Hey all,
I'm setting up a bottled Prod bullpup for my wife and I am using the Prod tube with a 9ci bottle off the front. The bottle is 3k psi regulated down to 1350 psi, and the plenum is going to be somewhere around 50-55 cc. It's a .177 conversion that I'm going to be tuning to just under 18 fpe with 10.34 JSB. I'm wondering if I'm going to run into any issues using such a large plenum on a lower powered gun. I seem to remember a discussion about the possibility that the pressure drop in the plenum might be small enough to not trigger the regulator for a couple shots when using a large plenum on low power guns. I don't recall if the discussion was theoretical or someone had actually experienced the phenomenon.
Any thoughts or advice? Anything is much appreciated.
