From my experiences with springs, that would seem to be the case, although there are some situations that would make the resulting velocity to be different from what's calculated or what my chart says.

Some things that will affect variances in velocities:
- Inner barrel length
- Inner barrel bore
- What spring guide is used
- What piston head is used
- What BBs are used
- What gun platform are you using? AUG, P90, H&K, Armalite, etc? Some guns (like the P90) have a much better gearbox to feeding/hop up chamber to inner barrel connection and experience less air seal losses than other platforms. This is a big reason why most inquiries I get are why a user's velocities do not seem to be as high as in my chart.
