    Like i said. I have a Qloaded ULE Emag w/ Xvalve, LX, and Xmod 1.8. I just filled my tank up yesterday and i was playing around today and i couldn't have shot more than 200 times and i'm already empty
    HELP!?!?!?

    Sincerely,

            Were you shooting paint or just dry firing?

                Yes it does. Dry firing uses way more air than shooting paint.

                  Far more than you think. Expect horrible efficiency when dry, like 1/4-5 the shots from your tank.

                      Dry-firing shouldn't be the sole problem. I think getting 1/4 the shots cause of dry firing is way way off. I'd say about 2/3 the shots. Maybe something's broken inside your xvalve and its not regulating correctly... I dunno..
                      you know you play this game too much when the neighbors stop fixing their broken windows...

                        Did the guys that filled your tank use your gauge on the tank, or do they have a gauge that they fill by? Your tank gauge may be bad.
                        WOW, sigs. Havent seen these in a while here on AO.

                          You lost count due to the speed off the mag. Seriously I have no idea sometimes where them paintball have gone. One second the halo is full and the next it's empty.

                          Really dry firing kills the air rapidly.
