Fps drama

Evening all,

so I have put together a quick build with some bits I had in the garage. I brought a max pro hop as the spare I had was bust. It’s running a max 21.25mm nozzle, maple leaf bucking. Compression from cylinder was fantastic no leaks. Inside the gb is a 13:1 gear set with a ASG 18k motor. I had two inner barrels that I’ve tried a brass 280mm and a steel 240mm I think. I am getting on the brass a range between 160 -280 and on the steel it never got past 150. 🤦‍♂️ 

there is no delay chip on as there wasn’t in this gb before. 
any ideas ?

FYI was testing with 0.28g bbs. I grabbed a hi cap mag to test but normally I run mid cap pts epm1 mags so not sure if it’s a feed issue?

What's the cylinder type, and what's the spring if you happen to know?

With that much fps variation, potentially the bucking is folding at the lips? If you haven't already, maybe try a variety of different buckings, and ideally a different hop chamber at least to rule that out.

Spring I think in m100. Cylinder I can’t remember the exact type but the port looks to be about two thirds down the cylinder

Ok cool I have a couple of stock buckings I can try. Maple leaf have given me the occasional issue in the past however this one looked to be positioned correctly compared to those that have given me grief
