kranky 507 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Latex bands aren't usually as fast as Theraband but they shoot a lot smoother and are very accurate. Steel balls zip out of them and hex nuts work well too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B.P.R 2,798 Posted May 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 impressed with the 040 latex.... lasted a lot longer than the theraband and shoots better too.... think im done with the theraband.... dare to be different Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kranky 507 Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 What speed are you getting out of each? Whilst latex is smoother and quieter to shoot than TB it doesn't usually get as much speed and works best with heavier ammo. I shoot 9mm steel out of my latex bands and get kills with head shots but if I want power I have to shoot a heavy lead ball or big calibre conical and then I loose the flat trajectory.
