Funny thing is, there's hardly any advantage in having a gun shoot 350FPS.

At a range of 75 feet, a gun shooting a 0.2gBB at 350FPS will reach it's target ~0.09 seconds faster than a one shooting at 280FPS.

I'm probably being very generous for using a range of 75 feet, in which case even shorter engagement distance basically makes the advantage of higher FPS negligible, if isn't already.
