The standard valve doesn't start shooting down until somewhere around 13bps if I remember correctly. Plus with the standard valve you don't have to worry about shoot-up and silly chrono procedures.

    If I was looking for the most speed from a nonassisted trigger pull I would go x-valve and crank the pressure up.

    Well, that is a good point but some people shoot faster than 13bps. I personally can with my pneumatic frame. If you are going EP, then you are definately going to want valve capabilities over 13bps. To be honest, the classic valve atleast all I have had start to "chuff" below 13bps which is why I run RT/RTP/X valves in all of my pneumatic applications. The classics have a good rate of recharge but do tend to chuff every now and then.

        Since classic valves take longer to recharge, they need an electronic frame to run 'chuff-less' the higher they get. It's hard not to chuff a classic pneu above 10-12, but they can run with an EP frame at 15 and a little above since the frame guarantees recharge time.
