: I've got a 98 with a tippman ex-chamber and a proballistics drop forward. Ever since I put it all together it seems that my co2 is running out real quick, making me think its leaking somewhere. I can't hear any co2 leaking out and i sealed everything i was supposed to. Should I just take everything apart and seal it up again? Any tips?
While an expansion chamber can help use CO2 more efficiently, it also wastes CO2, because the CO2 in it gets dumped when you de-gas the gun, rather than being used. If you didn't have a CO2 efficiency problem to start with, the chamber can hinder rather than help.
See you on the field,
