It can make the efficiency of the marker worse if the porting exceeds past a certain point in the barrel.

After the first 8in. - 10in. in a barrel, once a paintball is fired, the paintball's velocity reaches a high point, and begins to slow down after this point. If the porting goes past this point from the tip of the barrel, this means that the gas propelling the ball will be released early, and thus causing the paintball not being able to reach it's maximum velocity in the barrel, which in the end means that you need to turn your velocity up.
