None, I'd get an SSG10 or T11

No.

I would get AST01 only because my field isn't demanding of extreme/long range shots. Otherwise i would get a cyma/snow wolf m24 over VSR because i like the spring tensioned mag. Plus point with cyma m24 for its large volume.
I am not asking what is better. I just want to inderstand which striker people prefer, cause i am mostly see short AS02 strikers."is it as good as a VSR?"

You see mostly 02s because it's the least retarded design Ares did.I am not asking what is better. I just want to inderstand which striker people prefer, cause i am mostly see short AS02 strikers.
They've been in the "industry" for God knows how long and the first thing they did? An awfully undervolumed gun (AS-01)
Their latest release? Another awfully undervolumed gun (AST-01)
At least on the 02 you don't have to replace the whole front end or buy a stupid expensive cylinder kit to fix the volume ratio.
Cylinders are not very expensive, pricing is about to same to others.You see mostly 02s because it's the least retarded design Ares did.

EdGi NEMO is not exactly cheap at €350+ and it's the only one worth buying (Ares makes a knock-off that is so shit they often forget to weld the bottom).Cylinders are not very expensive, pricing is about to same to others.
The other cylinders don't solve the volume issue.

Personally got a AS02... frankenstein'd. Stock from an 01, mlok handguard of an 02, barrel of an 02, I think the receiver is an 01...
The AS01 I had ended up having an improperly milled outer barrel. The outer barrel was tapered correctly, however the inside was milled 5° off axis. It worked semi-decently if you didn't run it with barrel spacers, but with barrel spacers you would see a bend in the inner barrel.
That's how I ended up with a frankenstein two-toned AS02. I bought a black AS01, and a FDE AS02.

As-02 is the least terrible, outside of Hpa they just can't reach the same max potential as other rifles when you can use anything over 1j.
If they started to make a pre hpa'd striker now that would get some interest.
I have run an AS03 in a game previously but it wasn't suitable for serious long term use.

There is striker player on my field with 600 fps striker, 3.3 Joules. What you mean by they cant reach same potential, they actually can.As-02 is the least terrible, outside of Hpa they just can't reach the same max potential as other rifles when you can use anything over 1j.

About pre hpa, they have CO2 bolts and CO2 mag kits, they are preaty good for some countries with lower limits.
It seems like you've already set your mind and are not interested in anything we have to offer, so I see further posts pointless.
Skara put his best into a Striker for like a year and a half or more, and never had good results. He ended up getting a T11 and in it's stock form, I believe he said it was better than a Striker with lots of expensive parts.
If you plan to go HPA, I still don't see the reason one would go Striker, as everything would cost exactly as much, if not more for it.
If you really want the Striker, get it, but don't say that we didn't warn you.

Have you considered an EV01? It's basically a cheaper striker with a cool body kit off Evike.
Just to let you know as it's a mistake a lot of fresh players make, Joule's aren't everything.There is striker player on my field with 600 fps striker, 3.3 Joules. What you mean by they cant reach same potential, they actually can.

A well built 2j gun will outperform a bad 3j. Joule's are output energy but have nothing to do with accuracy and have only a small say in effective range. (Look at paintball Vs Airsoft, a 1j Airsoft will beat a 10j-13j paintball gun in range and accuracy easily)
Also 3j must be Hpa as a spring 3j setup on a striker would have a super tough spring if even possible due to the short pull design. Don't want to go into the whole theoretical design as siliconesword said you seem set on a striker.
Just honestly don't be surprised if you end up back on the forum asking why the rifle isn't consistent or performing as the other player lead you to believe it would.
I actually made this topic to understand which strikers people prefer, not for choosing one actuallyIt seems like you've already set your mind and are not interested in anything we have to offer, so I see further posts pointless.

Ofc not everything, however almost all snipers have shitty internals, so ofc other parts need to be good as well, but fps is very important for effective range and fps affect joules. And no, 600 fps striker is not hpa one, it is spring one, with Amoeba SP600 spring. Idk actually who told you that it will be super tough, it is absolutelly ok, have you ever tried one?Just to let you know as it's a mistake a lot of fresh players make, Joule's aren't everything.

You asked for help/opinions we gave them and you didn't like them.
We aren't you parents go and buy whatever Airsoft replica you want like an adult, if you were really interested in what we thought you would have searched the forums for previous posts/builds of strikers and would already know the answer to your poll.
And yes I have used a striker as I mentioned in my first post.
Edit: you have also gone from a l96 to Hpa SVD to striker post's in 14 days, which says you aren't really sure on how the platforms work and have done 0 research into it yet your arguing about it.

Fps indeed would affect effective range, but i would put fps at the last position. I would say bucking and barrel are the first one to affect range. I once bought walmart spring bb gun and mod it to hell for fun, and i reach 250ish fps with 0,2bb yet i managed to hit 50m reliably compared to my standard kjw kp06 that hardly reach 40m with 360fps....fps is very important for effective range...
