I'm not trying to justify people shooting over 300, I'm just saying that a lot of you are overexaggerating about the dangers of shooting over 300. I'm completely fine with 300 - plenty of range, and you lose accuracy by shooting any harder than that.

that is completely possible. there are a lot of factors that come in to it though, likely? probably not. possible? yes.

not everyone shoots an Ion, high velocity =/= blown solenoid

companies dont govern markers because it would reduce the about of tinkering you could do. people like playing with settings. if a company said "you cant adjust youe dwell to more than 5ms" to prevent people from shooting hot, you would be pissed. theyre not going to lock in settings, and non-adjustable regs are no fun.
