Re: Roller Build Help

Maybe switch to a 7.5mm shaft. I was shooting a 55" shaft on my 49" single roller and felt the same way I reduced weight by going to a shorter shaft and it made a big difference. Also what are your bands cut at 300%, 350%? 18" doesn't help unless we know the distance from the anchor point to the shaft fin.

Regarding difficulty loading, using two stages could help. Stages refer to separate hooks to anchor the bands to on the bottom of the gun. I have noodle arms and putting two stages on it helps. Also if you're using it on reefs the ability to step it down to shoot into holes has saved my shaft and landed fish I otherwise would have passed on.
