How far will your gun fire ?

[Shadlad]

Want to set up a chart on how far you think a paintball gun can fire. Your gun is set at 300 fps and will include bounce etc It does not matter if it is on target or near the target it is how far you can fire it. I havean issue with my local council who believe a paintball gun can only shoot a short distance. I will not say what distance to make it your choice. As I said this is the max distance not on target.

roughly 200m depends on the gun aswell cus a an a5 with a flatline or apex will go further

what are we saying here, flat along the ground, or if you shot it into the air to get the most distance

Just imagine we were in a game where we all stood in a line and fired a gun. The winner would be the ball that ended the furthest away. So basically anyway you want.

I am going to try and make a point to local council on how far people need to be away from a gun with out safety netting to have zero chance of being hit.

Thanks

Yes, if you shoot it up 200ft, it'll have to come down as well. So that's 400ft.

Everyone know that longer barrels have longer range.
