Hello again! Anyway, I'm looking into doing a really good brass-breeched, super-powered longshot that gets about 80 feet flat. I am kind of new to advanced modding so I was wondering EXACTLY what spring I should buy for this range and what reinforcement (if any) do I need to do to the plunger head besides the brass and hotglue in the front of the plunger tube in the black piece. If anyone who knows springs from McMaster-Carr really well (because thats who im going to buy from), please contact me with your expert advise! Thanks again!

I'm no expert, but I believe a k18 or a k11 might do the trick, cut down of course. Again, I am just speaking from experience with similar blasters, and have not actually done this to a longshot.

Thanks for the input but I was thinking something like a k-25 or k-26.

If you were already thinking something, then what was the point of this thread?

Stop making advice threads guys.
