for speedball

[P8ntbllr99]

does anyone here use those 4 oz co2 tanks for speedball, i would think you would be able to run faster and stuff, and they shoot 250-400 shots a fill and i never shoot that much during a speedball game so i was just wondering if anyone else uses them

I don't think you'll find very many people that do, and I really don't see how you'll be able to run faster because your tank is 6 or 16 ounces lighter than other people's tanks. It's smaller, but almost everyone else perfers a 68 CI tank, or at least a 16 OZ tank, as there's little to no advantage of having a tank just a bit smaller than some others.

I may be incorrect, but I think the 4 oz is the largest allowable constant air size for some stock class events. If it suits you then feel free to use it- you'll soon know if your style of play demands a larger gas supply or not.

That said, smaller capacity CO2 tanks are getting harder to find these days (in the UK at least).

I thought the ounces part on a co2 tank refers to the weight of co2 you can put in it safely?

Anyway, having a small tank like that, MAY increase your speed and reduce your profile slightly but surely your marker is going to be front heavy making it harder to shoot accurately.

Your going to have to buy a larger tank for other games so just buy that and save your money for more paint/games.
