Re: Hop rubbers
^^ He is right,
Not sure if they are actually the softest and hardest you can get. But that is the hardness they refer to. For higher FPS guns you want a harder rubber

Re: Hop rubbers
some people just get the hard rubber so it lasts longer ,i also heard somewere that softer rubbers give better air seal
but it all counts on the fps of the gun

Re: Hop rubbers
Hard compound hop rubbers are normally used in Hi-power guns but there are times when the higher compound is useful at lower levels.
If you have a very Hi rate of fire some buckings dont reform fast enough between each BB to put the correct level of spin on the BB. Harder buckings deform less and bounce back quicker.
Also some very soft compounds work better with Heavy BB's purely down to the design of the Hop unit being able to place a large wide contact patch on the BB as it passes by.
But as a general rule of thumb soft in any thing under 350fps Hard over 350fps. :D
