    Does a new hpa carbon fiber tank arrive filled to capacity?

    Dear friends, The topic title says it all ... do HPA carbon fiber 4,500 psi tanks (Great White) arrive from across the country filled to capacity? Or must my first task be to visit a scuba or paint ball shop to have it filled? Also, where can I see a video of how to assemble the...

    Number of fills to be had from a scba carbon fiber tank

    I I would like to avoid needing a compressor to service my first pcp air rifle. I need to know how many fills I would get from a 100 cu. ft. carbon fiber tank when refilling a 300 bar bottle gun that would be filled to just 250 bar and run down to 150 bar before refilling the rifle's...

    Modifications to the Benjamin Kratos

    Has anyone done any modifications to their Benjamin Kratos? I was particularly wondering if I could swap the factory bottle for a 580cc carbon fiber bottle. This would mean lighter weight and a greater shot count. Would this swap entail removing some wood from the fore-stock area where...

    Need help in choosing a rangefinder for hunting with a pcp

    I have never used a rangefinder -- really unnecessary when I was hunting groundhogs with my 22-250! I can't believe that I would need to spend $300+ for an instrument that I would want to range only out to about 200 yards at the very most. I have spent a lot of time on research. One...

    Number of high pressure fills from a 90 c.f. carbon fiber tank

    I am hoping to enter the PCP world of air gunning shortly. I live about a 15 minute drive from a dive shop that can charge any 4,500 psi tank I would purchase. I know a new carbon fiber tank of 90 cu. ft. would go for about $700. Perhaps I could save a bit by purchasing such a tank used...

    Concerning Rangefinders

    I have never used a laser rangefinder. As with most people considering such a purchase, I have checked out the online reviews. I have not seen on any forums what it had occurred to me would be a good feature in a rangefinder. That is image stabilization. The particular model I would be...

    Brocock xr sniper or FX wildcat mark iii

    I hope to receive some good advice concerning my possible choice of either of the PCPs mentioned in the title. The problem is that neither rifle has much in the way of helpful reviews, thus far. That is, other than listing the specifications of these new iterations of former rifles...
