First outing with a DMR this weekend. Wow! now I need to spend big bucks on 36's as the 32's just seemed to be falling short.

Mmm, there's quite a jump in price between .32 and .36, I'm still too cheap to make the leap. If you splash the cash, it would be great to get an airsoft-metres estimate of how much more effective range you see from them.

@Rogerborg I was looking at pricing last night, 32s about £15 for 3000, 36's I was like oooo £18 that's not bad, yeah for 1000 not 3000 😐 Comparitive brand. Cheapest I've found so far is Blaster Devils for £23 for 3000.
Site I played was a 450 DMR limit, I want to see how different a 400 site feels with the same 32's. -
@Rogerborg to answer your question with the ol' range study spreadsheet @400fps equivalence (1.49j) .36's come out at 1.88m further for the "effective range" criteria, which is a hop set for 20cm of rise and the range calculated for when the bb drops back down to the firing level.
0.48's using the same criteria are 6.21m further.
of course that's assuming that the extra hop needed isn't dropping the energy, which in reality may or may not end up being more important than the theoretical improvement.
