Alright... I have a 47 / 3000 nitro tank i have a question... If your guage says you have like 700 psi left, will you notice a decrease in velocity if my a-5 runs at 800 psi? I only ask because i just got my tank and haven't filled it yet to find out. Thanks a mil -------------

It will work down too about 550psi. You wont loose much velocity down to that. -------------

If your planning on playing anytime soon I would get a fill. 700psi will still work but not for long. Maybe a few dozen shots or less. ------------- Team Salem, Kuwait 08 |
