Seems to be working as advertised thus far only used it for 3 paintball days as of right now. No issues besides me not initially installing the cyclone-feed gas regulator, was having issues with feeding paint using the stock one. Which isn't a design flaw just my initial laziness for not installing it. Not sure it's really a needed upgrade from the standard, but I like it.

As was said in previus review this bolt doesnt works as promised. Also i had played with it several games and in every game it chopped the paint. Probably cause is miscoordination between cyclon and the bolt, the bolt is trying to puch paint when it is not still in chamber. I had tryed different paint, reducing the bps and fps, uprade the cyclon all useless. So i returned the stock bolt and play without problems.

I was really excited to get this bolt. I have watched all the videos about the reviews and the instructions on how to install it, and followed them to the letter. I used Dow 33 grease that Tippmann recommends, and greased the bolt except for the bumper o-ring. Finally after installing it in my marker, I chrono'd it and found... absolutely no positive difference. If anything, my marker was now shooting an average of 15 bps lower than with the stock bolt, it was also more inconsistent. Just to make sure my marker wasn't some sort of confounding variable, I put the bolt in another buddy's phenom, and saw the same result. The paint we shot was DXS silver, Marbs, and U.S. Army (procaps). No positive differences were observed... Perhaps the youtubers used different bore paint (Smaller for the stock bolt, larger for the MRT), or my buddy and I have phenoms that are just better than the rest, or the part is defective. I am curious to see others reviews to confirm or confound my findings.
