![]() What do these differences give in performance gains? NOTE: this means the bucking now only has one job to do – providing the nozzle air seal. This is a piece of silicone which is exactly the same size, shape and thickness of the window / barrel – this completely fills the window making the barrel totally sealed. The second major difference is the Rhop ‘Patch’ (shown in blue). The bucking is for the most part identical to a conventional bucking, the only major difference being that the conventional hop-up mound does not exist, or is removed – this is known as a ‘straight’ bucking. The first major difference is the length of the hop window, depending on application it can be upto twice as long, normally it is 2 or 3mm longer. NOTE: the bucking is responsible for providing the nozzle air seal AND the friction surface for backspin (hop). The areas of contact are shown in red, these being the bucking mound and the bottom centre of the barrel. When we apply more or less hop we are basically pushing the nub further into the bucking, which in turn pushes the mound further into the barrel, which in turn applies more pressure – and therefore more friction to the BB, resulting in more backspin to increase the flight distance of our BB. Here we can see the same conventional setup with the ‘nub’ added (in green). We can see the barrel cross section showing a conventional ‘hop window’, and we can see a conventional bucking (in purple) and its hop-up ‘mound’ as viewed if looking through the barrel. Scroll to the bottom of the page for a TL:DR!įirstly here is a conventional barrel, bucking & nub Rhop has some obvious differences to a conventional hop setup which are shown below. Rhop is a term used to describe a unique bucking & nub combination which give significant range and accuracy gains. ![]() Rhop has many benefits, but firstly what is ‘R’ hop? ![]()
