Sounds spot on Kev - you happen to know what they weigh with a valve fitted??

628g
but as said he got them in to fit some MFR valves he had made that came with a different thread.

280-380-400-500

So far the 280cc seems to be the most popular and it does give a decent shot count with lighter weight than the larger aluminium bottles

I have three 480cc Inocom bottles, one on my mk2 and two with customised BSA valves for my FAC.
And I have a couple of aluminium 400s that go on my mk1s.

I also have 200, 280 and 500cc bottles in the cupboard but as the 480s weigh pretty much the same as 280s and the 500s are weighty lumps.....they are just spares.

you want to sell the 200 bottle
Rapid 7 Mk2 FAC 30ftps + Tasco 3-9x50 AG + Kevg Mod
Rapid 7 Mk1 + NV008 LRF + Nutshot Mod
Ruger 10-22 + Tasco 3-9x50 AG Scope + Gen3 PVS14
CZ 17 HMR + Iray Rico RL42 Thermal Scope
Howa 1500 Short Action 223 + T-Pro 55-6-12 Thermal Scope

I've also got some of Bobs 380 bottles. very good they are to  KevG
Are these still available - nothing on the website?   Yes, i could ask him, but don't want to keep badgering him for every little thing   ;D

So far the 280cc is still the most popular but closely followed by the 400cc 👍

I mostly use 280cc with MFR valves as I find the rapids handle a lot better with them,
however if I'm expecting more shots than normal I'll stick a 400 on, as an aside best fittings do 400cc MFR valves.

Looks like the 400cc has taken the lead ...

do you think it might be because the 400cc is alot more accessible? the 280cc seems harder to find

 Always preferred the 280 but seem to favour the 400 these days
