My friend and i made a pretty big pnuematic gun. It shoots mni tennis balls about one hundred metres (6 b-ball courts) however because it was built for a so called 'science experiment' we had to downsize the range capabilityes. How can we increase the range capabilities, with out changing the 800 PSI pressure tank.
(would barrel length make a difference)
