well i have seen 2" peices at the pump house and if 1" is 25mm well 2" should be 50mm. Some how that doesnt sound right...

a 60 cm 1" chamber would be big enough for and 80cm 3/4" barrel

80" Squared and 73" Squared respectivly

oh yeah nice drawing of a ball valve lol

Hey mate, thats a good looking design you got there! You can get a bag of 100 marbles from shops like crazy clarks for dollars and cents for 2 bucks a bag. When it comes to ammo, you just can't beat em. I've got about 1200 marbles lying around my shed haha.

what u firing? marbles? ball bearings? what calibre are they?

Mitchza89 · Thu Jul 05, 2007 8:30 pm

Yeah mainly marbles and the occassional fishing sinker mate. The marbles are 16mm and the sinkers I fire are about 14mm or so.

How much more does the sinker kick than the marble?
