We're going to be chronoing guns on Sunday morning before we start.

350fps max (with a 0.2g bb) for all guns except designated snipers of which there is just one: "prideofengland".

The designated sniper will be able to go up to 500fps with a 0.2g bb but has a minimum engagement distance of 25m.

However we just had word that the MAW chronos are both out of action. They're hoping to have a replacement for the event, but if anyone can supply a chrono for us to use that would be helpful. I doubt my little combro will like having 40+ guns shooting through it.

I'm happy to accept an engagement range for my 8mm too, although the 'power' isnt over 350 (or equivelant) I don't want to be hurting folks with it.

Webby we'll have a look... to be honest I'd prefer if people didn't have to switch over to pistols when getting close, it looks very wrong.

What weight bbs are you using?

True that chap, I'll use the bayonet if it gets too close :)

Same ones as the ones you had off me. We can have a dabble with it on saturday.

i can bring one as well,if you have a combro and still have the instructions then you can set it to pellet weight to get jouls readings for the 8mm bb's.ive lost my instructions though and cant remember how of the top of my head.

m1a1 Thompson,sten mk2,mp40,stg44,sterling,mk2 bren gun,lee Enfield no4 mk1,Mauser Kar98, Walther ppk,smith and Weston m10 and Mauser m712
Give me a big enough hammer and a place to stand and I could fix the world.
i'll kill a man in a fair fight or if i think he's going to start a fair fight or over a woman or.......

I've done a quick ref chart for what 350fps/0.2g is for other weights.

I could bring mine too, if I can manage to get some batteries for it.

Have just lost half a pint of blood, my eyesight looking for little springs and five hours of my life changing the spring in my Thompson which is now firing between 341.6 and 348.9 (eek) with Madbull 0.2g according to my chrono

I have a small skewer hidden in the collar of my jumping jacket, and a razorblade in my gaiter, as well as my knife.

Dadio, since you're staying over the Saturday night it might be best if we use yours as the main one as we can discuss during the social.

However if all the others could bring theirs as well then we should be covered.

Thanks!!!
