    I throw a perun ab++ (etu++ if you have the g&g etu in it) in it, get the precock running to sharpen the trigger response and I'd check you air seal. 300fps with an m115 unless you have a ported cylinder/short stroked gears I'd have expected more even with the short barrel.

    Yes, I've just done it with my 308. It foes require some cutting and additional/alternate parts, shot me a pm or make a new thread it's not a quick question thing.

    Like the other voices here, I am showing the signs of joyful abuse of the body over the years.
    Multiple reconstruction surguies has taught me there is no substitute for continuous conditioning.
    I started, many moons ago, using a program called romwod, range of movement worked on daily,  it's an Internet based video program of daily stretches and holds for strength and conditioning and its been great. It instantly helped me and I find it easier to fit in than classes, gym, etc.
     
    On days where I know I'm going to pushing it activity wise I use compression garments, company called skin makes the ones I like. And a recovery paste made by climbon (It amazing but not the cheapest).
     
    Like you i dont want to give up what I enjoy for age.

    You could try a work around/test by binding the base of the spring in the mid caps. Compression a few coils and the wire them together, you'll loose some capacity but find a coil count that works for your need feeding pressure and then cut raw springs to that number of coils.

    If the braking isn't an issue something else is affecting how the nozzle seats when the piston drops. 
    I'd look change the maxx units out for something else and also look to change the spring that pushes the hop unit back to the gearbox.
    It could be combination of things like the feed tube slightly lifting the hop away or spring not strong enough or long enough to reseat the hop chamber

    I know the stock, i have one too.
    With that stock it can be tricky as the rubber pad effectively steals some space. 
    To make life easier long term id suggest removing the stock and unplug the mosfet, then unscrew the buffer tube (long screw driver needed inside the tube, castle nut is fake) then unplug the spade connectors freeing the mosfet and wires.
    Once you have the mosfet out of the tube wrap the wiring around your finger a few times a, ease the wiring into a spiral. It'll use up the slack and not put any kinks in it. You'll also be able to get the mosfet connector back through it and the screw too when it comes to refitting.
     
    lipo wise, if you can't two cells down one side then 1 cell will have to go in the centre tube. But the new spring type shape in the wiring should mean it'll squash down a bit easier.
     
    sorry for the long post, a know a video might be easier but it's all I can offer at the moment.
     
    if all else fails have a look at the pts eps,

    Which lipo are you trying to fit and which tr16 model stock is it?
    With out seeing it and assuming a crane type stock, I'd suggest making any excess for the rifs harness is kept to in the tube space and then drop the battery lead down and up the rear ff the stock pad, towards the tube. You should be able to make a gentle curve of the wiring so you don't kink it.

    That's good to hear. A sharper response from trigger press to bb release is easy to do by adding a precocking mosfet to the build. After the first priming shot the piston is then held at the point of release so the cycle time is after bb is fired rather than before.

    There are ways to increase your rps however at 30rps already your heading into potential "wanker" gn territory.
    If your after better response times then you dont need that rps to have it.
    Precock would be the place to start if you're adding a mosfet to the system.
