secretagentmole 1,701 Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 Had to sell the SuperTen. Money got very tight. But got something better to replace it. Who doesn't love a Winchester action? And I am committing heresy against myself. I now own A Diana!!! Made when I was 12 years old.... An Original 45, made in 1981, but not in the usual calibre you would suspect. Not .177 or .22 but the one in the middle, I have a twenty cal... 8 Quote Link to post

Is it 230 or 300 bar? Tried topping up from 240 to 300 bar. Took about 20 minutes. I have a 300 bar 12 litre bottle. The system has 2 filters on it after it leaves the compressor. One has a molecular sieve in it, that came from Amazon for £25, the other is the filter that same with the machine and has a cotton fibre plug filter (also known as tampon type). No oil or water made it to the second filter. After the bottle cooled it has 290 bar in it. Edited March 31, 2020 by secretagentmole Added airmega filter photo 1 Quote Link to post

Might get one myself as I have three pcp’s now and an empty slot for another. Quote Link to post

Plus a decanting coupling. 1 Quote Link to post
secretagentmole 1,701 Posted March 31, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 The saving comes from 1) not having my gauge on my bottle constantly knackered by the person filling it, 2) not having to travel 80 miles to get it filled (there and back twice), 3) having to time my air needs to when they are filling 4) actually getting a full fill.

Dervburner 2,548 Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 Yerr, I think I might have a look into these. My bottle is out of test now so I’ve got that to sort as well. Quote Link to post
