Looking to boost my rifle's fps up a bit, seeing as I want to join the big boy's club.


Been using a sp130 spring from laylax for awhile now, putting me out at about 400 fps. I am looking to get an extra boost for some increased range, as 400 fps can only get you so far.

Now the regulations at my field are max of 500 fps for bolt actions. I am looking for anything close to 500 fps. I have been eying this spring: http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products_id=6655

Airsoft gi states it will roll in at about 510 fps, but they said the sp130 spring from laylax would put me at about 430 fps, when indeed, it was max of 400 fps. So just asking if any of you have any experience with this spring, and have an estimate of what fps output it will give me. I have a feeling it will be about 30 fps less than what they state based on the sp130's results, but cannot be sure of this. Also, if you have any other recommendations within the STATES I am all ears. I have been searching for a PDI but they seem to be hiding now adays. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks fellas.

EDIT: I fail, I found some PDI springs on atlanta. ::)

Anyone have any experience with this particular spring or with one that will put me in the 475-490 range?

Just cut it.
I don't have a chrono and need to be prepared for game day. I would like to not have to worry about that. But its an option and will do so if necessary.

And hidden, the internals are all laylax with an HP chamber. The cylinder itself is still stock though.

Yep I do, tested a crap load of them including the SS models. That SPR250 will get you to 470 with a .32 bb. With a .28 it should get you right where you want. My test rifle was a fully hopped up VSR all PDI.
If its 470 with a .32 than it will not be field legal. The limit is 500 fps, but we chrono with .2 gram bbs.

Fuzzywolly... Are you the youtuber Fuzzywolly?
Sorry to disrupt the conversation like that, just curious.
Yes I am. Don't really make any new videos at moment, but plan on getting it going again in the future.

And thanks for the list Tonne, even though this was a good three years ago ;) Either way, good list to have rolling around the boards.
