Range & Accuracy

[Kattman]

Check out this article I read on this Web site. It might change the way we think about barrels and their performance.

Didn't change the way I think... I already knew that and agree with it.

Yep read it, agreed with it. Still not completely convinced on the tragectory front though.

/me smacks Paul around the head with a physics book and hundreds of years of ballistics theory/proof.

Yeah I know and I argued the point myself sooo many times, and I know deep down that its true but and theres always a but my angel felt like it used to lob maybe its the plop sound that angels make which does it... I dunno

Me wants to see bench mounted test!

I have noticed that with angels too, i have also heard alot of people complaining about it....

Maybe WDP haven't got the timing of the bolt and hammer right? Maybe the air is pushing the ball halfway down the barel before the bolt is forward?

But i too want to see a bench test.

Pauls Angel

Paul's Angel was sooo bad I only had it 3 weeks and had to get rid of it

Only joking, it was alovely gun but just not for me, I sure her new owner will fair much better.

I do agree with the Angel thoughts, it was the most inaccurate marker I have shot since I got rid of my Spyder SE with what was about a 3" barrel I think ( Ok maybe it was a little longer!)

I'd be interested in them doing tests on paint for consistency and accuracy as this I where I think things differ radically

The words Grandma, suck and eggs spring to mind, sorry to bore you all!!!!!

You to huh??

I think all that angel needed was a lil trip down to wdp for a damn good tune up! After I sold her I used some other angels man, what a differance didn't feel anywhee near as 'clunky'.

I trust you made a nice profit from the angel sale davo??


Laterz,

Paul.

P.S.
And don't mess with ya cocker!!!!

Cockers

Dont think I'll be messing on with the Cocker too much, I spent three hours this afternoon looking for the on/off switch !!

My angel shoots straight and flat, just like my cocker. Most people who say their Angels lob just need a good tuneup.
