As for an insert kit increasing accuracy, hmmmm I'd have to see the pudding on that one!

808jackal also has a good idea, though that has not happened to me... yet.

None taken! Haha. And yes, that is true, it doesn't automatically mean inconsistency.

I feel like someone did a test related to control bores. Not sure if it was on efficiency, fps, or accuracy. But it tried to establish what the "best" length for control bore is.

Personally, I have an ASP modded breech on the way. Now I get the best of both worlds, freak bored barrel and detent mod. No double feeding and definitely no rollouts! Woo!

Your welcome! Grab a set of those chubby metric o rings I wrote about if your gettin the asp mod it will hold paint down to at least .673. The asp service is a great mod.

I agree with 808jackal. In my experience, that has been a REAL source of wide inconsistency. It certainly can cause WILDLY variable shots. Improper barrel sizing will cause a little variability but an unscrewed power tube/cup seal will be ALL OVER THE BOARD. A couple months back, my powertube BROKE OFF where it Screws Into the Cup, I was about to pull my hair out trying to diagnose that.
