air cylinder

[ulsterman]

I want to buy a 3lt or maybe a 7lt air bottle for my daystate huntsman approximately how many times will I be able to fill the rifle from the 3lt cylinder before it needs filled and the same question for the 7lt .

 

Thanks

Remember your not filling it but only topping up . I only use a 3l and can't see the point in bigger for me as when its low I'll just have a fill at £2 and drive 3 miles to do it .

I'd say I top up my s400 atleast 10 times minimum after taking 40 shots out of it .

 

The only time they go big is for buddy bottles

I have a 7ltr 300bar bottle as when I need a fill I have a 40 mile trip. The cost to fill the bottle is only £3.50 though

I have two bottles 1 x 3 lit 300 bar bottle. And 1 x 12 lit 232 bar bottle.

I have 7 PCP Rifles most with 200 bar 200cc air tubes on them.

My Daystate Huntsman FTR is topped up after 70 shots. 100 bar back to 200 bar.

Only my BSA super 10 takes a 232 bar fill.

I do a lot of vermin control on rats so i use a lot of air. Most of my guns are doing 11 to 12 ftlb.

The 3 lit 300 bar bottle will top a gun up 17 to 20 times. 100 bar back to 200 bar.

The 12 lit 232 bar bottle will top a gun up about 30 to 35 times back to 200 bar.

I pay £3.50 for the bottles filled up each. I get them filled about once a year.

So lets say 50 top ups from 100 bar to 200 bar at 70 shots per top up == 3500 shots. For £7.00.

Some guns only like a low fill.

My Logun Pro gives 90 shots from 70 bar to 170 bar at 11 to 12 ftlb.

If i fill it more than 170 bar the power drops right off. At 200 bar it`s down to 5 ftlb.

 

Happy
