View Full Version : Mag + Good Paint + Good Tank = Accuracy with pics to prove!

Hello everyone, I just had the pleasure of finding some new paintballs, and have had some "above average" accuracy with my nice Mag. I just got a DYE S.S for my mag (10"), and found some paint that has a perfect match....

This is for anyone that thinks Mags are somehow "less accurate" or "less range"

That is not 3 shots, but 5 , 2 stacked ontop of eachother.

The range? Perfectly level at 120-125 feet. This goes to show you what a nice setup for a mag will bring.

I measured the shots, they showed a 2-3" range from each shot including the 2 stacking on eachother. The accuracy could of been even better if I used my Max Attack system, but it wont work to my liking because I cannot use my foregrip on it.

Also, you might be wondering, what happens when you take a gun like a Autococker, do the same tests with a barrel thats .01 calibers larger? It got roughly 4-6" patterns on the same test with the same tank and same paint :)

I found this in his route directory, NOT in archives (as he coded it in his post). But the actual file name is the same.

Hope this helps.

Well… we don’t want to have people thinking I walked into his server and poked around (although that is not too hard either)… so I will be like the magician showing his secrets on this one. LOL

I have been diagnosing problems with code, sites, and servers since the WWW was created (note: that was a LONG time after the Internet was.) so I am pretty familiar with the most common causes for errors.

1) I pulled the page source and looked at his posted URL for the graphic to see if it was simply the way he posted it.

2) I checked the file name and character case by making it capital in all sorts of combinations.

3) I removed the directory name of “archives” (which was the URL he used) and replaced it with the most common image directories… such as “image”, “pics”, ect.

4) I then removed all directory locations from the URL. This would be what I call a “flat lay” where the second and third tier attributes are located in the route directory and NOT in separate ones.

BINGO! There it was! So, it was not a matter of me actually poking around, but one of deductive reasoning and a simple process of elimination. The process took all of 30 seconds, and involved NO “hacking” skills.

However, as quite a few of you know, I can discuss that issue as well. LOL So Krafty... THWACK! :D

My bro posted the pic and forgot that it wasn't in a directory. :)


A funny note is ........ I tired my angel with the same paint , and used a DYE aluminum , and it had about the same accuracy.

Funny part is , i talk to people all the time who say mags or angels can't have any accuracy because they put a ton of spin on the paintball when it's fired.
