Has anyone here used it for Stock Darts?

Ask NerfCrazy (he might be gone). Why can't you use stephans?
Because I have upwards of 500 stock darts, I rarely nerf with more than 4 other people, my attempts at stefans were pitiful, and all of my guns are modified to use stock darts.
I usually modify my guns in two different ways - Short 17/32" brass barrels for taggers, or Long 9/16" brass barrels for Streamlines. I have run out of brass, and my financial situation has become so pitiful that I can't afford to blow so much money on more brass, so I am looking at Petg, with is cheaper and looks much easier to work with.
If Petg can replace my 17/32" or 9/16" brass, it will save me money and allow me to continue my nerfing projects, which are all currently at a stand-still because I have no barrel-material.
So basically I need to know how OMC's Petg compares to 9/16" brass...

I have several guns with just a petg barrel addition (OMC's) and ar removed and they function quite well.
edit: I also do not have/use stefans

This all refers to barrel material for high-powered guns. PETG might work well with less powerful springers.

Honestly I don't find that OMC's petg works well with CDTS. It's way too loose. Keep in mind I have the medium walled stuff. The thick walled stuff is too tight. 17/32" brass works the best for stock darts in my opinion. I've been using this system for over a year now and I have not found any system that gets better ranges. Aluminum works pretty well, but that can be quite expensive. Although so is brass.

I have the think-walled petg, and it isn't too tight at all. It could even be a bit tighter.

Using Stock Darts? This stuff is starting to sound comparable with 9/16" brass, which would be perfect.

Yes. Stock darts work pretty well, in my opinion. Like I said, it could be tighter, but it still works fine for me.

Chances are thick wall will work. Ryan McNumbers is right that thick wall is a little tight, but I prefer that to too loose.
PM me about it.
