velocity loader at force 1 settings. Noticed it seem to “skip” shots or hesitate when I really got on it. Is the marker out shooting the loader? Also noticed over
The chrono where its like 20 feet to wall it was ball on ball accurate. However out on the field at shots 50 ft and over the ball would go right, left, up and down. Whats up? I tried a couple of different barrels and a couple of brands of paint. Same paint & same barrels on my 06 ego was fine at distant accuracy (shooting through holes in those big wood wire spools, etc). shooting through a 3inch hole with the onxy at 50 ft was dang near impossible. Is this normal?

4thDegree · 10-09-2006, 05:57 PM

It is not normal. I would attribute the skipping shots to the hopper. Was your barrel clean? This would be my thoughts on why your balls were curving.

O-Dog24 · 10-09-2006, 07:32 PM

The problem I'm having is that I can't adjust my reg while the marker is air'd up. It's so hard to turn the allen key, it started stripping the threads on the reg. Any ideas, or should I send the reg back to BLAST?

wgp_frontman · 10-09-2006, 08:05 PM

what tool do you use to adjust the trigger?

moosecakes · 10-09-2006, 08:10 PM

o dog, get a BRAND NEW 1/8th allen wrentch, undo and redo the screw while its un aired. it might just be too tight with the factory thread sealer.

Quick Trigger · 10-09-2006, 08:38 PM

HELP MEEEE

So today I went to my field to shoot it for the first time....

First thing that happend- the first time I aird it up, it leaked a lot through the barrel, but I fixed that by screwing in the back plate screw a little tighter- is that normal? and this screw comes loose like every 3 rounds, so in the middle of a round it leaks and I have to call myself out.

Second thing- I chopped A LOT, most were barrel breaks, but I chopped 2 times in the breech, it took me like 45 min. to clean it out... could this be because of dwell? all my dip switches are off, #6 is dwell if i believe? and I think #6 off means dwell=8

thanks
