Should more sites weigh the bbs during chrono?

[Adolf Hamster]

I'm assuming they won't be chrono'd

Fair

How dare you Sir... I demand satisfaction!

I choose .2 bb's at dawn Monday the eleventyth of Movember.

?

As the challenged party, I claim choice of weapons.

My preferred weapons are blancmanges thrown at each other from baskets suspended from hot air balloons.

? but I love it, & hate vimto?.

You must be a haggis shagger in disguise.

 

[Lozart]

yes but the joules are not gonna change ,

I think I see what you're getting at - in a specific gun the joules at the muzzle will be roughly similar for different weights of ammo.

The problem is that some people will lie about what weight they're firing. In your given example if someone says they're firing 0.2g and the chrono measures 340fps then the gun will pass chrono, if they're actually firing 0.28+ then they have effectively cheated the chrono and are in fact firing at MORE than the limit. The chrono cannot detect the weight so the operator has to go on trust that what you SAY your are using is what you are ACTUALLY using.

Having lived in Glasgow in the distant past, I am aware that it is the contents of Ian Bru cans that are made from girders.  I am also aware that it tastes even worse than Vimto, which, given what the latter is an anagram of, is hard to believe.

Did you happen to try Buckfast while you were in Scotland, it's like a combination of Vimto, Irn Bru and  some sort of deweaponised plutonium....

No; that and Eldorado were what the alkies used to drink.

Belhaven Heavy was my drink of choice in those days, usually with the Blue Angels in the Scotia on Stockwell Street in Glasgow.

When he was young and stupid our drummer would readily get through a bottle of Buckfast during a gig; he doesn’t drink now.
