Brian, while I deeply respect the time and effort you put into producing that spring chart, I cannot help but feel the results are inaccurately high due to the bearing spring guide and piston head, tightbore barrel, and other upgrades over stock parts that will serve to preload the spring and improve efficiency. For example, the Prometheus MS110SP ought to clock in at 363 fps according to a straight conversion from 110 m/s. However the chart shows it chronoed 386 fps, some 23 fps over what is normally expected. Why not perform these tests on a stock gun? Wouldn't it make for a more accurate representation of spring velocities?
