HOW MANY SHOTS?
Co2 will get you more shots per volume than HPA but is less consistant. High speed firing will cause shots to drop off since Co2 cools as it expands but needs it to expand fully.
a 12g Co2 powerlette will get between 20 and 30 shots.
A 9oz Co2 tank will get between 460 - 690 shots.
A 20oz Co2 tank will get between 1000 - 1500 shots.
HPA will depend on the pressure and the cubic inches(ci) of the tank.
if the tank is 3000psi then you multiply ci by 10. So a 68ci tank will give you about 680 shots.
A 4500psi tank is by 15 so the same sized tank will give about 1020.
and a 5000 psi tank is by 20, so it would give you 1360.
The down side to HPA is not all fields do HPA fills and those that do may not be able to fill all tank to the proper psi. So if you have a 5000psi tank and your field can only do 3000psi then you loose the full benefit of the tank.
