I am considering an Impulse or an Autococker. For an Impulse, what size tank would be best? Money is a large issue, so I was looking at a 47ci 3000psi tank from a local store. How many shots would I get off a tank like that? Would it be to small? Otherwise a larger tank price would be around 200, 100 more thanthe 47ci. Thanks.

Impys dont get the best efficiency, so a 47/3k is kind of small. It pretty much depends on your position and how many shots you need...

I play front, and maybe a full eggy hopper, maybe a pod per game.

Well then the 47/3k probably would be ok. But wow, only one hopper a game?

you will get like 500-600 shots ... or get anti siphon c02 and save for a larger tank

:eek:900 shots:eek:

But yeah, a 47/3000 is probably best for a front player who doesnt shoot that much, like you.:)

Bah... I've been down to my last ~20-30 out of a 4+3 w/ 140's and a full hopper... that's 1150ish shots.

I would try to get atleast a 68ci 3000psi. A 47ci 3000psi wont get to many shots, and even though you dont shot much you can never be to careful.
