AS Jeff, posted get a tank from JDSairman.com

The 53 cu inch tank looks like a good deal for sure.

I ordered a couple from john and ended up with 73 cu inch tanks instead.
Gonna get a couple of teh 53 cu inch tanks in a bit once I find out some dimensions from John.

His regulators look real sweet BTW so if you need a reg his look very good.

This is the 53 cu.in. 3000psi Tank and Regulator.
Length: 14″ from the top of the regulator to the bottom of the tank.
11 1/4″ tank alone.
Diameter: 3 1/4″
Weight: 2.70 LBS.
Threads: 5/8-18UNF 2-B.

Idont want to blow my self up……

Where can I find a airforce sized tank that fits the 5/8 co2 threads
and has a 3000psi rating…I just don’t like the small size of the
13cuin or 20cuin that they offer and then thers the bigger ones
that are like 3 1/4″ and 3 3/8″ in diameter….. one to small and
one to large….. thats why I Was using the 12oz. co2 tank….I have very
long arms and a head to match….1800psi working ,yes sir…

I have question about you tank…Is it rated at

1800psi or is a 3000psi …should be on the tank

around the neck of it ….The one I’m using is

only rated to 1800psi, I filled it to 2000psi afraid

to go any higher….even thou it came with 3000psi

blow out on it???? What is your take on this , and any-

one elses for that matter……TNX Shelby

1800psi is the Working Pressure of that tank so fill to 1800psi

if you have a 3,000psi rated tank that is teh Working Pressure of the tank so fill to 3,000psi

That group # 2 is some good shootin! If you have a gauge you should take note of your fill pressure, cause regs. also operate better at certain fills.

It was really odd maw….The first 3 shots in the 2nd
group went on top of each other and I thought I was
going to have a really tight one hole group. The fourth shot
went to the right. The 5th shot went back to the left,
then the next 3 all went back to the right….It had to
be that I changed the way I was holding the gun…
I had filled the tank to 2,900psi so the 2nd group had
to be in the 2,800psi range but I didn’t take note of the
gauge…It seems to be doing pretty well. The chrony
numbers pretty much reflect the same as the target.
Some deviation in fps but not nearly as drastic as what
I was getting before….I’m pretty happy with it now….
When I can aim at a 1/4″ dot at 65yds with a reasonable
expectation of hitting it, I think that is about all I can ask
for out of a pellet rifle….

It is a 3,000psi tank…
looks like I have a3k and 5k blowout….

Here is a short string….It’s a little flakey but not too bad…Could be much better, just not sure how to tighten it up…
