Doesn't hurt more, shoots a bit faster (10 fps or so) but so turn down your velocity a bit when you get it.

Why dont you guys chip in for a chronograph? That way you can all play safely under 300 fps.

Nitro and CO2 work exactly the same. If you shoot at 300fps or below, you wont feel a difference at all. Yes, nitro is slightly better for your gun because it is "cleaner" than CO2.

Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good.

How do you figure? At 70 degrees, a full CO2 tank puts out about 850 psi..How much does a High output Nitro tank put out? Around 850 psi...300 fps is still 300 fps..

Velocity is what makes it shoot fast or slow. Air just powers the gun, you should make sure you are under 300 or yes the paintballs can hurt and draw blood (it happened to me).

dude It takes the velocity bolt as in as little as possible on an A-5 to draw blood on me but anyways If you get shot with it like just having your skin hit by pure CO2 then HPA does hurt more or at least to me it does

paintballs coming out of a hpa gun dont seem to whiz by like co2, they seem to be thrown by you. for example hpa is like a pither throwing a baseball. while co2 is like a batting machine shooting it whith lots of force.

this is all in your mind, due to the laws of physics if your velocity is the same if cant hurt more, as long as the size of the paintballs is the same (like huge size differences) they are going to have the same momentum and feel the same
