Shot count estimates will vary depending on marker type, weather conditions, firing mode, regulator tuning, and air fill quality. Why Upgrade from CO2 to HPA? Compressed air systems (HPA) provide more consistent performance than CO2 because they maintain stable pressure across varying temperatures and firing speeds.  More consistent velocity Improved accuracy and shot consistency Better cold-weather performance Reduced pressure spikes during rapid fire Recommended or required for many electronic paintball markers Important Tank Shipping Notice ALL paintball tanks ship EMPTY to comply with Department of Transportation safety regulations and must be filled prior to use. Paintball HPA tanks require high-pressure compressed air fill equipment rated for 3000 PSI systems. Standard home or shop air compressors cannot properly fill paintball HPA tanks.  Find Local HPA Tank Filling Services 🗺️ Most players fill compressed air tanks at: Paintball fields Local paintball stores Sporting goods stores SCUBA and compressed air service shops Need help finding a fill station?Use our HPA Fill Finder before game day.

How to Read Your Tank Hydro Date Every paintball HPA tank includes a stamped manufacture or hydrostatic test date on the tank bottle. This date is commonly called the “hydro date.” Example: 03 ◇ 25 = Manufactured or tested in March 2025 Aluminum HPA tanks typically require hydro testing every 5 years The stamped date is NOT the expiration date Tanks that are out of hydro may not be filled by paintball fields or fill stations until they are re-tested. Fresh hydro dates are guaranteed on all new Maddog HPA tanks. Expect tank dates within up to 1 year of their manufactured date.
