Well step one is to actually chrono your gun on the weight of ammo you'll be USING
If you cut a coil off your M130 and get your gun down to 450fps on .20s, it's within field limits, that's fine. But you could very well be shooting MUCH hotter than that on .36s or .43s, which puts people at greater risk of injury.

It doesn't matter what your rifle shoots on .20s, as long as it's under the field limits when they chrono you.
What matters is if you'll be breaking that limit when you use heavier BBs.

Just because your field runs chrono like a bunch of retards, it doesn't mean you should throw caution to the wind.

Find out what you need to do to get your gun shooting under 1.87j on the weight of ammo you'll be using, THEN worry about what it shoots on .20s, because chances are it's going to be quite a bit lower anyway.

If your gun shoots 1.3j on .20s and 1.8j on .43s, then that's just how it is.
