The problem with the Ares, if you watch the video, a magazine that is not full, screws up the bb chambering completely. Even if you have 5 bbs in your magazine, you should be able to still chamber all 5 shots without tipping your barrel to the ground for each re-cock in the MS338 or MS700.

I have a VFC ASW338LM and if I put 30 bbs in the magazine instead of the 40 maximum rounds, I can chamber them all with the rifle on the ground. With the Ares, I would have to pick it up and point the muzzle to the ground before I can chamber a bb after each shot.

You don't see this as being a problem????
Yes I agree it would be a problem for most but seen as though I never short load my mags (except in my GBB rifles) I wont mean much to me.

I will test how short you can load them though. If every bb literally has to be in the mag or could it be 1 or 2 or 5 short would it still work?
