What do you need help with? I see nothing wrong with those ranges, but it would be nice if you told us what springs you're using.

Have you added springs or increased plunger seal? If not that may be your problem.

[newnerfmodder]

Oh right now im using a BBB spring, NF spring, and a black Longshot spring and i have more springs here and im getting pics in a min.

[Chris is cool]

An LS and NF spring is enough. Anything more than that will damage your gun beyond repair over time. Its not worth the risk or the sore arm you'll get from priming it.

Just use the BBB spring and LS spring. Have you improved the plunger seal by e-tape, plunger head replacement, or extra o-ring?

You need to lubricate the o-ring, spring and plunger tube. This drastically increases ranges. Use silicone lubricant.

Way to go. You found the fatal flaw with range tests on the internet. You wont get 100 feet out of it, but then again, who cares? Can you consistently peg a tin can from about 40-50 feet away? Thats about all the range you will need anyway.

But the double O-ring and a 3b and silver LS spring should bump you up to about 80 feet. The problem with Ice's design is that it creates about 5 inches of dead space. Cut the hell out of it and coupler straight to the plunger tube. Better ranges, shoots just as hard, and you use less CPVC

ADD A STINKING +BOW SPRING!!! Sheesh, if there's no boltsled to break, why not use super powerful springs? I'm getting ~110 ft flat with mine.

[newnerfmodder]

Wow I just range tested again now im getting 30 ft anyone want to say anything?

Lubricate and use a better fit for your darts. Really. I have an LS+NF spring longshot that I singled and it got 60ft ranges. Now I chopped it down so all it is is the one small section of cpvc, and I'm breaking through vinyl tarps. Not too hard if you don't give a shit about looks.

I use just a second-gen BBB and Mine gets 70. I didn't do it quite ice's way. I made mine based on Fresh's, a variation of ice's that pulls out more power. Make the seal as airtight and as slide-able as possible and use a lot of lube.
