About this deal

The darts are made from expanded polypropylene (EPP) which is brittle and not as flexible as most foam darts, and similar in appearance to styrofoam.

This also corresponds to the area under greatest stress when ULTRA Darts impact their target, weakening this joint and often causing the heads to come loose or detach. Initial testing has them hitting much tighter groupings at distance, as well as slightly better initial velocities out of the Select. There have been reports online that ULTRA Darts suffer from significant wear and tear around the dart head.The full-auto only operates at two darts per second, but it also doesn’t see any notable slowdown in launch velocity.

Seeing as Ultra blasters have mechanisms to prevent firing non-Ultra darts and objects, I assume that provision was made for an extra switch until the pusher mechanism safety was proven. Standard Ultra darts, at least over the chronograph I was using, averaged 94fps, while the new design averaged 103fps. The blaster still retains the standard Ultra-sized grip, along with a hand guard that’s restrictive for larger fingers, especially in the trigger area. Now, the Ultra Select is silently releasing, but (within reason) meeting those expectations, two years later.The carry handle is nice, though I suspect it serves to also strengthen the shell (a magazine carriage instead of a single magazine well means less support for the blaster shell itself). When that signal gets cut, the pusher motor is put into reverse, retracting the pusher instead of continuing the initial motion.

These ground-breaking darts feature an innovative flight tip, Aerofin technology, and Nerf Ultra foam. Once the pusher position switch is engaged, the mechanism shuts off and resets, waiting for the next trigger depression to start things over again. It has a streamlined dart head, similar to that of Mega Darts, though the dart heads of ULTRA Darts feature two small parallel holes towards the top. It’s the setup you’d expect from a Rapidstrike (scotch yoke pusher, three switch setup), but with extra bits attached, and a main PCB controlling everything. Paying a premium for a proprietary dart is one thing; paying even more for what it should have been in the first place is absurd.

The new darts show what Ultra could have promised, had they waited to release the line a little longer.
