FSC Ball Chopper Supreme

[CUBE]

So I've got me the First Strike FSC. Thing is cool, but I can't put a magazine through it without a ball chop. Literally unusable. Has anyone some tips on how to make it actually work? I was running it at 280, so the next thing to try is lowering the velocity. Field paint is... tiny and football shaped, so I don't have much of a choice there.

How thick is the shell on that paint? My fsc works great, but as with all things mag fed, thin “tournament” shell paint can’t survive the mag stack.

It's this stuff:

The field also has one of GI Sportz' lower end field paints. Maybe the lower end would have a thicker shell. My friend tells me that FSC is super sensitive to paint type.

file a ramp on the top of the bolt, diy a fomie bolt tip.
and +1 on "low end" paint. thin shell is not designed for the forces of mag fed.
