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

    Most mag users don't use braided line.

    Those that do use it, use it for nostalgic reasons. The macro line I linked is rated for 1k working and 3 k burst. I've had it up to 2k with no issues. I'm going to run it all day at that pressure next time I'm on the field just to prove it's not a hazard. You guys that are having issues need to get quality line and not the $1 a foot crap they sell on Flea-Bay

            I use macro line on my Micromags because I've owned more Micros than you could count on your fingers and toes, and about 90% of the ones I've picked up used had serious wear as the result of carelessness with SS line, wrenches, and quick-connects. I'd like to thing I'm more careful than that, but it doesn't hurt to be safe and the only Micros I have left are the creme de la creme of those I've owned... Plus I only run 900psi through my classics.

            Now SS bodied mags, that's a different story. Hand me a Minimag with 3' of SS line from the foregrip looped around the powerfeed and a proconnect to the valve, and I'm good to go. Toss on a 20oz c02 tank, an Indian Springs loader full of 4 month old Marbalizer, and a my old Vents Predators, and it might as well be 1995 again

                Where is a good place that I can pick up steel braided line for a good price?
