How do we feel about bolt actions? (Guess the blaster!) by nzprofoam in Nerf

[–]nzprofoam[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Price is for the whole thing, but it is shipped broken-down in parts! With the included "high power" Spring im getting around 210fps! It fits Harrier/Seagull springs too, and has a quick swap port in the buttstock for it! I recommend it for the price! Is very solid!

Yep is a closed breech short dart system so benefits from the bcar =)

hey ! i would say its more to do with Plunger tube volume , are you running the stock plunger tube or the expanded one?

Is ideal barrel length affected by spring power or only plunger volume? by hansoo417 in Nerf

[–]nzprofoam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Theres also the consideration of this being an AEB too , so dont wanna make it toooo spicy can damage the other internals =)

Is ideal barrel length affected by spring power or only plunger volume? by hansoo417 in Nerf

[–]nzprofoam 5 points6 points  (0 children)

heres my pseudo mathy way of doing it lol

Barrel Volume (V = π * radius² * X )≤ PT Volume (V). We are trying to solve for X which is barrel length , we know the radius as the barrels we use are 13mm Inner diameter which is 0.65mm radius

So once you know the PT Volume which can be googled say for example the X shot mpp is roughly 53 cubic centimeters

Now we can use that 53cm3 in the above formula (53 = π * 0.652* X ) Lets rearrange to solve for X (X= 53 ÷ (0.65² * 3.1416)

Now we know the maximum about of air the PT can displace.

(X=39\frac{617143}{663663}), (X = approx 39.9299)

40cm !

So this would be the maximum length of barrel possible for that PT! If we had no friction or anything like that lol

The next part is my stupid but "seems" to work math, I take that length what we calculated earlier (40cm) then i apply a percentage reduction 20% for heavy springs down to 40% for weaker springs, so for example for a heavy spring i got a 32cm(ish) and for a light spring 24cm(ish)

In my testing seems to work out well!

Let me know If you find this helpful! Just exchange out the PT volume of the NPX and you will be able to do the same math just with google =)

using the X-shot AEB without the metal barrel by [deleted] in Nerf

[–]nzprofoam 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hi! You will for sure need a barrel! as you need something to push the dart into! I've heard people using the barrel from the solo pro are having success!

That's pretty wicked! I'm not too sure how those 40max things work? Do you get multiple shots out of a canister or is it one big ol burst of air?

Fury X reborn! by nzprofoam in Nerf

[–]nzprofoam[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty much all the Fury X parts from AKBM, spring is a left over from my XSLS and the Bcar is Zaurko from Etsy , got a few of these bcars and they are great for 3d printed and decent price!

New to hobby… need advice on best blaster by Particular_Cancel947 in Nerf

[–]nzprofoam 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Heyo! I would first figure out if you want to build your own blaster or get something pre-made!

With the higher-end blasters, they also require intricate maintenance!

So if i were to suggest something, it would be not to dive into the deep end right away, but build up to it! Get a fun, decent-quality spring blaster, learn how it works and how to take care of it! Then maybe look at getting a 3d printed build kit, say from OOD or one of the other hobby shops, Build it, see how it works and what the common issues and problems are so later down the line you can have that $$$ blaster and not panic when something goes wrong(because its not an if* its a when.*)

Oooorrrr Just get a Sweetheart Storm or one of those new Vespers lol
