sounds like a possible compression issue... What is it chronoing at?

last chrono was 250, but that was before the spring change. It might have been, but I checked that.

Even with the stock spring you should have been over 300. Wierd...

wat u mean by diving??? how far does it shoot before it dives? Its diving at about 10'-20' out of the barrel...I gotta angle it up just to hit the guest parking sign when I'm shooting from my garage.

its gotta be a compression problem, not enough air to push the bb out

did you put in a new spring? is the hop up seated correctly close to the gearbox?

iono from what u described there is definitely air loss, did u do the compression check with the pistion and cylinder? by pushing the cylinder head into the piston while covering the cylinder head hole?
was it shooting fine before you installed this new spring?

Everything is lined up. No cracks, had the same problem before changing the spring. I did do a compression check, and I was good... I dunno, about the hop-up, I'll check that when I get hm...d**n gun!

Well, I finally figured out what the problem was (with help from jester). The inner barrel was ever so slightly bent, sammus noticed it first, but jester made the call. That's for all the help from everyone here.
