Best 11/16 valve for AC

[djeclypse]

Branching off from DocsMachine best AC/Sniper pump kit, what are the opinions on the best VALVES for 11/16 bodies? I know PPS, AKA, ID, Morph and stock WGP. Are there others? If so, what's YOUR opinion for the best, and why? Just curious if it makes a difference in shot quality and consistency. Thanks!!!

CCM makes them to you just have to ask nicely

[Ecapnation]

Available as ss25 lower tubes

Empire Resurrection and Empire Sniper have two more valves as well.
Inexpensive and pretty good.

Inception is my top pick but PPS is very underrated. It runs at a little higher pressure in my experience but is excellent.

I agree, PPS is very under rated! One of my favorites, especially with the brass stem. Aka and ID have smaller happy zones.

I REALLY like the morph valve. It's not the most efficient, and it's not the easiest to set up. But it just feels soooo good. The only real downside is that they are hard to find.

I haven't used many other 11/16 valves, but one that isn't discussed often is the Macdev valve. You have to steal it from a Cyborg, but it works great. VERY low pressure.

Second on the Morph. Just unreal in an Empire Sniper, after installing high quality o-rings.

I went with an AKA tornado valve in my Resurrection, their 11/16

AKA Paintball

I like AKA, CCM, Palmers, Inception pretty much in that order. valves make very little difference. It’s all in the springs.

Magmoormaster, do you have experience with putting MacDev red valves in cockers? I have a few of them and never considered it.

[latches109]

yes nice valves. I can put one to good use.

[Magmoormaster]

I’ve used them a few times. I had trouble getting the 9/16 valve up to velocity but I didn’t spend much time experimenting with different springs. The 11:16 valve, however, worked great and got up to velocity at sun-200 psi.

[Cunha]

I would say the Palmer 11/16 valve, and the current generation CCM 11/16 valve are my personal picks. Older SS25 valves suck. I don't like the tornado valve because it requires stronger opening force (stronger main spring) in general, despite its low operating pressure.

I've wanted to try a mac dev cyborg valve in an autococker but have never done it myself.

I see on PPS's site that there are two options for valve stems with the 11/16" valve... regular and extended length.

Any idea what the different lengths are for? I'm thinking of ordering a valve for my SR so this thread caught my eye.

[flyweightnate]

Some hammers have a dimpled face. Might be a reason to get a longer stem.
Do any 11/16 bodies use a jam nut, like the 9/16 bodies?

[Cunha]

No 11/16 have jam nut, removing the jam nut threads is basically what makes an 11/16 lower tube.

About the stems, I’d call. I’d bet you want the standard length.

[Ghille-Man]

I just got my hands on the inceptions V3 valve and I absolutely love it.

[latches109]

Valve quiz name them all

[gabe]

Meteor red chamber, planet eclipse, shocktech, aka, WGP orracle/stainless, another shocktech, morph, PPS, CCM, maddmann rocket, another WGP stainless, shocktech, a few more stock WGP's of various years, Bob Long, and a newer red CCM valve.

How'd I do?

[latches109]

Black is jackal, ans CCM knock off, Macdev Red valve, pre97 pps stem in HF valve, in plastic is ccm
