callumbagshaw Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Hi all, I've searched for an answer to this but been unable to find one. Perhaps my question is so stupid it hasn't been worth asking... Anyway, I'm receiving a new inner barrel & bucking within the next week for my KJW KC-02 - I've been told I may have to send around 1.5.k/2k rounds through it to get the hop bedded in properly. My question is: does the weight of the BB have any effect on how fast, or how well the bucking beds in? I'll be using .32g BBs (or heavier) once the hop is bedded in, but it seems a waste of good (and expensive) BBs to use them to bed the hop in.... would some blaster .2's (or even crappier) do the same job? Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Samurai Posted June 12, 2017 Supporters Share Posted June 12, 2017 Who came up with that number? I have experienced bedding in only once and that was with my sniper rifle. A couple dozens of shots cleaned any residue from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters jcheeseright Posted June 12, 2017 Supporters Share Posted June 12, 2017 Yeah, I've never had to 'bed in' a hop rubber. Sounds like standard safe zone bullshit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters sp00n Posted June 12, 2017 Supporters Share Posted June 12, 2017 That's only with tha FE70 hop rubber, as it massively over hops everything when new. However seen as the FE70 is no longer in production, I doubt you have one off them. most other hop rubbers take very little to bed in edit :- any bb weight will do if you want to try and bed the stock hop rubber in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A girl posted on the Facebook group saying she'd experienced problems but had to bed it in (can't remember if she said how many bbs it took or anything so the 1k-2k figure was taken from the FAQ). Cheers though if it's not hopping properly I'll be sure to use some .2's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be tempted to try it first, if it's not very good, stick 100 bb's through it then try it again etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
