I've read your posts thoroughly. there's no reason to look down on somebody who doesn't have a small placard under their name/didn't have access to the internet 10 years ago, or assume that they are 14.
the weight of a BB is next to irrelevant in a p*. given the correct settings, air rig and a proper length barrel, the fps of a .2 and a .66 will be the same.
similar to overvoluming a short barrelled AEG, there are a few people who do it so that they chrono at the field limit (usually indoors, so 350 or so) with .2g, but they use .28/.30+, and the end result is that the heavier round will still have a similar fps to the .2
given that a p* effectively has unlimited volume (unlike an aeg), you're simply not setting it correctly, or your barrel isn't long enough to allow enough gas expansion to accelerate the round properly.
and of course .12 won't do sh*t. I'm just saying, if you believe that HS5's 700@35 or 1200fps rifles were done with .12g rounds, then it's not nearly as difficult as I think it is because my rifle will do that as well. they're also definitely M4s.
I'd also like to see my rifle gamed over a season or more without maintenance on .28-.32 rounds, because it should have about 250 feet of range (if I did my r-hop install correctly this time). unfortunately, it wasn't finished until last month and will likely not be fielded for a long time because a: I'm broke and b: chronic back pain.
edit: also if it takes an m170 to get 460fps, you've got a SIGNIFICANT air leak. that should only take an m130.
