Have you tried the GZK's? I've only shot the medium but they are supposed to have a heavier one. The stuff is quick! Outlasts the heck of latex. Im only on my second bandset. The first ones I shot every day for a month. I threatened to change them several times just out of pitty!lol!! It out lasts anything I've shot including linitex. Imo

I picked up a roll of the SimpleShot .040 latex when Nathan was clearing it out. It's the stuff that had light spots on it, hence slightly defective, but I haven't noticed any problems with it. I've only cut a couple bandsets out of it. Interested in the rest of the roll? I like lighter rubber myself-I'm cross dominant, so I shoot left handed. I could measure out how much is left tonight.
I ask what size ammo you shoot because I found .040 1/2" × 7/16" tapers to throw 10mm steel faster than just about anything else.
And .040 is the best IMO for people woth short draws. I have worked my normal draw out to about 36" but two years ago it was not even 30". .040 is so tough and snappy you could exceed the 5x elongation "rule" and still get plenty shots per band.
You like the .72? You'll really like the 1 mm. It shoots the same speed as the .04. I dont have a chronny, just going by Big Dan Ambrosias's YouTube video. It gives me enough pull for a decent release. Once you get used to the 72 try some of the thicker stuff. Oh yeah... Put the date on those bands because by the time you wear them out you'll forget how long it's been. I can never keep track of my number of shots.lol. Enjoy buddy!!

Im not sure Bruce. Pm the Turk and see if it's too pricey pm me your address and I'll send you some. You need to experience this stuff. Especially if you are used to frequently replacing bands.
