Etha 2 not shooting straight

I got a secondhand Etha2, but paint if flying off left and right all over the place.
I used some cheap field paint, the rental guns there were shooting it straight.

I will check valocity but anything else i can check out? Etha stock barrel, i lubed up the bolt proppery, the detens are fine too. it shoots at NXL 10.5 ramp mode.

Paint was quite oily compared to paint 14 year ago, it might be the paint however i did not have any breaks, eyes were on.

It looks more like a fire hose with flyers all over the place.

Most likely it is the paint if the velocity is consistent. Your case might have been more oily than what others were shooting.

Try taking a paper towel and rubbing it around in the bags of paint to soak up the excess oil. Also, make sure your hopper, barrel, and breach are all clean.

A few things to check through: o'rings on bolt assembly, inline reg (inconsistent?), board settings

It's probably the paint. Before you tear down the entire marker looking for a phantom fault. I'd run some test shots without a hopper on the marker, and a freshly cleaned barrel... and clean, round, consistent paintballs... If you can find them =P
