Well I was out playing this past weekend for the first time a quite a while and my gun was, imo one of the lesser performing guns although many of theirs had mods but there was a significant velocity gap. The stock Tippman 98, a spyder, and a wall-mart Tach 5 ( I belive it's called) all shot with more force than mine. I played around with the springs but couldn't spot a significant increase in the velocity. I don't really understand the springs. If someone could explain how they work maybe I can see what a different setup would do. I know the rear spring on the bolt pushes the ball forward allowing the CO2 to shoot the ball out and that a stiffer spring helps, but I don't see how when the CO2 is what propels the ball not the spring force if I am correct. And I have a lower tension spring on the cup seal, my thought behind that is that more CO2 can go through before the cupseal closes. Am I right so far thinking that? Would you suggest I go back to the smaller barrel since it is shorter?
