BEARDY100 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 I HAVE JUST BOUGHT A BSA ULTRA MULTISHOT AND A SECOND HAND GAS BOTTLE,BUT WHEN I AM FILLING THE GUN ITS ONLY FILLING TO 180 BAR I HAVE NOT GOT A CLUE ABOUT THESE THINGS AS ITS THE FIRST GUN I HAVE HAD,IT MIGHT SOUND SILLY TO YOU ALL BUT COULD IT BE THE BOTTLE IS NEARLY EMPTY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev 1 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Yes it could be that,or the bottle is not powerful enough to fill it, mine is 300bar,and you can get 232bar,so if yours is a lower model maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MM Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 180 would sound about right. dont over do it. If you have any doubts about the bottle, take it to the dive shop, and get it checked and re-filled. The dial on the rifle is not 100% anyway, its just arough guide.

kev 1 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 My brother had his filled up by some bloke who dose it from home,but his machine was not powerful enough so could not fill to max pressure so dont know if this would make a difference..

Warlock Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 2 possibilities for this, first is that if you leave air bottles completely empty you can get moisture collecting in the bottle but this is only minor ammounts which wouldnt cause a swishing but still causes corrosion which means a new bottle, so word of warning never store bottles empty, the other more likely reason for swishing is that someone has filled the bottle with co2, i have seen it done before.
