I finnaly got a better barrel.. and a 2" Cam lock
My 2" Cam lock gives nice flow! to a 28mm barrel
My C:B is 0.32: 1 chamber = 476 ML barrel 3 meter 28 mm
I shoot my hybrid a 6x or 7x fuel = Propane

Would this give me super sonic speeds
Projectile weighs 10 grams.

Thanks !

Then your actually telling that if u would open a ball valve with ur own hands, that it would be faster than a piston valve.... :?
There is no faster valve then a burst disk it is instant flow.....

A Flywheel(with magnets) rotates around some coils wich produces voltage.. that voltage powers a condensor wich fire's when contact is interupted this is done by contact points or a CDI..

Good method but could be easyer... you need a basic shradervalve from a tire with a nut get a reducer inside tread+outside thread cut a rubber ring from your tire and put it around the bottom of the valve. it has a metal ring around it so you can't push it out of the fitting because of the ring is b...

Works great in a Camlock replace time is like 8 seconds. including fo...
