Re: Best Way to Shoot the Balls??

mm...no matter what the design i think the ball will need to have spin on it. if not, the ball may vibrate to a stall in a barrel. its a lot easier to get a metal bullet to slide through a gun, than a rubber ball. spin should keep the ball more stable and flying straighter.
