The most popular tank size is 1,100 cubic centimetres (67 cu in) at 31,000 kPa (4,500 psi) providing 800–1100 shots. HPA tanks are more expensive because they must accommodate very high pressures. They are manufactured as steel, aluminium or wrapped carbon fiber tanks, the latter being the most expensive and most lightweight.

Within firearms, chamber pressure is the pressure exerted by a cartridge case's outside walls on the inside of a firearm's chamber when the cartridge is fired. The SI unit for chamber pressure is the megapascal (MPa), while the American SAAMI uses the pound per square inch (psi, symbol lbf/in 2) and the European CIP uses bar (1 bar is equal to 0.1 MPa).
Walther LG300 AluTech PCP match air rifle. The Walther LG300 is a pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) air rifle designed for 10 metre air rifle match shooting. The rifle uses dehumidified compressed air as propellant for the diabolo air gun pellets .
The total volume of the tank is V t. Case 2 is a tank in use, with the air pressure at pressure P (gauge) and a water volume of V. Referring to the diagram on the right, a pressure tank is generally pressurized when empty with a "charging pressure" P c, which is usually about 2 psi below the turn-on pressure P lo (Case 1).
The .450/400 Nitro Express is a Nitro Express rifle cartridge that is produced in three case lengths: 2 3 ⁄ 8-inches, 3 inches and 3 1 ⁄ 4-inches, [2] and is intended for use in single shot and double rifles. The 3-inch and 3 1 ⁄ 4-inch versions are considered classic Nitro Express cartridges.
The .450 Bushmaster is descended from the Thumper concept popularized by the gun writer Jeff Cooper.Cooper was dissatisfied with the small-diameter 5.56×45mm NATO (.223 Remington) of the AR-15, and envisioned a need for a large bore (.44 cal or greater) cartridge in a semi-automatic rifle to provide one-shot kills on big-game animals at 250 yards.
In the 1950s through 1970s, a mixture of 63% hydrazine, 32% hydrazine nitrate and 5% water was used in experimental 37mm gun firings and later in 120mm gun firings. The 32% hydrazine nitrate mixture was selected by extensive experiments to have a notably flat pressure profile, increasing gun safety.
