Are people just checking velocity and totally ignoring BB weight or what?
Fps is literally half the information required to determine muzzle energy. So more realistically; measuring with fps is more like measuring weight when determining mass.
Easy enough to determine mass from weight when you know the gravitational constant at a given altitude.
What I do is write the max fps for each weight on the chrono because its way faster than reprogramming the chrono for every player. And I think the xcortechs calculations are off for muzzle energy anyway.
