: I've heard somewhere that for a 3000psi tank without running LP you can expect approx 10 shots per cubic inch (i know this varies alot with different markers). I was wondering if anyone knows the approx number of shots per ci for a 4500psi tank (or a web sight that has it or can explain it). thanks
The corresponding rule of thumb for 4.5k tanks is 15 shots per ci. Your mileage will vary though. :)
The formula is P1V1 = P2V2. So if you are able to use the whole tank (which you can't) a 4500psi HPA system will give you 50% more shots.
