Would either of the Air arms rifles be worth the extra price over the Slavia CZ 200 S?

Also I have a 68ci. 4500PSI HPA paintball tank. About how many fills can I get from this tank?

Thanks.


None.
you have a regulator on that tank that is in the way of using it for filling other PCP rigs.


I think my regulator might be able to come of. I just don't want to try because there is 3000 Psi still in there.

So if my regulator can come off about how many fills can I get from a 68ci 4500psi paint ball tank?

So still 'none'

The valve is 2 parts. To fill it you bypass the first part.

I'll have to empty the tank and take it apart.

Would like to see your setup. I have a 90 c.i. tank that will be a carry along if I can figure a valve for it.
Let me know if you find something.

all you would have to do is swap out your regulator with one that is meant for the higher pressures and you should be good to go

To answer your question.... IF you replace your regulator with one having a 3000 psi output you can use this calculator to figure the number of refills:

http://www.airhog.com/tank.htm

Your 68ci tank actually holds 68x4500/14.5/1728 = 12.2 cu.ft. of air at 1 Bar (which is what you need for the calculator).... I don't know what the reservoir size is on an AA but if you look at a Marauder (215 cc) filling to 3000 psi and refilling when the pressure drops to 1500 psi you would get about 5 fills starting at 4500 psi on your 68 ci. tank....

By comparison, on the Challenger which fills to 2000 psi and has only a 135cc reservoir.... you could get about 21 refills....
