Ramping is when you achieve a set rate of fire, which will then "ramp" your rate of fire to a higher speed.
Basically if you fire faster than a set rate (say 5 balls per second) then the mechanism will switch to fully automatic and "ramp" up the rate of fire to something higher (say 10 balls per second)
Yes.
PSP stands for Paintball Sports Promotions. It is professional paintball league. PSP Ramping is the type of firing mode they use in that league. When a marker is in PSP Ramping mode it means the first three shots you fire (if they are within 1 sec of each other) will be semi-automatic. After the first three shots are fired, and you keep pulling the trigger atleast once every 1 sec, the gun will then add shots and fire 3 shots per trigger pull. PSP Ramping mode is capped at 13.33 Balls Per Second.
Any paintball gun that will not fire simply from hitting the butt of the tank, is not over the FPS limit, and will only fire one shot per trigger, or has the correct ramping setup for the tournament.
It is another name for Millennium Mode which is a "ramping" mode that is shoot a maximum of 15 bps after you have achieved 7.5 bps manually.
It is a ramping mode that, as a minimum trigger pull speed is achieved, the marker rolls over into fully automatic for as long as minimum bps is kept.
NPPL mode is the paintball electric board setting which is allowed in NPPL tournaments. It is semi automatic (non ramping or full auto) which is capped (restricted) to 15 balls per second. This means that even if you are pulling the trigger 20 times a second, only 15 balls will shoot.
The best gun is the Proto Matrix Rail '08. The ramping modes are great for speed ball. The light mobility allows you to speed to the top bunkers. The electronic gun is designed to fit many game types. Speedball mainly.
It is a mode on some paintball guns, where you must manually pull it it reaches 7.5 bps, and from there the ramp will start. It is capped at 15 bps.
Ramping up
ramp-up-1
NXL mode on paintball markers is the mode used by the National X-ball League. When in NXL mode the marker fires semi automatic for the first 3 trigger pulls, after that the gun will fire Full-Automatic if the trigger is held. NXL is capped at 15 Balls Per Second.
Ramping mode is where you have to pull a trigger at a certain speed E.G. 5bps and it will boost it up to something like 12bps.
