You jumped into a rifle not knowing anything about it?
What is the fill pressure for the rifle?
You will need an SCBA tank with the correct fitting for the rifle, as well as the correct fill adapter for your tank. There are a few different threads as well as adapters for each SCBA tank.
What tank did you get?
What fill port is on the rilfe?
What is the fill pressure?
What is the fill pressure of the SCBA tank?
How are you going to fill the SCBA tank?

Are you buying used or new? If its a used tank you will need a compressor and fill the tank yourself if the tank is expired. Used tanks sometimes come with a scba valve. You can keep the valve and buy a 347 adapter.
I took off my scba valves and replaced them with pcp valves. You can also buy a new tank and have it filled at a dive shop or a pcp shop. There are some tuxing tanks on Amazon that come with a valve and hose but the valves aren't the best quality.
Here is what i have compressor, air filter, tank, valve, hose.

Might be less costly to purchase a compressor off of amazon like a GX CSi4. This compressor will also fill tanks down the road.....just fill it in increments so as not to build up heat.

@DavidMora A large carbon fiber SCBA tank (60 minute or 97 cuft) and valve that can handle 310 bar/4500 psi, a fitting that can screw into your SCBA tank valve that can accommodate a male foster fitting, a high pressure air fill hose (fill whip) with female foster fittings on both ends, and a dive shop to fill your SCBA tank. Be sure that your SCBA is less than 15 years old if you are going to depend upon a dive ship to fill it. Although with a Bushbuck I suggest purchasing a compressor to fill your rifle directly. This compressor needs to be able to regularly achieve 4500 psi fill pressure without straining, running excessively hot, or breaking down. The Bushbuck uses a lot of air just to produce a few high powered shots.

I prefer the direct gun fill compressor route . 12 volts and fill with the car / truck in the field ( you do need to have the car running and RPM up just a bit while filling )

Hi, do you have a dive shop or other facility near by that can fill the scba tank at a reasonable price?
Where are you going to practice shooting?

Don’t forget to ask if the hydro dates are current
IMO it’s always better to fill a tank and then slowly fill / cascade into the Airgun
