I love my SRS!!
I bought one of the first Gen 2 batches last year and have progressivly upgraded and tuned it whilst the new developments are being made.
I have gone through:
I have finally settled on what i beileve to be possibly the best i cant get out of the rifle. My "Honeybadger"
The setup is as follows:
SRS 22" rail system
SRS 16" outer barrel
Unbranded suppressor w/ homemade scouring pad filling
Hawke 3-9x 42 scope
Sniper Mechanics SRS W.A.S.P set to full break and heaviest weight.
EDGI 450 FPS spring
EDGI dual bore barrel 5.95-6.05x420mm inner barrel
Silverback 60 Bucking w/ silverback "flat" nub
Silverback 2018 Fast Hop
I have also ground off the guide lug on the cylinder for a smoother bolt pull.
Using this setup the gun is alost inaudible at 3m and at a 2.19J @ 0.45g setup is touching 95-100m flat in the right conditions.

Evening guys. Just a quick question. Was the srs gen 1 any good or is it still a good bit of kit?

Hi all, I'm looking for some help.
I've got the 16" covert with WASP piston and just upgraded to the fast hop, TNT barrel, TNT bucking and Tigra nub, M150 spring but I'm only ranging about 55 meters before the bb dips. (.48g, 317fps, 2.15j) I could only use 0-2 on the hop wheel before the bb's jam.
I switched out the Tigra nub for the silverback one and could use 0-5 on the fast hop wheel but the distance was the same, 55 meters before dipping, I cant increase anymore hop so I'm stuck.
To me with these upgrade I should be getting a better result!?
I feel the gun shot better with the original hop, barrel, bucking. I may have to put that back in to test.
Does anyone have any ideas?
I was hoping to be nearer the 75 meter mark to be honest (flat trajectory)
Another sniper forum i was on basically said my TNT parts were crap and not much better than the stock parts?

I've just swapped out my tnt barrel for a pdi.
First thing is to check if you have a 100% seal. The WASP can be picky on the lube used, I would definitely try putting in the stock piston and retrying.
I got rid of my WASP and settled on the mouse fart piston head.
Nothing wrong with the stock barrel, I'd try that with the fast hop using the standard bucking, maybe try with/without the wasp as it's a quick change.
Only reason I changed the barrel was due to over tightening the hop screws and damaging my original one.
The SRS can be a pain to setup if you change too many parts at the same time.
Also try some different bb brands and weights. I have seen people have issues like yours (no hop,no hop. no hop, jam) on certain bbs.

Cheers for the reply mate.
The WASP i had on before I changed to the TNT parts and it worked well so I'd be surprised if it was that but you never know
Someone posted just above with the same weight bb's n joules and is getting almost double the distance so I need to figure this out lol.
I might take apart the fast hop n try again. The Joules I'm getting seems OK so if I had an airleak would it not be lower? Same with the FPS output, it just seems like the bb's aren't being lifted well enough.
That points to the fasthop, bucking and nub to me, what do you think?
I might try the silverback bucking n nub on the TNT barrel like you mentioned and if that doesn't work I might try the old barrel on the fast hop, silverback bucking n nub.
What distances you getting on your set up mate?
