Does anyone think it's odd that the benchmark barrel bore/original paint size is the natural logarithm of 2? (ln2=0.69315)

I'm convinced there must be some mathematical/physical explanation for this, but i'm too damn lazy to work it out :eek:

No, I think it's odd that you think of things like that on a Friday night. :p

Um, the ln function is relevant, but it's not just ln2 lol.



Um, not really, i was just curious if anyone else had noticed that during one of their many boring physics or maths lessons....

...oh wait, paintballers don't have brains.
Sorry, maybe delete this thread :rolleyes:
or perhaps we have better things to do with our life, im hoping to do a masters in chemistry next year, so dont imply we dont have brains mate

I mean it's sad you think .693 is the benchmark barrel size, ffs it's clearly .691

What were you thinking...........................:(;)
