i'm new to using hpa, I have a 68\4500 the guy at my paintball shop said that he couldnt fill 4500psi today so he filled it up to 3000psi, im just wondering if it will do anything to my tank, like it wont screw up the reg or anything will it?

You can always fill a 4500psi tank to less than 4500psi, but never more than 4500psi. So a 68ci 4500psi tank can be a 68ci 3000psi but never a 5000psi. If that makes any sense. -------------  irc.esper.net #paintball |

If you filled up your tank to 4500 and shot enough it would go down to 3000psi. ------------- Team Salem, Kuwait 08 |

hehe... yeah, no harm can come. In fact, my nitro (a 68/4500) got filled to 3k today, and it was fine....up until I ran out of air. :( |
