Does anyone know if you sweet spot the Rocket valve like other valves, or is it an exception to the rule similar to the Tornado valve. Here's why I ask: From Ravi's page regarding 'sweet spotting' your valve: "My personal favorite way to set the input pressure for most ‘guns (the Tornado valve is a major exception) is to set the velocity adjuster to the mid point, then adjust your pressure regulator to the point where you get the highest velocity..." Also from Ravi's page regarding the Tornado valve: "As a result of how the Tornado valve is designed, velocity is set by changing input pressure. Changing spring tension with the standard adjuster in the back of the ´gun results in velocity changes far too small in magnitude to be useful." So, is the Rocket valve in the exception catagory like the Tornado valve, or do I sweet spot it like any other valve? Thanks in advance.
