Greetings,
OK,
We need two combatants:
One with the smoke, mirrors and Fairey Dust.:eyes:
One armed with a physics degree.:cool:
Go for it!!

Alright, I've got smoke and mirros and pixie dust under control

"Well, the timmy obviously shoots farther for a number of reasons. Foremost of these being Low Pressure, since force is exerted on the ball slowly, it accelerates slowly, and by the same token decelerates slowly. It has much more range because of this. Since an angel is the exact opposite (high pressure, lower dwell) the ball gets up to speed very very fast, and also loses speed very very fast. The angels curved trajectory is really good for dropping paintballs behind bunkers because it falls short so quick, that's why it's a good front persons marker."

Ok, so who wants to be physics major?

well, 350psi or something, so compared to a shocker, timmy, matrix or bushy or impy, yeah they are. But really, 350 is still pretty low, definately as low as you really need to go to shoot brittle paint.
