what speed is considered fast? with rt

[drewrw]

What is considered "decently fast" on a mech RT? Just curious what you guys thought. And thats without rapid-fire. :headbang: ;)

BPS-----16? 15? 14? 13? 12? 11? 10? 9? whatcha think

11-13bps w/ ULT

[trains are bad]

10 bps

[Thordic]

10 bps

10 is fast for a classic mag.

12-14 would be fast on a RT.

But you can't sustain BPS as well on an RT as you can on an electro it seems. Works fine for snap shooting though. :)

agreed. 12-14bps on a ULT Mag is decent speed, but not easily sustained as is my emag.

[trains are bad]

Sorry, I think you are falling for BS. A sustained 10bps is damn fast for an Rt without special firing techniques.

I think people forget what true 13bps sounds like.

I should make a little metronome thing for paintballers.

Realize an m16 fires at a little over 10 rounds per second.

[yakitori]

we are talking about 13 bps for about 5-6 shots or even 8. And yes that it possible. I know what 13 sounds like cause I use an emag for my main marker, and my backup ULT mag is very fast for about 5-6 shots.

I sound test myself at home, its not BS. 9-10 BPS is easily attainable on an intelliframed classic mag.

12-14 is attainable on a ULT RT.

These are peak speeds, your average will be lower depending on how long your sample time is.

[drewrw]

Thats funny. When i posted a vid not to long ago i was sustaining 10-11 bps and lots of people said I was slow. In the vid i could get much faster but i wanted to wait and make a better vid with a better cam. z-man did a sound test on it. Thats wiithout ult. Interesting.

[drewrw]

Do you guys wanna see the vid or the sound test LMK

[68magOwner]

10 bps on any mech (other than hAir, ect) is very fast

[trains are bad]

12-14 is attainable on a ULT RT.

without fanning, or walking, or sweetspotting? sorry, don't believe it.

[thelane]

yes plz sho us the vid dreww

:shooting: :dance:

Are those somehow nonvalid ways of shooting a paintball gun? How else are we supposed to shoot it? Shooting the traditional way, you cant expect to get over like 8 bps, and thats with any gun.
I've got around 12 on a single trigger old skool rt fanning.. no ult.. what a workout :p
I get 12-13 fairly consistantly on my ult mag fanning it..
I would say 14-15 is just about the limit for legal shooting with mags. I dont know if anyone can shoot that fast though.
I consider 12-13 decently fast :)

[punkncat]

I am not sure what you mean by "rapid fire". RT's by their very design have a built in sweetspot. With the right frame or sear rod , on/off, or pressure adjustment they can scream. We have all seen Zmans video.....

With a Logic frame on my RTP and the stops adjusted just so I could easily get it to fire faster than my egg.

[ojhspyro89]

Show the vid and ill do a crude sound analysis.

[Lorenz0666]

i was happy when i got 11 bps on my x valved minimag

[Thordic]

without fanning, or walking, or sweetspotting? sorry, don't believe it.

Whats wrong with fanning or walking if you can do it right? Tard.

[warbeak2099]

Agreed, fanning my ULT'd RTcustom I get around 12bps.

But what about rapid-firing? I know Z-man can get like 30bps with a 3000psi scuba tank hooked right into the side of the valve. But what's average? What can the average person do with say 4500psi flatline, lotsa shims on their ult, and an x/rt-valve of course?

[drewrw]

yes plz sho us the vid dreww

sure no prob.... ill post the link in a sec

I dont need you to do a sound test. I had z-man do one... i trust him more than anyone on this forum so...... but anyways here is the sound test lol

[drewrw]

Oh and the link to the vid----

Rapid fire means finding the sweetspot and the trigger bounces off your finger with increased input pressure. With 800PSI at least I, cant hit the sweetspot. So it is different than pulling the trigger every time(fanning) which is what I do-at least in the vid. If you claim to have seen all of z-mans videos then you should know what Rapid Fire means. :headbang:


Oh and preach on Thordic.... good points :headbang:

[warbeak2099]

Yea, and how fast is that on average? Average meaning, a tank (flatline) inputting around 1000psi into an x/rt valve w/ or w/o ult (many shims of course).

:) I'm not entirely sure that's completely accurate.

[drewrw]

I would think you would at least get 18 like that but dont hold me to that. I have never rapid-fired before. :rolleyes:

Thats false , atm743 had his r-t sweetstoped with a crossfire ,Dj89 and I wwew there to witness it , its was amazing

[drewrw]

ok and what is your point. Im missing it.

[MonsterMag]

m point is that with alot of time tweaking you can sweetspot a r-t and make it go fast ;)

[drewrw]

The thing is I dont want to sweetspot it nor do I need to. And, in my post, I stated that I could not get the sweetspot with a 800psi tank. I never said you couldnt do it? Right? Kinda seems like your putting words in my mouth. I never made a generalization.

[MonsterMag]

sorry :(
