Hi, I am new to potato cannons. I have made only one, however I have caught the bug!

I searched the site and can not find stats on high velocity cannon records.
Is there an official chronograph-ed fps record? I want to try and break it with my next potato

Hello there ! If you mean fps with an actual potato then Killjoys FEAR is sure one of them.. ( not sure if chronograph-ed, but anyway.. can't go wrong with 50ft barrel :D ) http://www.spudfiles.com/hybrid-cannon- ... c7857.html
