G&G GR16 Hop up mods
« on: May 09, 2012, 10:34:57 AM »
So starting with a stock one piece G&G GR16 hop up, how would I be able to improve performance working with it from the ground up? I also have a mad bull 6.03 tight bore inner barrel.

if you are looking to go distance just get a good hop up bucking. G&G hop up bucking are great and so in the hop up unit.  I would recommend just installing it perfectly, and you should be great

Will do. I tried using the hop up bucking that came with the tight bore but it wouldn't fit in the hop up unit without bunching up, I just switched back to the G&G hop up and it worked it out.

a bucking won't help with range as much as it will groupings. For pretty good range and accuracy:
-quality barrel (your madbull is fine)
-bucking to match your fps
-custom nub, or r-hop, of flat hop mod. Whatever you want to do
-complete seal for leaks
-polish inner barrel
-stabilize inner barrel
-shim hop up arm if needed
-use heavier bb's (.28+)

Most people think "Oh i want super range and accuracy, so i will buy a 550mm 6.01 tbb," which is an awful idea. You need to make sure your cylinder and barrel volume match. On top of that, 6.03's are more accurate past 100 feet compared to 6.01's. You can get good results from stock parts and small tweaks.

I use the stock hop up and bucking from my G&G M16 and just replaced the inner barrel with a Madbull 6.03 and the range I get is pretty damn good in my opinion. I use .28's and they fly straight and I get a great grouping. Unfortunately I don't know the exact destance the BB travels but I know it's well over 175 ft.
