Filling hatsan 135 vortex

has anyone experimented with filling a hatsan past 150 bar. I went to about 175 on all 4 of mine and velocities went thru the roof. Its been a few days and at least 200 shots between them all and they have settled down (still making 34ft/lbs on 22 and almost 40 on 25 and 30 cal, 30 on 177) and are shooting consistent velocities. Very powerful but will it last? Also has anyone experimented with gigapower vd gas springs up to 220 bar? I ordered some of those
 
Hatsan's rams are only supposed to be rated for 150 bar or roughly 2175.5 psi, but I'm guessing you already know that. I'd also guess Hatsan had their reasons for it and designed all the moving parts to be able to handle that much pressure if someone decided to stretch it to their max listed pressure. Next question is how much extra did they factor into all those parts if someone decided like you did to jack that up like you have to 175 bar or roughly a little over 2538 psi. You'd have to ask Hatsan how much pressure the seals in that gas ram are even designed to withstand before they blow out. You mentioned the velocities are holding, now how much harder is it to be accurate with that much power behind the trigger?

You also don't seem to have factored in way more stress on the cocking arm, seals, trigger sears, receiver, the screws holding that action in the stock. Sooner or later all that extra pressure and the force required to cock it not to mention the forces generated firing is going to make something break loose long before it was probably meant to.

You want that much power, my suggestion is go buy a PCP.

Will it last? I DOUBT IT. Then again this is what FX customers are trying too in a PCP way so I don't blame you one bit. Let us all know how long she lasts before total failure. Yo!
 
I own a bt65 pcp in .25. Regulated and unregulated cylinders. The 22 caliber feels the tightest and I have actually gained accuracy on my .177. I've had velocities as high as 1050 with the predator gto 16.54 grain. It averages about 1025 tho. The predator .22 11.75 grains I'm averaging around 1130. I guess I wanted to try it because it just cool having a selfcontained rifle that powerful. But no. Nothing is getting loose as of now. I wanted to know had anyone experimented with the Russian made gigapower or megapower gas springs for hatsan. Posting chrony results
