New TAC-41 LS Hardly any change in Joule after switching to 120Nm spring

[ParHunter]

Hi

 

I just picked up my new TAC 41 LS and of course one of the first things I’ve done is to swap to the stronger 120Nm spring.

On the normal spring it chronoed on somewhere between 1.6 and 1.7 Joules which was more than I thought it would (I didn’t have heavy BBs yet so I just used some 0.25s. Might try my 0.32 tomorrow).

I then switched the springs. It was not as easy as was shown in the video from Silverback but I managed to get the springs back in.

When I then chronoed it again it only went up to 1.8 Joules. That sounds like there could be an air seal problem? How do I figure out what is going on there. What Joules do you get on the stock spring and the 120Nm spring?

 

I think they must have played around with the rifle in the shop as the first time I’ve shot it with no magazine(!!!) something got shot out. There must have been a bb still in.

Buy proper heavyweight bb's. 

 

The short barrel means the heavy joule creep. 

 

You should also never test the joules on anything less than your in-game weight as well really.

What is the recommended BB weight for a TAC 41 LS? 0.45?
