I want to get a 580cc bottle but the stock 480cc is very close to the shroud towards the end. Will a 580cc work? Are there some bottle brands that are a slightly smaller diameter?
Brocock/BRK Ghost 580cc bottle and barrel clearance?
- Thread starter Jay308
- Start date
There is a slope(gap narrows)and if it is any longer at that diameter it looks as it will touch.

CF bottles all have runout to some degree or another, so where it is clocked now it's close to the shroud. Any 61.5-62mm diameter 580cc bottle should work great.

Make sure you get the frosted finish on the tuxing bottles, they cost more but are ultra-light weight at .45kg for 580cc. The shiny carbon fiber finish is cheaper and pretty heavy, that is if you're shopping at the south american jungle.

That would be sweet, it will cut down some forward weight. What adapter are you going to use to connect to the eq ?

Not the saber tactical one… but one that isn’t released yet… I already have a picatinny trigger guard on it. CF bottle soon and gonna swap out the 70cc plenum for a 100cc plenum.
Currently at like 122fpe and 22 shots a fill. But the goal is 130fpe with 30 a fill. Shooting 71gr hybrid boattails.

Those are some big power numbers! Its definitely a capable gun. I have the 30 cal eq. I make around 100fpe. With 52 gr slugs @ 2650psi. I do have regulator creep unfortunately, that's my only complaint. So when im not using it the pressure rises to 3000psi

You shooting .300 or .303….. to fix the regulator add 8-10 of silicone oil to your fill hose… dry fire down close to reg pressure. Before you fill the gun again lower the reg back down a bit, add silicone oil again. Refill, dry fire a little then move the reg back to where you want it…. Only creep after that should be 100psi or so and just temperature related.

I have like 7 tins of .30, I recently heard .303 fit better though, i will order some nsa .303 61gr to try out. Thanks for the silicone oil suggestion I will try it later today

Yeah I had to give all my .30s… youre doing okay cuz you’re not going very fast. 920-930 was about the limit that I could get any of them to group… but your shooting it like a blowgun at that point since you’re getting almost no engagement with the rifling.
