      I think macro is only rated at 800psi @75 degrees, or the hose could have came loose before you aired it up.

            This is why i don't trust macroline fully.
            Il n'y a point de sots si incommodes que ceux qui ont de l'esprit.

                If your going to buy some, get it right here. I guarantee this stuff won't blow on you.


                EDIT: Get the black hose. I had it at 2k yesterday testing my Geddon and shot 4 Dye lock lid tubes full of paint (600 rounds) with no issues.

                    Look more closely at the cart. 50' is $16 + $27 for a total of $43.

                      And even good stuff just sold for the wrong purpose.

                      I call the unrated cheap stuff marco-line.

                        Same thing happend to me once, but I had the gun up to my ear because I was looking for a leak, ruptured my ear drum. When it first happened I thought I was going to lose my ability to hear in that ear. Sounded louder than a shotgun.

                          Macroline should never be on a HP gun such as an automag. Only use steel braid grade or higher.

                          Macro is dangerous under alot of pressure.

                            ???? how is that? i ran macro on all my electros using the same 850 psi output tank i have now. Macro serves the same purpose here as it did there, it runs air from the asa to the regulator.

                              yeah, but remember that things have pressure ratings for a reason...

                              its that same reason that most mag owners use steel braid or stainless hard line.
