Hey guys, I would like to start off by letting you know what gun I'm using, and then get to the question. I am using the Well MB04, everything is stock except the following.
Upgrade:
Full metal trigger box
Upgrade spring I got from hit guns, says it shoots between 500-550 fps

Mods:
.... Full length barrel spacer and that is it lol

I am also using milsim max .32 bbs.

Now my question is, what should I do to get my range up to 300ft while maintaining/gaining accuracy?

I'm currently working on getting the r-hop patch and I am also interested in the LRB mod. Do the screws at the end of the barrel creating the LRB work good? And which way does the bend go for the LRB, up or down?

I am a little tight on money at the moment. Sooo what other recommendations do y'all have? What have you found works the best?

Well you need a tightbore barrel. Its non negotiable. If your budgeting i suggest a madbull.

Top dead-centre hop up adjuster,
R-hop,
DIY LRb.

Also, check out the guide to modifications for your kind of gun!

@ king..kranium
What size tight bore barrel if I'm doing the LRB mod because I heard it shouldn't be to small?
@miloxc3
There is one of those? Where at?? Lol

The TDC is a DIY mod, not something you can buy (other than buying the parts to do it). Look in my sig for a link to a guide I made on how to do the TDC mod. I think at one point though Noobie sold it as a kit.

 

[TheHunter]

I was referring to the thread on a guide to do modifications for my gun.
I know how to do the TDC mod( I checked out Milo's sig a few days ago.. Is it really that needed for my type of hop up

 

[Masterjuggler98]

It's not a necessity, but it is nice to have one because it lets you fine tune your hop and it offers the consistency of a fixed hop while still being adjustable. It is also simpler than the standard hop mechanism, so there are less things to go wrong.

 

[TheHunter]

Alright, I will probably do the TDC mod. I just dont know if I like the idea of having a screw sticking out of my barrel.

So does the barrel bend up or down on an LRB?

 

[king..kranium]

Slightly upward.... Ask cheese about it though...

Ok thanks. Maybe he will pop in.

So should I do the LRB on a tight bore 6.03 barrel and r-hop or go all the way and get a pdi hop with an AEG barrel and bucking? Which way will give better results? Or can you combine the LRB mod, r-hop patch with a pdi hop up and AEG barrel?

 

[Masterjuggler98]

You bend the barrel down so the bb can ride aong the top. if it was bent upward it would completely screw with the hopup. There is an LRB guide that you should check out in the general sniper talk category I think. It will tell you most of what you need to know.

I can't say what the best ID is to have have for an LRB but as long as it isn't a bull barrel it should work fine. Bull barrels like to stay bent after a little while. You can use any combonation of hopup parts you want, as long as they don't mess with the front two thirds of the barrel, which is how much of it will bend. R-hop will work best however so the LRB doesn't have as much work to do when stabilizing the bb.

Thanks for the help masterjuggler98!
So do you think with the upgraded spring, r-hop patch, and with a 6.03 tight bore barrel with the LRB, TDC mod, I could reach out to 250+ accurately?

 

[MiloXC3]

For the record, Masterjuggler's TDC method is much better because it has a tighter fix, so read his guide if you haven't already!

And yes, that should easily hit 250ft if it's combined with heavy-enough ammo.

 

[TheHunter]

Sweet!
Thanks for the help

 

[Masterjuggler98]

Tune it right and you should be able to. I use .3s and I hit out to at least that with my r-hop. I am going to do the LRB eventually, I just haven't found the time. As long as you have bbs that are .28g minimum, provided they are high enough quality you should be fine. When you install the r-hop just make sure to read all the installation vids you can before sanding the inside channel, because some people use different techniques. The first r-hop I installed I accidentally sanded at a bit of a diagonal so my bbs curved left.

 

[TheHunter]

Thanks for the tips. And you bet I'm going to be reading every instruction vids I can find.
And one last question... Is milsim max .32g a good brand of bbs?

 

[schultz98]

For a gun shooting 500+ I'd get heavier bb's. My svd is shooting 500 with .25s and my m24 shot 580, both worked best with .40 and .43. I use washed madbulls.

 

[Cheese Man]

If you can, use .88g steel bbs. Really consistent, but some fields have issues with metallic bbs.

 

[Masterjuggler98]

If you get those .888g ball bearings also get a steel barrel. An aluminum or brass barrel will be destroyed otherwise.

 

[TheHunter]

Steel bbs for shooting people with!?!?!? But anyways my field is strictly biodegradable bbs only. And I will probably by some .4s next time. I was just afraid of getting too heavy and losing distance.

What barrel and bucking would y'all recommend for the mb04 and LRB mod?
