Should put you around 300-320fps? I think?

Wow! Mechbox.com is a great site. Thanks.

Yep it's a limit not a goal my friend.

Sure the limit is 350, but I'd aim stock TM (280-300)

Best of luck.

If I go with a lower fps spring, should I upgrade the barrel and hop up?
My ultimate goal is accuracy over anything else. I am not likely to use the gun in auto very often. I tend to be more conservative so, I would like the most accuracy possible.

accuracy upgrade your gun to shoot 330 and throw a tk twist barrel and some fancy hop up in there

You don't need "accuracy" upgrades if you're playing CQB. Sure I could see it for a larger outdoor field where you're pretty much firing at your maximum effective range when you're engaging however in CQB you're like 10' away from your target. A 1/2 inch grouping better at your maximum effective range translates to nothing when you're firing at CQB distances.

If it's for indoor and outdoor I'd really suggest getting an indoor gun and an outdoor gun. Since that means you open up your mechbox less AND have a smaller chance of fucking something up when you're switching springs.

also keep 1 thing in mind. high FPS != great gun. reliability beats all.

I assume that the '!' in front of the '=' stands for "doesn't necessarily" right?

It should be "High FPS =/= Great Gun". Meaning it doesn't.
