    How many shots from a CO2 cart?

    Hi guys

    How many shots would you expect to get from a CO2 cartridge in a 177 Berretta pistol. Roughly....

    Thanks

    Hi it does vary depending on temperature and make of co2, I would say 7-8 it's better to waste a tiny amount of Co2, than to end up with a jam up.
    Fancy shooting your air pistols & rifles a bit more, then guy's & gal's come visit us at the
    UBC for loads of fun competitions for all types of air pistols and rifles.

    I spent some quality time on the pistol range at the BFTO with my Beretta yesterday. I would say no more than eight mags but if you've been rapid firing it's even less than that. I wish they were more powerful, I was getting ricochets the whole time I was shooting.

    Have you noticed that when you lock the hammer back and fire single action you get a far more powerful shot. I wish it would work that way on double action. Is there any way to replace the hammer spring with a stronger one? I'd rather get less shots and more power and consistency.

    Yeah I know but even rifle people know B all about pistols.....
