I think I've asked this before, but how many shots will I get out of:

1.) 68/3000
2.) 68/4500
3.) 88/3000
4.) 88/4500

With a ReTro valve?

I get between 800-950 shots from a 68ci 3000psi tank using the Retro valve. I can't help with the rest.

I can shoot 7 pods and my hopper with my Emag and 88/4500. I will have around 1500 psi left afterwards.

I heard it was a rule of thumb for 3k tanks at 10 shots per cubic inch so ~680 shots for a 68 c.i. tank. For my raptor 4.5k 68 c.i. i can get WELL over 1000 shots.(on a cocker)

I got a 68/4500 Nitroduck. I never counted exactly but a estimated figure I put out was about 1200+ and still with some air left. Again, an estimated figure.

"How many shots will your get? 3000psi tanks deliver about 10 shots per cubic inch (68ci = 680 shots, 47ci = 470 shots, 88ci = 880 shots, 114ci = 1140 shots). 4500psi tanks can deliver 15 shots per inch (68ci = 1020 shots, 88ci = 1320 shots, 114ci = 1720 shots). Now of course these figures vary with each gun, in most cases, they are a bit higher, but the shot count of your paintball guns depends on the setup you are using."

Thanks to PBGear for having something useful :)
