Now this would be cool, for the CR600W (I think) pity it's in Portuguese :-) It relates to making an elongated 12 gram refillable cartridge (Just in case you don't like clicking on links :-)) A project for you lathe warriors :-) A.

Thanks Mike, good to know. It was the idea of having a co2 cartridge that would fit the equivalent size of the three 12 gram ones, that was refillable that appealed to me. I'll investigate more :-) Cheers A.

I would bulk fill it, I did this to a crossman 1077 a while back and the consistency was awesome. I used a paintball bottle then tried HPA with a 850psi regulator (co2 runs at around 750-800psi) I probably crossed the boundary of legality as it turned it into a pcp but the consistency per shot was so much better even over the bulk c02

CCheers, I'm still new to all this, and conditioned to try and get things to work to the max :-) The issue is acquiring a bottle that would fit into the CR600W bottle sheath (not sure what it's called,) Would a paintball bottle be that shape? Cheers A.

I made a dummy co2 canister out of solid aluminum that had a 1/8 bsp thread in the side for a HPA quick release to thread into. You would need to drill into the stock and the canister tube for the quick release nipple to come out. A paint ball remote line then connects between the bottle and quick release.

I havent done it, but I believe the best way is to have a hose running to a larger bottle. This would be tapped into a adapted fitting to sit where the small canisters go now. Search Gmac customs. Billbobnz has a good suggestion too.

I still like the idea the guy in the YouTube video has, just not sure of the pros & cons of it.
