    RT'ing my Minimag

    I am trying to RT my minimag, however it will burst about 3 or 4 shots before it chuffs and I have to pull the trigger once or twice to get it to reset properly.

    I'm running an X valve, ULT, Level 10. Velocity is 230 f/s.

    Am I short-stroking? bolt sticking? The ULT is kind of new, does it need to be worked in more? The ULT spacers are maxed out, one more and the valve wont fit anymore.I don't know, I am kind of new to mags.

    If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it.

    Use a stock on/off or get yourself a adj reg that goes up to 1000+

    A little advice. If you have a double trigger frame, you'll get better results by trying to fire it with your finger further up the trigger. It's all about leverage. Placing your fingers further down the trigger and you'll actually slow the reactivity.

    Awesome, thanks Ando!

    When I bought the X valve, it had an E/X mag on/off in it, which I sold because the pin was too short. Does anyone have an extra stock x valve on/off or an RT on/off? I have to order a ninja rebuild kit to up my tank pressure.

    You should have kept the shorter emag on-off pin. They work great for RTing, especially if you are using the quad oring.
    Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

    Ya bro. You should always keep your stock valve parts. You never know when you'll need it. You could have gotten away with the short pin if you had removed the quad and installed a regular mech oring.

    O'well. Lesson learned. You'll find on/off's being sold here on the forums or just get one from Tuna or AGD.

    I would still ck the lvl 10 for proper operation and proper tuning of the ULT just to be on the safe side.

    You know if you wait a bit, Ninja is going to release a reg that goes to 1200 psi just for us automag guys.
