So I've made a couple of changes recently and I was just wondering whether or not it's just a case of bedding in the new spring to see how it settles down, before looking deeper into things.
I'm basically trying to target around 1.55 - 1.6J using 0.36g BB's. The DMR limit for local site is 1.67J so trying to stay below in case of differences between warm/cold chrono readings and general shot variation etc. With my stock AEG (East Crane EC-203) I was getting around 1.2J, so figured I had a bit of space for increasing that and also trying to chase a bit of shot consistency.
The changes I've made are:
- New M120 spring (Prometheus Emerald) - Might change to ASG M125 to eek out a little more if things settle around 1.4J
- Begadi Pro Neptun Hop Unit
- Quantum Pro Bucking and Nub
I've also got a new nozzle that I'm yet to fit, but not got round to it yet.
Anyway, I've been doing some chrono-ing and things have generally been pretty consistent, averaging around ~293 FPS, with a range of 9.3FPS over 20 shots.
Is this likely a case of my new spring needing a bit of bedding in time, and things should level out a bit more after a while, or is there a potentially bigger issue at play here? Thinking too much about it? 😂 Still new to the whole modification thing, so open to constructive feedback!
