I have a chrono already but a big concern is when the temperature changes in the winter. Let me understand CO2 better, when it is hot, the gas inside of the tank will expand causing an increase in velocity or increase in pressure. When it is cold, the CO2 will not expand as much compared to summer. The downfall of this will cause a person to shoot more liquid. If it is hot, the spring will compress more and shoot a lot hotter than usual. Is this all correct or am I wrong in my idea? I am very concern with not being able to shoot at an ideal velocity later. I would like to shoot around 260-270 consistently with CO2. Am I hoping for too much now? Taking a coil off the spring seems so drastic. Paying too much for a Reg also seems a a little expensive too. I know that someone mentioned earlier that there is no springs available. Is that still true? I haven't seen anything on the ACI website either. My local paintball shop told me to reverse the striker spring & guide. Will that work or is that BS that the sales clerk told me?
