Hey Nation, well I decided to get a Mini and the one thing I hav not been able to find both through the site and google are definitive #s on the Minis efficiency. Can anyone here tell me what I can expect out of it once I get a better barrel and tune it? Possibly the ndz v3 bolt would help? Thanks in advance!

stock bolts great stock barrels great. i only use a mini and i can do anything someone using a luxe can

Thanks for the quick reply, but that doesnt really help me with the efficiency #s

i agree. have a stock mini its perfect once you get yours and shoot it you will see there is nothing that needs to be upgraded.

The only problem with the V3 bolt, as I understand it, is that it can be temperamental at times and requires a good bit of repetitive tuning to keep "perfect", but those that enjoy them seem to swear by them. I seem to do fine with the stock bolt, though I always get something other than the stock barrel.

I can usally get about 1300 to 1400 shots out of a 68/4500. If you follow Max's tuning guide you can get it to that.

Efficiency numbers are usually fairly rough, and depend on the bolt, paint to bore match, consistency of the regulators, and how it is tuned. It's safe to say though that if it is well tuned, the numbers will not disappoint.

i have a completely stock mini (-barrel, on/off) and i use a 68/45 with a myth reg. anyhow, the most recent clear count i got was 1000-1200 shots with 1500-2000 psi left in the tank.

That would mean your mini has better efficiency than vices and egos, I dont think so...Though if it were true I'd really jump on a mini right now. Efficiency is the only thing holding me back as I want an efficient gun to replace my pmr.

You can def tune the Mini to get some crazy shot counts out of it, but I haven't personally seen one that is more efficient than the Ego. Just my observations though.
