Air Bottle, Pump, Hand Pump ???????????

How where and what are people using to refill their air tanks ?
I see more and more air tanks on Pcp, s that are between 250 and 300 bar or even more so the question is as the title suggests how and where do you fill them.
 
Strong advice: forget a hand pump right away unless you want to get biceps like Popeye and ruin your hand pump.
Today there are air rifles that can be loaded up to 300bar, but as far as I know, most manufacturers advise not to load them above 250bar.
In any case, the higher the pressure, the smaller the number of useful fills. One way is so-called tethering, when you shoot with a bottle directly attached to the air rifle. Or to buy as big bottle as possible.
PS. Some specialized high-pressure cylinders may be rated for higher pressures, up to 450 bar or even more, but you have to sell your car first to buy one.

Great
For filling cylinder up to 300bar, just contact @wooyadeen and everything will be settled up fast and easy.


Am i going in the right direction with these and is this all i will need to connect the cylinder to the air tank or do i need more or would you recommend something else.
sorry for so many questions
 
Well, I have the same cylinder for three years now and haven't had any problems until now. However, some say that carbon cylinders are more sensitive to damage and less safe than steel ones. Feel free to ask wooyadeen about the details, and other members can also write their thoughts here.
We've written a lot on this Forum about carbon and steel cylinders, but I know it's a bit more complicated for you to search the Forum, so I ask everyone who wants to write their opinion here. I personally do not see any problem with using carbon cylinders that are on legal sale.

Im thinking it will be great solution i have no fear of carbon personally and it probably has a steel liner, and is that the correct connector directly to pcp nozzle ?
