Hello everyone,
In my setup I have 280/6,03 prometheus barrel and stock type 2 cylinder. Trying to get 1.6j with .32g bbs. But I have started thinking about cylinder to barrel volume ratio.
Barrel's volume is 7,99cm3
Cylinder has port in 60% of height from cylinder head. By subtracting head's height it lefts 16,65 cm3, so my cylinder to barrel ratio is 2,08. Do you think I could handle .32g with this? I am worry that it might be to hight and I should look for cylinder with port in half.
I meet a lot of theories about the ratio so far. Some people say that from .30g bbs, your ratio should be at least 2:1: https://www.airsoftsniperforum.com/threads/what-barrel-length-goes-with-what-bb-weight-in-an-aeg.55635/#/topics/55635?page=1. In theory it gives the bb the air cushion and stabilize it before left the barrel.
On the other hand we have people who say, that you just need a little bit more air to stop pushing the bb when its out the barrel, to not blow it away or turn into inproper spin which can affect bad accuracy at the end of bbs fly path: https://airsoftranch.com/optimal-cylinder-to-barrel-ratio-simplified-airsoft-guide/
I am just tired with reading of all this and currently have no idea where the true is. What is your opinion?
Sorry if something may look not clear enough. English is not my native 😛
