Is it an airsoft chrony? How do you know that? I'm not familiar with those....still...common sense should tell you.... you won't get 132 fpe out of a break barrel....I wish :D

I didn't watch the video very carefully... Did you see the chrony? I was just though he's using some cellphone app to check it.

And he replaced the 177 barrel with a 22 which should give him less fps but... He's right at over 2000 fps he should get the most fast air gun, IF, his gun really can do so ~ :D ( I wish my HW40 shoots as this fast ~ lol~ a real hand cannon then!)

No, no~ 'soft' chrony means the apps , software... Like a soft copy vs hardware, hard copy, hard chrony.... ^_^

He's def using an APP. Because sound threshold setting on that screen shot. 2040 FPS would be super sonic and LOUD.

Oh yeah, when I watched it, I turned on the volume (I usually not as I am in work), and just want to hear how loud it is.... But it just disppointed me....

Well...I guess the lesson here then is...use a REAL chrony and never mind the apps....

What I always say.

Something there isn't a APP for that. Sometimes you need the proper equipment.

Not the fastest, even if he did use a Chrony…. topic76526-90.html

Note Lloyd Sikes still has me beat at 2162 fps....

Wow... Just can't imagine how fast and how's it presents when an air gun shoots at that speed....

And why we need a airgun to shoot this fast and not using a powder burner?

A lot of it is about pushing the limits. And why not.

Honestly it's cheaper to get a PB. Cheaper than PCP airguns, more accurate and more power. But what's the fun in that?

Absolutely correct.... Can you imagine how fast that 1.8 gr. airsoft BB will slow down?.... Remember, this was just done to see what would happen when I tried it in a 6mm PCP that can shoot 173 FPE with a 73.4 gr. lead bullet.... With that light a projectile, 90% of the FPE went into moving the air that fast, before it even got to the muzzle.... :roll:
