Look into flat hop and r hop if you're serious about range. Flat hop is easier to do but you'll have to change the bucking more often.

Just wondering, with a flat hop how often do you need to change the bucking or how do you know when it needs changing? is it an obvious performance drop?

When it Splits basically it can be whenever sometimes 3-5 games sometimes more but generally it happens quite a lot with flat hop being the only draw back with it. Having the correct nub is also important.

I have looked into flat hopping, it is something i will do in time. the orga magnus barrel is designed to be flat hopped I think I will get one and add a namuzu flathop. The wide bore decreaes fps by around 30fps orga claim. so my fps will eb down to around 300, then I will look into adding a different spring to bring me back up to about 340-350

Thanks, wasn't aware of that. I will buy a few buckings then, I'm looking at trying prometheus purple or firefly soft along with a flat nub(firefly or prometheus?)
Sorry for diverting the thread to the op, I've heard great things about the cyma aks, great inside and out, and all they really need is the usual barrel clearn etc to perform very well

I have heard purple prommy works good with flat hop

Since you have the CYMA I'd recommend doing basic reliability mods first,mainly compression since you want good range. Do note that range upgrades and accuracy upgrades go hand in hand,unless we're talking about how far you can overhop your round to space.

Dual O ring cylinder head,Oring nozzle,AOE correction,shimming,etc.. Polishing your cylinder is also a good idea. Grease it up well too.

For a barrel PDi is the best,but Laylax will feel the same since you will be firing with bursts and not single shot,it really depends on how much you want to spend.

With buckings,Maple leaf is good. PDi W hold is good too but has trouble lifting heavier rounds. G&G green is what i generally use since it's cheap and good.

Stock CYMA hop unit should be fine.

You can do flat hop,G-Hop or R-hop,I can only say that G-hop isn;t super hard and works well if you use good bucking,G&G's ones are good for this in my experience again since my old craft knife liked them more

Honestly I'm out of the loop tech wise since I've reduced chairsofting by a fair bit.

good advice, i have already order a new oring nozzle (cyma ones are crap). will look into other compression stuff you mentioned

Prommy purple works well with flat hop. I used a g&g green in mine and that works well too. I sanded the notch in my bucking down instead of slicing it with a knife as I didn't want to knacker the bucking. Went from getting 40-50 mtr range to getting 65-70 metre range and better accuracy with flat hop. I'm getting someone to R-hop it for me next month though so that I don't have to change Buckings so often.

[Josh95]

470

 

[Josh95]

500 also

 

[PT247]

ahh bum, I have a few Prommy barrels, but they are all short ones.

 

[beastmode]

Try eagle6 they have some in stock.

What ones have you got?

I noticed they have those "miracle barrels" recon theyre any good or just bullsh*t?

 

[ImTriggerHappy]

Get a pdi 6.05 instead. Try airlab for them.

 

[PT247]

Am at work now MxHaze, will have a look tomorrow
