description
This flipbook shows a steel rod shot from my my clear strait through v2 valve with a 4"x40" air chamber at 100 psi and a 240" paintball barrel. It was recorded at 4000 frames per second. The target is a cantaloupe. It was mainly recorded to verify the velocity readings given by the Chrony, but I figured I might as well put a decent target in there to make it more interesting. The Crony reported 380.4 fps for this shot.
reference objects
There is a yard stick laying behind the Chrony with marks every foot that may or may not be visible in the video.
