No in-depth analysis. 0 to shooting speed is about one second. Recovery time between shots is about 300ms, accurate to within .2% speed (plenty close for what it's being used for). Barring human error, we can hit around 95% accuracy just from tests in the shop. On the field we're closer to 80 or 85% because of human error/flywheel wear and tear.
