        doc Z, I think your right about the 22 scope ring.
        automikey, do those hoppers work OK. The brass eagle ones, jam up pretty easy and I thought I might get a couple of those to try...Winchester's?
        How many shots out do you get out of those tanks?

            Hoppers work fine, I dremeled out a lip that is on the inside of the feedneck to help with feeding, and used part of a toggle bolt to make the lid hinge. Winchesters.

            On a Mag, I found that 750 psi shoots 50 balls. So a full tank at 3000 minus 750 (mag cutoff) gives you 2250 psi to use, which means 150 balls.

            Actually, I was playing last weekend and filling the tank to aroung 2200 psi (all my scuba tanks had) and I could get 1 hopper and 1 refill before running out of air.

            And running out of air meant... I had at least 3 surrenders that day, including a much applauded play where I dumped the rest of my hopper into my hand, rushed the bunker and threw the paintballs at a guy. Unfortunately that one didn't work, but it looked good.

              Thanks
              Most .22 scope rings will fit. I get mine from Cheeper Than Dirt.

                    I think that looks very nice. Much better than I thought. Maybe I was influanced by the getto remark above. Not getto at all if you ask me.

                      someone should make a VA for the front that allows you to screw a tank into the front under the barrel like the old VMs.
