:shock: thats news to me :lol: my dad wont let me download it because my mum has work on the computor and my sister accidentally gave the computor a virus a few months ago so my dad is reluctant to download anything that could screw the computor up again even though ggdt is perfectly safe.

He doesn't have to know ;)
You should get AV/AS software that isn't norton and a decent firewall like comodo or zonealarm.


The results are something you probably wouldn't want to shoot at your friends. 900 fps with 250psi and 950 with 300.

:shock: :D :twisted: i will work out roughly how far it will shoot in the morning, imagine the power with an air rifle pellet :twisted: and could you please put the same setup through with a .20g bb at 250psi. thanks.

According to the EBC, it'll go about 300 ft when shooting level.

sounds about right, according to a tool i found it will shoot ~450ft before hitting the ground, i'm hoping to be able to shoot 300ft accuratly with a scope of course

Where did you get EBC figures for a QEV?
I've been looking all over for 3/4" GGDT figures for an American QEV.

A bit unrealistic in my opinion - it's hard to hit a target at 300 feet with this setup firing 1 gram 0.22 pellets at 900 feet per second.

I think you should be thinking in terms of 12 ft/lb air rifle ranges, ie less than 150 feet. In order to reach 300 feet you'll be aiming several feet above your target with the trajectory of a howitzer, not to mention the effect of the wind on light projectiles at that distance.

I dissagree, there are plenty of airsoft snipers that can do that just fine. I think he needs a hopup. How to do that within 6mm without purchasing a hopup barrel i'm not sure though.

EDIT: I also think that a 1/2" QEV is unnecessarily large. Thepopo did some testing with a 1/8" QEV, a 1 1/2" 3/4" nipple for an airchamber, a 509mm deepfire tightbore barrel, and a .25g ksc bb. It went through the top of a popcan and out the bottom at point blank. According to this test,

I think that he should be getting 650=fps... So yeah, you don't need that large of a QEV...

EDIT EDIT: Oh crud, it was a .25.... Darn, popo needs to try it with a .20...

You would have to be firing on a windless day, but yeah it could be done with a lot of patience.

Edit- I don't think it could be done with airsoft bb's.

Have you ever tried shooting at a target beyond the length of your bedroom? What sort of an airsoft sniper can shoot a BB fast enough to reliably hit a 1 foot square target at 300 feet and still be safe to use in an airsoft game?
