Considering purchasing the large 580cc bottle. How many more shots or magazines do you approximately get?
FX 580cc Bottle Upgrade - How many more shots?
- Thread starter 2jz
- Start date
This is like asking how many more miles a bigger gas tank will give you. We need to know your "Mpg" or in this case how much air you use per shot. What's the approximate shot count you have now with a 480 or 500cc bottle?

Assuming your going From a 480cc 240bar to a 580cc 240bar then, an extra 100cc (20% ish) should give you around 20% more.
My thinking is to have a 580cc and a 480cc sitting in reserve, that is around 120% more

I gotcha. Rather than calculating what I can gain, I just wanted to ask someone who has already upgraded and what their experiences were and go off of that.
For my .25 700mm 33.5gr slug at 970fps I get almost exactly 2 full mags so 56 shots.

if I get 56 shots now then 20% more is about 11 more shots

Honestly I have both bottles and have for over a year. My answer.... "more" I've never cared to count. You get more shots. I usually use the smaller bottle to keep my profile/weight a little lower
