DeadlyWind have designed a newer, lighter HP bolt! 6.3 grams and two-stage ID for for even less friction without risking leaks.
Now with latest aluminum (blue) bolt stalk. The HollowPoint Ion bolt is unlike any other bolt you have ever seen for the Ion or even in paintball. Over a year in development, the HP Ion bolt uses Hollow Valving technology (Patent pending) which eliminates the use of multiple ports through the bolt --the bolt is one big port! Multiple ports in a bolt introduce structural weak points and air flow turbulence. Hollow Valving allows the bolt to be much lighter, stronger, and higher-flowing. The HP Ion bolt also introduces ARB (Anti Roll Back -Patent pending). ARB eliminates the "ball roll back" problem typically caused by a deep-cupped bolt face.
HollowPoint features:
- 6.3 grams takes the cake again for the lightest bolt.... ever!
- Lowest kick.
- Over twice the valve area and flow path as a stock Ion bolt. Opens faster, flows better.
- Contiguous toroidal air flow path. No porting to break up the air flow.
- Longer bolt nose section takes better advantage of the Ion's SFT seal.
- ARB feature prevents ballstack chops caused from the ball rolling back into the cupped bolt face.
- Controlled condition testing yielded 1800 full 290fps shots @ 150 psi from a 68/45 tank. Expect to get 1500-1600 in typical use.
- Quick, easy install.
- *We do not recommend using a QEV with this bolt. It moves TOO fast and can cause paint to break. Side benefit: save yourself some $$ and complexity.
Now available for the following markers:
Works with:
- Original generation Ion, Lucky 5.1 bodies
- Ion XE, Vibe, SP1 (replaces entire end-cap assembly)
*At this time we do not suggest using the HP bolt in the Epiphany or EOS due to the higher required operating pressure.
