I will clean this up into a table once the numbers are down.

-Doug

just chronoed my c8..it fires at 390fps...the rest are stock..for now...but right now...

mp5k, mp5-j, m4a1 fire at 280fps

m23 - 330fps?

Thanks, numbers are added, besides the C8, what brands are the other guns?

Also, everyone, if you get your gun chrono'd this weekend, post your numbers here for future reference.

-Doug

all of them are TM...the c8 was a TM but everything is upgraded..i guess i can't really call it TM..maybe systema?

Yeah, I think that I am going to make a new mark for complete customs, ©. When over 50% of the gun in non-stock (ie both body and mechbox), then for ease of purpose, I will mark it ©.

I have a sweet custom spring...does that count?

lol, well, at least it ain't stock I just don't want to be calling guns SystemA if there mechbox is but their body is guarder, their front is King Arms, etc. There are SystemA guns, but nobody here has the PTW.

If I tried, there is no name for that one AR something gun I have. There is nothing stock in it, it is a horrible mess of half a dozen brands and shoots about as well as a mess gun... (well, it is fixed up now, but boy the semi is un-reliable, it is more like 3round burst).

I think that it is interesting that so many TM's are used in this club. Is it just because we all started with TM or we like them?

Just got back from a game out here in sask and I got a chance to chrono my guns...

Nice! That M14 is going to be great to play against/with!

-Doug

Yah it was awesome, there were 3 out there today, and man this is a huge difference between .20's and .25's... dang... gotta get me some .25's

ill have to crono my thompson once i get some .2s unless Dave knows what fps its shooting lol . it was 235 with .25s

Edit: its new and stock and its a tm

If its a new stock TM then it'll be around 280...

According to the FPS math, you will be shooting ~262.4 FPS with .2g, or roughly 80mps. Mind you, .25g will knock a few FPS off, so you will prolly be around ~265fps. Time for an upgrade, (talk to Dave)!

Would you like to retest with .2's or just use the conversion?

-Doug

Man that seems slow... maybe he had his hopup turned up?? Anyways, Bloodsport and a few other guys were discussing the difference between .20's and .25's... conclusion... not much difference... hmm

Well, I have tested with a near "perfect" system of the best parts money can buy for internals, hop-up, and barrel, with .12, .2, .25, and .28, and yeah, the effect is minimal, but there is FPS lost, usually within mear feet. Conclusion, yeah, go with the heavier weight, a loss of 5fps (on top of normal calculated FPS) is worth the superior accuracy and brush cutting.

Mind, for his case, don't forget that unless you take a mean/standard deviation of 10+ shots, most stock guns tend to vary by 20fps per shot (again another reason to upgrade and use heavier shot, less FPS varience).

-Doug

okay so Dave what should i buy to up this things fps??

I would just get a tightbore. It would give you better accuracy and maybe 20 more fps.

Edit: Horton, my m4 is shooting 380.

20fps seems a little high for just a tightbore. I got 10fps from mine going in and that was high too. Most make it go up 5-10

I can put in metal bushings and a harder spring for around $50 (give or take $10). That will take it up to either 300-330-350...choice it yours.

Jackboot, I added your fps to the list for you, I left it as a G&P(hope I got the bramd right) because I took a look at the custom build on the website and its just custom built out of G&P parts anyways...

id like it shooting around 330 . would u have to order in anything or do you have the stuff in town. also would that wear out the gun faster?

also is there anyone intown that sells lub for these guns?

Depends on what lube your talking about... gearbox yes and no, hopup and barrel yes.

Any upgrades will wear your gun out, that is the downside of upgrading. Doesn't matter what you put into it, upgrades will wear things out. Especially if the stuff you get put in don't go well together...

This thing usefull here at all?

Nice graph. Of course, these are just calculated numbers from an equation, so technical they are on some logrithmatic curve so no, there really is no difference in BB weight and FPS varience (that is why they fan out so proportionally). The graph does not take into consideration initial acceleration speeds in the barrel, thus heavier BB's take the same proportional initial energy to fire, which is not true.

We need to do our own in house graph, not one that is just an equation. I think MadMax did something...

Mind you, that does explain why you get more FPS to joules between BB weight at higher speeds, thus falsifying my current hypothesis of weight to FPS loss.

Good find, we will have to hunt down some more.

-Doug

My ICS m4 is shooting 330fps according to Mcguyver.

Yes, it should be. The MS110 spring if you install it should be pushing it up to the 390ish area.

I can see that your chart stops right at the are that my Systemas are running with the M150 kit. I guess this means you won't let me play with it at your fields? I could go semi-only, but I can still get 5+ rounds/second in semi, so it's like a burst function.
