Is not the 2300s a Crosman Custom Shop creation?.... I understand Crosman won't sell parts if you're not a CCS Customer....Bob
I get it now. At this setting, what will happen is as I shoot, the gun cools off but velocity remains mostly unaffected. So at 90*F I can either shoot as fast as I want or as slow as I want and not have any noticeable changed in poi. If I shoot fast, then I will just get less shots. If I shoot other guns while shooting the 1740, and let it warm up periodically, I'll just get more shots
So I began grinding, and I suddenly became concerned about hammer bounce. Since I'm grinding away at the surface contacts between hammer and tube, I worried about reducing friction which would result in more hammer bounce. I did a lot of calculations, and became even more worried as the amplitude of the hammer oscillation decays at an exponential rate that is proportional to the negative of the friction coefficient divided by the square root of hammer mass. So, for example, if I half both the hammer mass and half the friction coefficient, then the rate decreases by a factor of 1.4, which results in more amplitude due to the negative exponential. This results in stronger rebounds when the hammer bounces. However, since most of the friction is between the bottom of the hammer and the tube, there will not be much friction loss if I don't grind away the bottom, which I shouldn't do anyways or else the hammer will be loose in the tube.also, since I'm tuning the pistol to just a hair over partial valve lock, and due to the approximation I arrived at that the first rebound has roughly 80% the momentum as the initial strike, the first rebound should see almost if not full valve lock. A true test of this would be to install an HDD and observe no increase in shot count. But I trust my calculations enough to where I can't justify the cost of the HDD to try it out.with a hammer mass at 1oz, should see valve lock at 50*F with the rva turned all the way out. I should be able to dial in enough adjustment to tune to the magical setting at any temp from 50-100 degrees.
