I do like the system theyve got at siege with multiple bb weights readily available
Most I've been able to creep an AEG is about .1J and that's even hard to confirm because I don't have a scale that can weigh bbs down the 100th of a gram. You could argue that amount of variance can occur in the other variables caused by the gun such as a tiny leak or failure of the nozzle to completely seal against the bucking lips, the sphericalness of the bb itself, weight variance of the bbs. Research into the ammo I was shooting was that the .32s I was shooting actually weighed closer to .31, so my higher fps reading could have been a result of lighter than expected ammo, thus throwing off my J numbers. But long story short, it's hard to get an AEG to creep significantly that it would be noticeable in range or precision. 10-20fps more than expected is not going to win you a game.

Hell what did the 400 vs 500 fps test yield in overall range difference? like 30 feet or something not that substantial.
