Best bands to buy for three guns?

I need to repower three guns and I think I used mako rubber last time but not sure. Small Diameter and really stretchy.
2 guns with 130mm band stretch and a riffe 110.
What do you guys suggest?

What rubber does Phil Use on his blue water guns?

Thanks

Re: Best bands to buy for three guns?

I like to use small ID 14mm bands. They stretch a lot more than the standard 16mm bands. You can get that stuff at spearamerica as well as benthicoceansports. If you want a larger inner diameter, the stuff 16mm green stuff from neptonics is really good as well. You get a lot of stretch and it's much easier to load.
I personally use the small ID stuff on my longer guns and the green stuff on my shorter guns.

We have the small internal diameter latex from Primeline.

Re: Best bands to buy for three guns?

Go with the Small ID Primeline. It's worth it to figure out how to rig up the wishbones even though it is slightly more of a pain with the smaller hole. Actually a noticeable difference, you can tell when you load at full 350% stretch.
