    What are the high flow tanks on the market right now?

    I've heard the Max flo, mac dev conquest, as well as some nitroduck, crossfire, and centerflag tanks are really high flow.

    I'm getting a viking and I want a 45/4500 tank. What does everyone recommend? I will only be willing to spend a max of $250 on the tank, cheaper is better if the performance lost isn't too bad.

    Well my 45/4500 flatline kept up with my emag doing f/a @ 20 bps with no skipping at all. Ask Miscue he shot it at the NorCal vs SoCal meet.

        Flatline is ultra consistent, but gives me bad reactivity.

            if your buying a viking, buy a conquest, very high flow and low pressure, perfect for ya

              Crossfire more perfect!!!

              Go to an event and watch them demo tanks you'll be set on Crossfire fastest recharge rates and super consistent (you'll have a Sidewinder down stream so don't worry).

              Trust me I've owned 2Crossfire tanks, I've used them on my Nasty Impulse, Xmag, Dark Angel, NYX Matrix, and Bushmaster, NEVER a single problem, in anyway. My friends have used them on Vikings, DM4s, Speeds, and A4s never a problem I've heard with a Crossfire tank. Their your best bet always

                Thanks. I'm getting a viking or an angel speed. Not sure if that changes anything. Let me know.

                  What output PSI should I get for a crossfire preset tank?

                  I will be getting an angel speed or viking. Should I go with the lower output? 450psi?

                  Thanks for your help. I'm sold on the crossfire, I've heard good things from them elsewhere as well.

                    Haven't had much experience with some of the other tanks, but my Crossfire keeps up no problem.

                    I think you will have a hard time finding any nitrogen tank you can outshoot now a days.

                      Stick with 800psi you can use them on any marker and 450psi doesn't give any great benefits if any.

                        No don't stick with 800psi.

                        I have an Angel Speed, if you put a volumizer on it you'll have problems chronoing under 300fps. Plus you'll waste lots of air.

                        450psi output is what you want. The manual recomends 400psi output and The Angel Guy recomends 500psi... so 450psi seems about right, lol

                          My friend owns a Speed with the largest volumizer on it. He has no problems chornoing under 300fps (are feilds are indoor 250fps) and his preassure is most likely around 180psi. Also how will you be wasting air?...

                          400psi also isn't a good idea with a Speed without a volumizer since its a pretty well known fact that you want 200psi between regulators to prevent shootdown.

                            If you have the money, its woth springing for an adjustable tank.
