Ok well my question is if I get an ion and use a 68ci 4500 psi tank whenever the tank is almost empty wil the shots start shooting less of a distance? My tippmann running off of co2 starts to shoot less distance when the tank is almost out. So does it still do this with HPA or what? Thanks

the reason co2 does that it when you replease the pressure inside the tank so the liquid inside instantly boils until the pressure is restored, when theres no boiling liquid to refill the tank you get a rapid pressure drop...

HPa generally drops a little bit but not as much a Co2, but HPa will drop massively when you run really really low, becuase theres no air in the tank anymore...

i don't know what your grade in chemestry was, but nitrogen isn't the same as hpa, nitrogen is pure nitrogen, hpa is 78% nitrogen 21% oxygen, and 1% other. 
98% of ion owners think ions are better than any high end gun. If you would like to bonus ball these idiots put this in your sig.
