          ...That is one reason why I got rid of my 2 mags (RT PRO/Custom E-mag)...

          ...and when I really riped on them it seemed like i needed a fill every 2 games since the gun starts to stop response around 1k psi...

          ...i guess thats why I am glad I can get through a full case on a 4k fill with my alias...

              I get 1700-1800 with my Spyder and 68/4500 before I get a case of the spurts.

              What is a typical count for a ULE, X valve, and level 10?

                a level 10 mag, should get about 650 off a 68/3000. Some get more some get less

                        level 10 is mostly at fault, I mean you instintly lose 800 psi just at the end of the tank.

                          its just the whole design. Thats one reasons why people dont buy things from them. My field only fills to 3000, so every other game I had to walk a 1/4 mile to get some air.
