I pick up on a new bolt use it this weekend. Its nice, don't about that hpr pressure drop, then again I was playing in the cold and raining weather.

But anyways, it perform well except when you push the bolt to far into the chamber or the ram moves and then miss pushing the pin onto the ram. It could be kind of a pain to lift the bolt pin back up and get it out. One thin i did it air it up then line up the bolt pin on the ram. This way the ram wont move on you.

It is worth it, uuumm I don't know. Oh yeah it does have a different sound signature. Very quiet

The bolt pin assembly has to break in. Yes, it is a pain in the *** to move at first. It took me a while to get mine broken in, and now it's easy.

What's really cool is when you can get your g6r as quiet as a spool. It's an added edge on the field, that's for sure

I'd make a video of dropping the pressures for you guys, but i don't think it will show the true difference. Broken in guns are so different than new guns and allow for much lower pressures. I'd bet that if I put this bolt in my g6r that I used last season, I'd have 60 on my lpr and 150 on my hpr easily @ 285

I believe u tim. My new premium shoots really smooth and its not even close to broke in.

Nevets · 10-22-2012, 03:55 PM

After this last weekend I really want to see how this will change my G6R.

Since I'm getting PMs about the bolt and whether or not it's worth it:

They are most definitely worth it. They really lower the pressures, raise your fps, reduce kick, easier on paint, and make your gun quieter.

Everyone spends more money on bw bolts and the new luxe engines that do nothing, while they question why should they spend 100 on a bolt for the g6r that does a LOT.

Too me, it's a no brainer

All my Timmys are spool valve quiet. Always have been.

My GEN4 has a little more solid/powerful umph (only a tad louder than the rest) to it's sound but it's still damn quiet.

Stinky Pete · 10-22-2012, 05:29 PM

I'm a bit curious of the weight. How much heavier is this bolt compared to stock? I assume it's heavier as it has aluminium "intergraded" in it.

I'm also a little confused. Sure, more mass (this requires that my assumption is correct) knocks the poppit up faster and harder so you'll be able to lower the hpr = quieter shot, but how this can contribute to less kick is something I don't understand.

I'm sure it's more complicated to manufacture than the stock- and other aftermarket bolts but come on... 100 bucks for a bolt??? That's just ridiculously over priced. Heck, you get the complete DART kit (bolt, poppit and valve) from Planet for 95.

The sad thing is that I'll probably buy this anyway just to try it out.

loki1313 · 10-22-2012, 06:45 PM

I'll wait for a BST used one

Mr. Stealthy · 10-22-2012, 07:00 PM

I would really like to check one of these out at a bit of a lower price point.

saunders182 · 10-22-2012, 07:32 PM

I just ordered one ( Thanks for your help Tim.) I'll be playing a scenario Sunday and let you guys know how it works. I'll try to get some chrono videos too with this bolt vs pillow bolt vs stock 2012 G6r bolt.
