For the approximate amount of shoots per HPA tank, follow this formula
x*y=shots x= cubic units y= psi of the tank. For 3000 psi multiply the X*10. For 4500 psi multiply X*15. For example, a 48/3000 psi tank would get you approximately 480 shots, or 48*10. 48/4500 psi tank would get you 48*15 shots. |

A 68/4500 full fill is about equivalent to a 20 oz C02. |

Probably because c02 bows down to HPA.

I still run my 98 custom off CO2 and it shoots as accurately as it does off HPA...
Don't upgrade unless you need to. I have no idea what kind of gun you shoot, so I'm just making a general comment. |
