what do you think is better for a coil gun with a 9cm coil, 15-17layers of 22gage wire?
560uf x 280v OR 330uf x 385v?
Also I could use 3 capacitors but only of one of the types above.
Coil Gun Capacitors?

If your getting chased off a police dog, try not to run through a tunnel then onto a small see-saw then through a ring of fire. They are trained for that!

I read on spud tech voltage is more important because its more power and its on for a shorter amount of time

Voltage is most important. High voltage means high amps, which means a stronger magnetic field.
Don't bother operating at below about 300 volts, and the more you can get the better.
More Voltage = stronger field
More capacitance = longer lasting field.
Don't overcook it on the capacitance, because if the field lasts too long then power is lost.

Novacastrian: How about use whatever the heck you can get your hands on?
frankrede: Well then I guess it won't matter when you decide to drink bleach because your out of kool-aid.
...I'm sorry, but that made my year.
