I am gunnas start using my dad's Tippmann A5 and it has a Cyclone feeder with Response trigger. My problem is that it eats through Co2 and is there any way I can get this to be more efficient. I am playing with it on friday so any help would be great

CO2 efficiency is highly dependent on the weather/temperature. Adding an expansion chamber can help somewhat or possibly a Palmer Stabilizer. Dialing in a stabilizer can be tough sometimes on an A5 though due to the use of the RT and Cyclone since they both work off of excess gas. If you try to make the marker too efficient, you can starve the RT and Cyclone.
