1. Are you sure it was completely full? 2. Was it ridiculously cold? 3. Could you hear any leaks? ------------- Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your... http://www.deltasquad.info/">

oh forgot to add, the first time i recieved the tank, it didnt have an o ring on it. And its really hard to put it on without the co2 leaking out. Any suggestions? ------------- Tippman A-5 |

go buy some orings. put them on, fill the tank because it probably wasnt full and then try it. ------------- Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your... http://www.deltasquad.info/">

i got an o ring on it. But the guys at the store asked me if i wanted to fill it when i bought it and i said yes and filled it 300 shots later and i guess the leaks got the best of it  ------------- Tippman A-5 |

honestly i have heard of this happening and the store didnt really fill it all the way. it sucks but it happens. i would say try again and also the leaks very well could have gotten the best of it since it would have been constantly leaking. ------------- Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your... http://www.deltasquad.info/">
