Band Length & Spear Charts

Select your muzzle type, then find your barrel length to get the correct band length and spear size for your MAKO aluminum or carbon gun.

Easier Loading Add 2" to the recommended band length for less power and easier loading.
More Power Subtract 1"–2" from the recommended band length for more power and harder loading.
14.5mm vs. 16mm Approximately equal power. The 14.5mm Small ID tubing is slightly easier to load.
Warning Do not overpower your spear. Too much power can cause the spear to bend and lose accuracy.
Band type: 14.5mm Small ID (9/16") or 16mm Standard ID (5/8"). We recommend 14.5mm Small ID because it offers the best power-to-accuracy ratio.

    So far good

    Posted by Jc on Apr 22nd 2023

    Have rigged them up, seem good, good stretch, made them 3 inches longer than the 3.8% calculation as would be pretty stout to pull back and better a little length to trim than toos short. Will update after use.
