That all depends on your barrel length, look up the calculations, they're pretty simple.

thats just ridiculous
why would he want 3:1 ratio when he can get nearly the same results from a 1.5:1 ratio?
not saying that 3:1 is bad...just pretty dumb considering you need twice the materials for a barely noticable increase in power.

I assume that, because you are calling it a "resivoir", this is to be a pneumatic?

That being said, download the GGDT, and play with the values until you are happy. I can be reached over AIM for tecnical suport.
