700cc 300 bar CF bottle on FX Impact

I got a prompt response for Helen, "20 days" maybe quicker if "backorders"

Stats given "400mm" just as broekzwans stated, "0.9KG" "61mm" weight (disappointingly) and width a little higher than broekzwans found with his.

Maybe/hopefully lost in translation. 0.9 seems quite a jump from the stated weight of a 580cc 240bar, but.

Same experience here with Helen; received a prompt reply with the same information. On the question of weight, how much does the aluminum bottle weigh that comes with the Maverick VP and a few others?

No info on the FX, I understand the 425cc ( as per Kral ) are around 0•9.

Helen also told me the same, plus it was$132 in US dollars. Is this legit 

Postage to UK half the price of the bottle, sad , but the way of the world.

Chinese sellers pull numbers out of thin air for shipping which costs them next to nothing since it's still subsidized by the ccp.

I ordered a free replacement control board for my battery welder from china a few years ago. I told the lady I needed it as fast as possible so she shipped it over night with fedex. She charged me $7 shipping and I had the part the next morning. I live in South Carolina USA.

aliexpress shipping skyrocketed in recent months, nomore cheap stuff coming from there neither, need a much longer research to get some bargain+shipping.

I received a second email from Helen and she corrected the weight to .7 kg versus the .9. The aluminum fx bottles weigh .81kg so the 700cc, with the updated number from Helen, would have it lighter. The 580cc carbon fiber tank is .5kg and I think I'm going to get a couple of them for my M3 in .35 and Maverick in the .30. 

Be nice to have that extra on tap for high power tunes especially in the .35. With a cost of $132 it's worth a try to me.

A bottle of 700cc volume, oh my what a crazy time we live in. Can't wait to see twin bottle setups that shoots through tins of pellets in one go.

700cc is so large that a normal 12v compressor cant even do it anymore.

Mine is struggling with the new 580cc I put on the LCS, so yes, FACT!

But wow, 700cc! And we can put 1,400cc with a dual bottle adapter!

Ram2jeep , thanks for the update on weights, did you get a price on their new 580cc? 300bar?.

Helen emailed me again today and said for the bottle shipped by fedex to me in nc would be $60 for shipping. So that’s $192 for the bottle and shipping 

I'm going to preorder 2 of them, one for the Maverick and one for the M3. My shoot count should be wonderful and definitely give me more time out in the field without running low on air while keeping my 300bar 580cc bottles as spares in the bag when out hunting...

I am ( for now ) balking at the $65 shipping, seems excessive, I have ordered goods from China in the recent past with no where near that cost, I don't need it overnight ;-).

Helen said for these type of orders they only air ship; I don't mind the shipping price for prompt delivery. Even items coming from Huma-Air cost but I like getting my items in 2 to 3 days when coming from overseas; faster shipping than when I purchase here in the US and about the same cost as I like to choose expedited shipping...

It's nice to hear you Impact guys are finding the items you want! I wish I could find some JSB Knockouts or some other ~34g .25 cal pellets so I can get my K1 dialed in!!

Just got my tracking information for the 2 bottles I ordered. They ship FedEx and should be here next week.

I don't know about you Americans but when anything comes FedEx lube up your ass brokerage fees, import fees, fuel surcharge, executive toilet paper fees incoming. I HATE FedEx and UPS on anything that crosses a border.
