A lot of air rifles only fill to 200 bar anyway, so you'll still get a lot of max pressure fills from the bottle. If it was only a small bottle 3l/5l) it might be worth getting a 300 bar bottle, as you'd be able to get more fills from the equivalent sized bottle. but a 15l one will give you a fair few charges!

bruno22rf Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 Might also be worth considering that , if you mess up on filling, 232bar is less likely to blow your gun to bits than 300bar . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a video from lane regulators on you tube, showing an overcharged rifle reservoir that had blown the seals out- the end of reservoir had kind of trumpeted out slightly. gun was useless but didnt explode. In One of Steve Shally's videos (AEAC channel on you tube) he tried overcharging a rifle a couple of times I think he said, again- it blew the seals out but no other damage. I would imagine precharged guns are designed to fail as safely as possible, but I expect there is someone out there who knows someone that had a gun explode.
