Dude, it doesnt matter. The higher the dwell, the higher your velocity will be. The lower your dwell the lower the velocity. If u have a high pressure tank, i recommend maybe like a dwell from 8-12 depending on how high pressure. If you have a low pressure tank go with like a 14-18 dwell. Basically though, its always better to have your dwell as high as possible, and just lower the velocity screw, to make ure fields limit, cuz higher dwell is easier on paint. Hope you understand!

higher dwell doesnt always mean higher fps....what i did was just go to a chrono and shoot a few balls on each dwell setting until u hit a platoue where ur fps stop getting higher and start drcreasing and set it to whichever one gave u the highest. then adjust ur tank( if its adjustable and am running a gas through) or ur mini reg acording to the limit, gives u the most out of every shot, i have mine at 12, and my air at 220 getting 280-285 fps, but all guns are different, not quite sure wht my lpr is right now
