john2 Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 There are no good cheap new tanks Look up your nearest dive centre/shop or look in back pages of air gunner or the other one Stick with 300 bar what ever size, more fills J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lineshooter Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 Check your local area, some places can only fill to 232 bar, you dont want to be driving miles for a 300 bar fill. I paid £90 for a good used 232, 12lt bottle with quitesome test still on it, I then brought a new valve and guage from MDE. I went for the big bottle as I charge Brocock cartridges as well as three pcp`s, I also have a 3lt bottle to take in the field, the same valve fits both so keeping the cost down, if you dont shoot that often perhaps a 3lt bottle may do. Do your research before buying and you cant go wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Power ranger Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 JS Ramsbottom are the cheapest about for bottle/gague/hose at the moment 300 bar 12 litre with boot 209.95 + 7.99 postage. I am same as cloud9,,, Ultra + pump = easy peasy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edr Posted October 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 Thanks for the advice, i think i will stick with 300 bar as all the shops that would fill round hear fill to 300bar. I emailed best fittings and they replied that there 12 ltr (300 bar) are out of stock but when they have some back in could be getting on for £275 Thanks Again EDR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
