reballing problems

[oobermybeer]

any one had any problems with reballing?

iv only had 2, last night one of my club accidentally shot the fire alarm thing in the uni sports hall, haha, smashed the glass and ended up buggering it up so much it wont reset, they uni security where in and out all night!!

oh yeh, and ions + 210 FPS dont mix, they wont run under 235FPS+ haha,

Did you adjust the dwell at all on the ion? cos i had to when I used mine with reballs before

noop, its not mine, about 5 of the newer club members have ions and they dont like running at low speeds, once you get to about 235 they run fine, and the new guys ant be bothered to ajust dwell and things just for training, haha

meh we used to use them up to 300fps and they still didn't hurt much more than paint

bad for lenses though

Yeah true that^^. And if you've ever been shot on the top/back of the head or knuckles with a reball you aren't gonna want to shoot at 300

We've had the same problem with our club ions as well, and for some reason my etek won't chrono at low fps either. It shoots fine, but the chrono won't read it (exact opposite of the ions). So far no fire alarms though!

haha yeh, i have to say 300FPS with reballs is a bit excessive, they can be pretty dangerous, but still, im ok with it as its not pointed at me

reballs 4 me at about 100 fps lol.

nah it wont hurt lenses at all, they are tested at 400+ fps with metal balls
I think JT lenses are even tested against shotgun fire

Would you take a shotgun shell to the face with a paintball mask lol. The army would be wearing them lol.
