    Air Consumption

    Okay. I am new to a Mag.

    I have a very nice E TacOne thanks to A Tach One and this weekend I got to shoot it for the first time in game play.

    I really like the feel of it and it performed great (other then the crappy old paint I was shooting)

    I was wondering what kind of air consumption I should be looking for. I am used to Cockers and my Viking and I am seeing it is no where in the ball park of these but what should it possibly be?

    I think the best I got was maybe 7 of the big Dye pods and a hopper out of a 68/45 fill (now it may have been more like 4k on the fill)

    Is that normal? I mean typically I dont carry more then 6 pods with me but i can carry 8 or 10 in my vest if needed (like for the final battles)

    Thanks for you response in advance.

    I'd say that's normal to better than average efficiency.

        I'm glad to hear it shot well for you, and need pics when that baby is complete. As far as air efficiency, I agree with the 2 previous responces. That is about right.

          Mags are gas hogs...
          I have a 92/4500 so I dont have to run down the hill to the feild office for a fill every two games. I get about 1200 rounds off of that.

            Well I guess once I get the Qbow mod installed I can always use my 114/45 that I use for my A5 LOL

            I guess I have been spoiled by my other markers LOL (14 pods and a hopper on a full 68/45 fill with my Viking)
