Roller Speargun Rubber

For a conventional roller what's your preference for rubber, reactive or progressive? It seems a lot of rollers are sold with reactive rubbers but i find that makes way more recoil and is less accurate.

Cool, would you say it's a firm or a stretchy rubber? What kind of % are you stretching it to and what size shaft ?
I have been using the really soft Salvimar acid green 16mm with a 7.5 shaft but I'm going down to a 14mm small ID too.

Re: Roller Speargun Rubber

It seems to be on the stretchy side to me. I’m shooting a Pathos 85cm and a Pathos 115cm roller guns with 7mm shaft. At 3.00%. Shaft length is 47” and 58”
