40mm green gas shells

Im looking to pick up some co2 shells for woodland games and keep the shells i got for the multi launcher in cqb i think 

 
Good middle ground if you cba with co2 is guarder black gas - not nuprol!!! - as that is dogshit.

S-thunder are the best shells by a massive,massive margin. You used to be able to get 6 packs of shells from various brands fairly cheaply but those days are gone, sadly. 

Shower shells are obviously best indoors, and i reccomend an underslung indoors so you can fire them off quickly. Get a fair amount of shells (i use 4+1 in gun) as if you only have a few you will shy away from actually using it. And at any given time a % of your shells won't work. 

 
A few pics of my home made mcbuckshot rounds. These things work great as the skirt at the back of the shell forms a perfect air seal allowing all of the energy from the expansion of gas in a paintball style shell to be used to push the bbs down the barrel of the launcher rather than just rushing past the bbs. The front end then opens  up like a flower a few meters after being launched. Around 35 meter range with an 80bb spread when running co2 in a madbull pb4

40mm launchable foam grenades are a lot of fun too. These tend to average around 60 meters range when fired from a long barrel m203 with a paintball style shell running co2

how do you prevent the mcshotcups from being blown apart by the force? i know a mate of mine ran those same foam darts on co2 and blew the back of the thing to bits, i'd imagine a paper cup would so the same

 
If you want maximum range from shower style shells then you wont get better performance than madbull xm-204hp shells on co2. These shells are top performers due to the larger gas chamber and longer inner barrels. If you half fill them with bbs the unused portion of the tubes will act as barrels. 

The disc of glue from the hot glue gun between the two cups is fairly sturdy and takes the force. The wax paper the cup is made from is also a little tougher than normal paper. I guess the wax helps to stop the pressure getting between the papers fibres

The single piece moulding of the foam grenades prevents the fins from coming off. Nerf darts and other cheaper imitations fins are glued on and the glue cant take the force. The single piece foam grenades that i make are much tougher and can be re used over and over again. Unless you loose it that is.
