Prepressurize the piston, but have the stroke locked by a latch. That way, there will be a ton of energy built up, capable of extending the piston in very little time. We, team 1165, have also prototyped a pneumatic shooter, that basically catapults or flings the ball effectively.

When designing this system, make sure your latch is very well-made because there will be a ton of pressure in it, especially at 60PSI working pressure!

Also, beware of hands because this suddenly flings with a ton of force, which has the capability to de-hand you (if that is a word).

I'll try to inquire and post a video of this shooter as soon as we finish the changes to it!
