4500 psi will give you more shots per tank than a 3000. So I'd get that, unless where you get your tanks filled can't fill up to 4500 psi. And 68 cu is the average size tank. Now depending on how many shots per tank you want to get, then you might want to get a bigger/smaller tank. ------------- http://www.macdev.net - MacDev Militia http://www.alienpb.com - Alien - Because winning is more fun. |

As a general rule shots per tank go as such: 3000psi=10 shots per cubic inch 4500psi=15 shots per cubic inch 5000psi=20 shots per cubic inch So 68 multiplied by 15 is? 1020 its a nice round number for shots Of course it varries due to the efficency of the gun. |

I just bought a 91/4500 and i was exspecting it to be huge but it wasn't at all and you can get almost 2000 shots off of it. -------------
