ok here is a total noob question what is the HPA tank size that is closest to your average steel 20oz co2. also what is the maximum size that will fit in your average 6+1 podpack. (I run a remote)

I think the closest is a 3000psi 48ci steel tank. It maybe a bit bigger than a 20. Will have to find mine and messure it for you.

A 48ci steel tank sounds about right.

I don't think 45/300 is close to a 20 oz of CO2. I'm pretty sure its the 68/4500.

When you say "Closest" are you talking ONLY physical tank size or are you refering to Shots Per Fill as well? If memory serves a 68/4500 gives you about the same number of shots as a 20 oz CO2.

PSI also has to do with capacity. A 68/4500 will give you more shots per tank than a 68/3000 even though the tanks are physically the same size. |
