well, its 1:59 and the words are dancing, so excuse any miss-spellings....

anyway, earlier today, i was bored, and did a little test, and i was wondering if anyone could help me with any reasons why this is possible:

Test Compodents:
-Zeus
-12 Grams
-Draxxus paint

Variable 1- Shots able to be fired with 1 ball in the "chamber"
Variable 2- Shots able to be fired with 2 balls in the "chamber"

Test #1
V1- 16 Shots
V1- 17 Shots

Test #1
V2- 28 Shots
V2- 23 Shots

I know air excaping when u screw the 12 gram in differs, but i didnt hear a big difference in the amount of air that excaped.

so.... any ideas?

What do you mean, balls in the "chamber"? Balls in the barrel? Balls being fired at once?

balls in the barrel

Wow, someone was bored!!!!! I beilive the reason is the amount of back pressure in the chamber, if you fire one ball, the valve closes with a certain amount of pressure still behind it, and with 2 balls, the residual pressure behind the valve is higher!! Probably due to the fact that the single ball will travel further down the barrel during valve open time than 2 balls during the same amount of time!!! You will notice, if you measure, the velocity of 2 balls is significantly lower than the single ball!! I know, it's late, hope this makes sense!!!
