Just put a rt and cyclone feed on my 98c. Works fine except for the fact that I only go about 60 shots out of a 16oz co2 tank. Used 2 different tanks filled at different stores to rule out underfilled, or tank problems.

What could problem be.

You're playing in cold weather, which makes the co2 mostly just liquid when it goes into the gun, get an expansion chamber, or it could just be underfilling.  The people could just suck at filling and didn't cool off the tank before trying to fill.
