Hey Guys,

I recently started spudding as a hobby and i started off by making a pneumatic spud. I made one with totally galvanized fittings and pipes. My gun has a 30 cubic inch tank and a half inch bore! Well i was wondering how i can improve the range and velocity of my air gun? Should i use a bigger chamber or should i increase the pressure? (Current Pressure - 150 psi)?? I can shoot a double a battery a good 70-100 on abt 150-160 psi but i want like about 200 mts range and abt 500+ fps...so wht shd i do to improve my gun performance to this standards???? NEED HELP!!!

CHEERS GUYS,
AND THNX IN ADVANCE!

HACKERZLORD007,

PM me. Not sure why you posted this twice (as well as PMing me and asking me the same question).

Do your own research, you have been given a wealth of information from several members, more than enough to hit the ground running. I don't want to see you asking this question again.
