I own Phantoms and have never owned any Carters, just shot a couple a few times. Now they are pretty smooth and built real solid, but wondering what the primary differences are? I have a couple Phantoms with the old school power tubes and they sometimes blowup balls because of the blast of CO2 and from what I understand, Carter's use that same type of powertube (without the "tuned port compensator" like my newer Phantoms). How is it that Carters do not tend to break balls like the older Phantoms? Is it the powertube, or the valving, or????
