Rule of thumb-

10 shots / cubic inch on a 3000psi system
15 shots / cubic inch on a 4500psi system

Keep in mind, this is a ROUGH estimate. Your mileage will vary.

that math is very rough. dry firing, you will loose almost half of your efficency. i barely got 4 pods on my 68/3000 before i got my 68/4500 tank.

See, on a mag, if you fire with paint, you keep about 50psi left in the dump chamber. Dry firing, you expell it all.
