  1. Update on the spring VSR. I kept the Laylax 130sp spring in, but I swapped the Laylax 6.03 barrel with the Crazy Jet 6.04. This brought it down by 0.03J, so it's now chronoing between 2.32 and 2.29 on .45s, so we're in business! Hopefully once the hop is properly set, the power will drop a tiny bit more, giving me more wiggle room with upping the BB weight from .45s to .48s (as I'll be transitioning to .48s with the HPA VSR)

     

    Just hoping I don't have to use separate ammo between the two VSRs; I'd much rather use .48s in both and I know the hop up can take it.

      You may very well find that adding hop increases the energy output instead of lowering it.

      Barrel diametre is just another way to fine tune the energy output.

      Just one question:

      Is there enough of a difference between 0.45g and 0.48g to justify the expense of buying a new barrel?

      Because 0.03G doesn't seem much, especially when the "base" weight is 0.4g.

       

      Also, the spring will lose some of its tension over time (all springs do, it's a matter of when, how much depends on the quality and Laylax springs are good quality anyway) so I wouldn't worry too much.

      @SkaraIt's mostly because I'll be running .48s in the HPA setup and don't want to have to buy two weights. The springer is, at the end of the day, my backup gun for if the HPA VSR has issues, so the HPA setup leads the way when it comes to BB weight. Want to go as heavy as possible because something-something-physics :P
