Re: How much power for a sliptip?

I may be missing the point, but I don't think a slip tip is the determinant of how much rubber you need. I use slip tips on all my guns, but the rubber I use is a function of how heavy the guy is and how thick the shaft is.
Heavier guns can handle more rubber without having a recoil problem. Heavier guns can handle thicker shafts without having a recoil problem.
On a couple of relatively light guns, I use 9/32" shafts and three 9/16" bands. On a couple of heavier guns, I use 5/8" shafts and three 5/8" bands.
On the thinner shafts, I use slip tips made from 5/16" stock. On the thicker shafts, sometimes I use slip tips made from 3/8" stock, although I still prefer to use the slimmer ones.
