Alright yall it may be a stretch to really call this a study but its a bit of research. If you know post how many shots you get for your tank. List all the tanks you got. It doesnt matter if its co2 nitro or compressed air. So go ahead and list your SPT and once pretty much all who are going to post have, ill do all the mave and averaging etc. Hope this works.

I got a 20oz. CO2 and I probably get about 1000-1200 shots.

I guess this really depends on if you get a good fill in your tank or not, and what your velocity is set at. I use a PMI 20oz tank, with my spyder TL+. I can get at LEAST 1000 shots.
to get a good fill you should make sure your tank is cold when you have Co2 put into the tank. I put it in the frige for a few minutes then I fill my Co2.

I nkow there are alot of circumstances as to how many shots you get. Thats why iwant lots of input so we can maybe get an average. Lets see some nitro averages!

:( No study can be completed with 4 replys, keep them coming and if you dont know your SPT kinda keep track next time you play, just a general idea. Start with frech co2/nitro and remember how many hoppers youve shot for a rough count. Im writing these down so if the post dies thats ok. Ill repost again later, thanx yall
(p.s- am i wasting my time? has this already been done?)

I use a 68 ci/4500psi tank on my low pressured timi.
I get about 850 to 900 strong shots from one tank :D

kool kool, man skippy, maybe you should check your valve or something. Maybe you have a leak. 500 shots is pretty low for 17oz

i had problem w/ my valve but i fixed it. I don't hear it leak but i agree 500 shots is really low for 17 oz but i dont know if the fact that i play in 40* weather has something to do with it.

i've heard that 15 and 16oz will get you 750, and it seems about right, i'll get back to you w/ a solid number after i kill this tank.

I also have a 9oz. CO2 - I can probably squeeze 500 shots out of that on a good day.

i guess i can get about 700-800 good shots on my 20oz no antisiphon
it depends on my gun i can get like 1200-1300 on my procarbine with a 20 oz. with my shocker it is only like 800-1000.
