Fer chrissakes, when will people finally realise that one marker is not more accurate than another? It makes fack all difference.

I think you'll find consistancy make a hell of a big differance where accuracy is concerned! :p
Also low pressure makes it easier to hold the marker steady thus easier to be more accurate.

Totally agree with you, which it why I put "at a given velocity" and "If you can hold a marker steady". :)

Skaffen m8, i think you will find that if you fire a projectile with a large volume of low pressure gas it will have a flatter tajectory than if you fired the same projectile with small volume of high pressure gas, this is simple physiscs (and although i cant spell it i am assured that what i have just staded it true) :)

I'd love to see some real world proof of this!

Be great for me if it were true though! ;)

having owned and played a number of markers they all have different ball flight paths but to me the biggest issue is consistancy EG. if they all do the same speed you have more chance or them getting to the same place.

One theory on the are angels acuracy is down to the length or the bolt, being a shorter bolt it has more chance of twisting as it fires hitting the ball off center to some degree, in which ever plain it feels like where as a cocker, timmy or impy uses a longer bolt so is more stable through its movement path. this is less of an issue if your using a "good paint to barrel match" but if your going for a large bore barrel to increase consistancy its a big issue

there thats my 2p's worth

sorry to thread jack Please return to the shedualed program :)

I'm more inclined to believe the 'magic pixies' theory, but would be interested to see any additional info on that. :)

IF that were the case though then you should see a differance between a stock impy bolt and a cut down or 'strange' bolt.
