    Operating Pressure for Autocockers

    I have a '99 autococker with an Air America Vigilante Regulator and I run Co2, and I was wondering what would be the best operating pressure to run on? I have a pressure gauge so i can view what i have my pressure set to.

    Best can be taken as highest gas effiency or something to do with ball velocity, etc.

    hmm

    kinda off topic but as i recall(correct me if im wrong) but i dont think u should run c02 through ur vigliante! but i think pressure for the autococker is like 150-300psi or somthin along those lines!

        well my friend who is a reliable source says his runs at 100psi
        Flashy colors make the gun work better!

          Well for 'cockers I would suggest this site:

          Adhesive dispensing systems for controlled application of glues, adhesives, chemicals and other assembly fluids


          100psi is a LP set up, most run 300 - 400ish..

            300 PSI is the normal. it can work up to 400 but the pressure will cause the valve to close too fast and get lower velocity.

              You should really sweet spot your autococker..
              this would find the optimal input pressure for your gun that would result in the most efficient air usage and most consistent velocity for your current set up



              this is a good article on how to sweet spot your gun
