bar-10 with tk twist?

So, if I want to get a twist barrel for my bar-10g, I'd want a 430mm barrel (they don't make the 303, so supposedly the 430 goes a little into the suppressor) downgrade to a 100sp spring, probably get a better bucking and do the teflon mods etc? How would this compare to the 500fps setup?

That type of barrel's main performance characteristic degrades when going above 330fps.

I meant a 500fps setup like laylax edgi modded the heck out. I know it won't be the same, but I'm guessing that it'd be reasonably close except the fps. Maybe 70-80%? The 100sp is 330fps with .2's

Wasn't aware they made a 100SP spring for bolt action rifles.

It'll go far... but good luck having people feel the hits at that distance.

the TK barrel is no worse than your typical 6.03 tightbore at velocities >400 FPS. But why would you spend nearly double the money for the TK twist when you can get EDGI barrels that work regardless of velocity

Because, from what I understand, to get comparable performance, you'd need to spend alot more.. The tk barrel for a bar-10 is like 55$, and 16$ for a lower spring. To get comparable accuracy/range, (I'm guessing) you'd need to spend 300+.

Anyways, edgi barrels are like 60$ here.

honestly i dont see the point. If you upgrade your gun to shoot at higher velocities with a good tightbore, you will get farther range with it than with the TK Twist.

The twist only add additional accuracy (to an extent). If the two barrels are comparable in accuracy, why not upgrade the power of your gun and get the added bonus of more range?

Sniper's are about both range AND accuracy. The TK Twist only gives you one.

I beg to differ, my Masada shoots about 310 has a TK twist and a V notch hopup rubber and its shoots farther than my 390 FPS AKs 74U

Things with a BASR don't work exactly like they do with an AEG...

The extra FPS in the sniper rifle is so that people FEEL their single hit over distance rather than multiple small hits.

I've gone a season using a 310 FPS VSR-10... I had ALOT of hits that people simply didn't feel.. and it gets VERY frustrating.

doesn't the masada have a longer inner barrel than the 74u?

also, does the 74u have the vnotch rubber?

If he uses 0.30g BBs, there wil be a decent chance anyone within 200ft will feel it.

but if he uses a TK twist and 330fps spring, will he even be able to accurately put BBs out to that range?

... Firing a BB at someone over a long distance with it traveling at 250~ FPS at the muzzle?

I don't know about your targets... but the people I shoot at would be able to move out of the way of that.
