But of course most air rifles can take multiple shots with a 3000psi tank.

Some can shoot 60 in 1 tank of air.

It depends on how much power each shot has.

What volume do you think that tank has though?Because my cannon doesn't have an overly large chamber volume.So getting to 300psi shouldn't take to long.

Aussie Pride Baby!Something we are great at doing,showing our love for this sunburnt land!

Australia Day is coming up soon as well,Ohh yeh!

Back on topic,gun all set and dried I had a shoot of it and the piston is a little loose so it will require a rebuild but it shoots pretty well for the moment at 160psi.And my ballistic gel didn't set properly :cry: .

What about pesky wabbits?

Ah, give him a break, the M and N keys are immediately next to each other. If I think too much about my typing, the same thing happens to me. (I exhibit the phenomenon of being able to touch type only when I don't realise I'm doing it - but I'm getting better, I can sort of think about it now.)

...What's up doc?
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?

I'm guilty of similar errors but in this case the setup was such that it was impossible not to comment :D

I have added a few thing to my musket,and I'm more then happy with it.It shoots in the 360fps range steadily with sinkers at 150psi which is great ammo,and the power is ok for now but I do plan to take it to 300psi.

I'll get the pictures up soon when I get it all back together,as I'm re-building the piston.I did need a spring bumper. . . . .
