What is the temperature of CO2 at 800psi?

I think this has been posted before and I would just give you a link to that post but I cant find it so Ill give the link again.

While Im not sure if this is what the original poster intended, the question I understand him to be asking cant be found with 5 minutes worth of Googling. [On my part at least]

The chart you provided denotes while the surrounding enviroment is X temperature, the pressure of the tank in accordance with its percentage of fill will be X PSI. No reference to what temperature the CO2 will be under pressure. Ive found figures previously, but returning such seem to be harder this time :-p Ill look a bit more to see if I can come up with anything, if not ill ask for BLBs assitance. [Hes better at Physics then my poor ass is...]

Oh well thats all I did was a few minutes on google. My bad for not a very accurate chart.

*smacks head on keyboard*

Whats the worth of providing infromation that does not answer the original question? I could you tell you that Snickers taste good, and even provide you with a chart proving such, but it has no worth in this thread. Catch my drift?

The charts fault you provided did not lie in its 'accuracy', solely that it provided us with the wrong info.

[Sorry not trying to be a detail Nazi, just clarifying. I know to some that may seem one in the same, but whatever...]

There is no set temprature for CO2 at 800psi.

In most cases, it will be equil to the room temprature, recent (de)compression, or rapid condition shifts aside.

I was aasking because I heard it could freeze and break the PVC at it's liquid state. One of my friends told me that it was about -300ºF. If I have a regulatory chamber and some more iron pipe then I might be able to build a safe PVC CO2 gun.
