Interesting
What type of velocity? The issue is going to be the "airsoft" quotient. (No mark means hit didn't count)
Its all in the Google docs spreadsheet. click the link in the op.Quote:

That's not okay.
Oh, paintballs with their own barrel porting. I don't see this working at all.
Why not ,, seems to made for Low Impact Indoor playQuote:

I wonder how it works with markers with eyes.
Yeah. The inference being that an Atom6 hits the ground at 25 feet. That makes for a lot of point blank showdowns, and reduces the "off season training appeal" for paintball because the play style is not longer an accurate analogue.Quote:

no reason for eyes anyway , no ball breaks
Some guns have eyes (PE, SP/Luxe, Dye, Empire/GI, Bob Longg, etc) that youcould turn them off, it can effect things like RoF (which could be set to a lower RoF than with eyes to prevent possible ball breaks because of a problem), and this shouldn't for just one type of gun (mechanical) but for all.Quote:

on best helps finding a possible problem in the gun. Yes, a L10 gun doesn't break paint, yet not every gun has that yet.
