The shot regulation on both the pistol and the rifles at 300 bar is to the same pressure for a shot as at 200 bar, the only advantage with 300 is you get more shots between fills if you fill to 300, we often only refill our rifles to 200 because often thats all there is available. With the cylinder full my Wifes rifle did 3 sixty shot matches and a final at the British Championships this week end, the cylinder was just below 200 at the start of the last one and lasted safely through the last match with some to spare.
Zooma is spot on why Walther have gone to 200 on their new LP400, it is purely to reduce the weight of the cylinder to improve the weight distribution.
We have a Tesra club pistol which is near enough an LP300 (designed by the same man) and its an excellent pistol.
Good shooting
