I've always heard people saying things about certain guns have longer ranges. Like shockers, cockers and how there range is so much better than a spyder or busmaster.

Can someone please explain to me how a paintball going 300 fps is going to have more range than another paintball going 300 fps coming from a different gun? Leaving out the whole backspin thing from Zbodies and flatlines, how is it possible for these 2 paintballs to have any difference in trajectory?

ya people think they really have longer range but they dont...people always say that closed bolt guns have logner range but in reality it does nothing more than just makes the bolt rest in different places. closed bolt is simply when the bolt closes the feed tube in the resting position and then open is just the opposite where the bolt is rested in the "open" pos. it does nothing really
