Which brings up 'joule creep' and a couple of other interesting airsoft phenomenon.
If you are seeing improved range, you are actually imparting more energy by moving up to a heavier BB. There are a couple of factors that can change the energy output between different weights, and at different distances. Heavier BB's also maintain their energy longer, which is one reason why they go farther. So really Alien_Hunter, you're doing the very opposite of what you're intending.
