    quick question for you all

    Ok you ready, time for a nice spell checked topic.


    Ok I have person (don’t my friend) and he sitting here telling me that he can shoot 24bps, cocker are better then Timmy, more accurate cause they are closed bolts….


    Now I know that accuracy is cause by paint to barrel match (I think this is right? Is it) but for some reason he doesn’t believe me..i want to know If anyone has ever tested this out and could give me the results

    Thanks you

    24pbs, possibly, but with the help of ramping, bounce, or other factors, just not on his own. he may just be lying also.
    cockers are slightly better, when you shoot slowly. give the ball enough time to sit in the breach, then fire. but at high rof's they act just like an open bolt marker. but yes, most of the acuracy comes from paint to barrel match.

    As for the 24 bps i cant help you. For the closed bolt vs open bolt; http://www.warpig.com/paintball/tech...osedopen.shtml

    He can't pull 24 bps, he might be able to shoot that fast with ramping/trigger bounce.

    His MARKER may be able to hit 24bps, but I can guarantee HE cannot. Humans are pretty limited to around 13bps with their fingers (and even 13 is stretching it).

    No marker is more accurate than another, no barrel is inherently more accurate than another. No marker shoots farther than another with the same ball speed. No marker shoots "harder" than another with the same ball speed. Closed bolt shoots the same as open bolt/spool valve/tappet valve etc.

    Squid, think mechanical, not electric. My Emag will easily hit a counted and verified 26bps...but not with my fingers doing the work.

    People just can't move their finger that fast. 13bps, to the ignorant, sounds very fast---which brings up the bragging about how "I can do 15-18-20 on my Spyder".

    Manny Francia, who was VERY fast with a mechanical trigger, averaged 13bps.

    Sure, dope it up with ramping and anyone can whack out 20-24-30bps....but are they really, or is the gun?

    Yeah totally...13?...no...now I dont believe 24 is possible...(maybe but for one godlike human in this sport)...but 13 I know that I can pull faster than 13...and personally I know that im definatey not the fastest fingered guy out there.

    Non-biased: finger speed

    That was just the first one that popped up. 13bps has been the accepted maximum for many years.
