Raymond Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 I didn't even know anyone made grippers with springs like that thing. I could make a catapult with a spring like that and launch a cat to the next suburb. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be careful you don’t grind some of your teeth off with that! I decided to look up some ratings data to put that in perspective. According to cannon power works the average 3 rates at a 149 and the average 4 rates at a 214 for a 65 pound difference. This is 71 pounds heavier than the average 4. That means that in terms of raw numbers this is farther away from a 4 than a 4 is from a 3. Absolute insanity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far the best I've ever managed on a gripper is 8-9 on the light spring for the Robert Baraban gripper so the kind of strength displayed there might as well be the freaking moon. I'll just be happy if I can eventually cert on the CoC 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tougher the gripper, the heavier each pound of its load. I already wrote once that holding a bullet for about 30 seconds with CoC4 of 205-207 pounds, I could not perform a hold with 242.5-244.5 pounds BB Pro , on the first attempt... And it took me half a year to get a good hold ... But everything is real. Who goes to his goals - achieves them! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also really need to start working on getting my wrist stronger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
