Thank you for the video. I had been shooting 70 shots per CO2 when I came to this video to see if I was wasting much gas. I mainly shoot cans, and at 70 shots some are starting to bounce back rather than penetrate or glance off. I think based on your results, I will continue to shoot about 70/cartridge.
Good video. I just bought one of these..great guns! I found exactly the same...around 50 shots on a chilly day outdoors. All deadly powerful and accurate!
I have a Beretta Px4 pellet gun. It uses 12 gram co2 cartridges shooting .177 pellets. At around 12 to 16 degree Celsius I get between 64 to 70 shots per cartridge. It begins to weaken at around 56 shots. From other videos I have seen it stated that a typical 12 gram co2 cartridge can get anywhere from 30 to 100 shots per cartridge. I was wondering if you where to warm up a co2 cartridge on a cold day lets say by using a car heating system set around 26 degree Celsius for about 45 minutes which by the way the recommended temperature limit on the packaging is 48 degree Celsius or 120 degree Fahrenheit to prevent it from exploding how long would the co2 cartridge take to cool down to outdoor temperatures? I would like to try to be able to get anywhere from 80 to 100 shots per cartridge which is the maximum limit.
Great video, Thanks! A clarification is required here for A N's comment... You need to consider that the 12g of CO2 in a cartridge is 12g of LIQUID CO2. The vapor pressure produced is related to the temperature of the cartridge. At 20C (~70F) the pressure is approximately 850 psi. If you shoot too rapidly, the expanding gas cools the cylinder too much and the vapor pressure declines. If you had a larger CO2 cartridge, the vapor pressure will be the same, however it will take longer to change temperature due to the added thermal mass of the cartridge/CO2. In summary, all CO2 cartridges will produce the same power in a gun on its first shot, or when allowed to recover for temperature change in the cartridge by extending the time between shots. The gun design, pellet size/quality, seals, maintenance etc. determines the power.

i get around 50-70 shots with crosman 12g co2 and crosman pointed .177. temp ~24C
Then do I change the co2 or take a break
I get about 40/50 power shots. After that they weaken considerably. Change co2 after 50 for sure

Any air gun is only as powerful as the co2 cartridge...12 grams is 12 grams in any air pistol
Great video, Thanks!

How many shots can u shoot with an co2 air rifle?
what scope mount do you have?
Gamo I get 80 if warm if cold I get 70 on co2s even with snow out.
I get 120 in cold weather an in warm I get 120
It sounds like your talking in a bathroom I can not understand what you are saying.
