I searched an could find nothing for this, so here it is.
The local CVS has begun stocking small Nerf football knockoffs. These fit great in 2" PVC pipe have a great tight fit in 1.5" PVC pipe.
Ive tested the football at 60 psi in my pneumatic gun and at a distance of 50 feet, leaves a .5" dent in 1" plywood.
The great thing about these are their price, $2 per football, and performance can be altered by removing the tail fin, dropping a few fishing weights into the nose and hot gluing or epoxying the tail assembly back in. At 75 PSI, the football disappears from view and has a hang time of about 20 seconds. I think ive praised it enough, end story is its a great cheap alternative to the mini nerfs and cheap enough to use and lose while still being a great round.
Pretty cheap and good ammo @ CVS
Thanks for the tip. I have a CVS just a couple of minutes down the road...I'll stop in and check it out my next time out.

If its 20 seconds isn't it going a little slow?

nope not yet, but im checking it out now, thanks.About hang time, have you seen this ?
And just to clarify, when im talking about hang time, im shooting the thing straight up in the air. Thats probably a given to most people but looking back, it was probably an important bit of info
I was under the impression that you fired straight up. Read on into the thread and BLB speaks of calculating hang time at angles.
