Re: Piston Shooter?

You're thinking of one that compresses the air behind the ball and doesn't actually contact the ball at all, right?

Our team considered it; as many have said on a few other threads, loading is a little more complex than for other systems, and with the likelihood of there always being horrible inconsistent balls, it doesn't seem like an effective system for any large amount of accuracy. We decided not to test it at all, so if someone with some evidence would like to correct me, feel free to do so.
