Yes, the power of the gun depends on several factors. One of them is the coil. Rising the number of turns you also increase the ohmic resistance and so the peak of the capacitor current during the discharge. Another factor is the capacitor value. Rising the value, you could reach the limit of peak current in the SCR and burn this device. Finally you have the size of the core of the coil The material and the weight determines the final speed of the core when lounching the projectile. Many factors to think about when resizing and building the gun. Write me in case of any question...
