Paintball CO2 Tank Problem?

I recently bought a new A5. I played with it once..worked great. The other day i took it out for target practice and when i screwed the tank in it kept pressurizing. It made a really strange sound and the tank ran out it 30 shots. The week before i played and shot 300 Paintballs. I have a 20 oz tank.

If it is the same tank then most likely you are out of air. I can get anywhere from 300 to 800 shots out of a 20 ounce co2 tank. It depends on the weather. When it is humid you get less.

Tips to Improve Your Team Paintball Play

Paintball is the best possible simulation of real-world squad tactics. While joining the Army or the French Foreign Legion may put you in the thick of battle for real, a well run paintball match will provide the same excitement while keeping you safely out of the range of live munitions. When gearing up your paintball team for the next regional tournament, take some tips from the pros to improve your overall performance. Championship level paintball teams function well both as a team and as individuals. The keys to success are marksmanship, stealth, tactics, and communications.

Marksmanship is an individual skill that can be practiced off the paintball field by every team member. You will have the greatest success improving your marksmanship if you simulate real-world conditions during practice. Practice first with stationary targets at various ranges to improve your overall comfort level with your individual gun. Once you are comfortable with your marker, continue practicing with moving targets outdoors. This will improve your ability to lead the target and get a hit under various wind conditions - especially if you prefer to play outdoor tournaments. Marksmanship is crucial to your overall team success - getting a hit with one shot improves your survivability on the field as you minimize your exposure to the other team.

Stealth is another crucial individual technique that can be practiced off field for paintball tournaments. Its important when practicing stealth techniques to wear the same clothing and boots that you would be wearing in an actual paintball tournament. Practice techniques such as low-crawling and high-crawling. Plan your cover ahead of time before moving. The more you practice, the more battlefield movement techniques will become second nature. Such practice also will give you a good workout to improve your physical stamina during a paintball match.

Anyone who has ever experienced the fog of war understands that communications on the battlefield is key to survival and triumph. For a team to work well together, they must be able to communicate and know each others positions at all times. Your team should develop a system of hand and arm signals to communicate with each other on the field. Using hand and arm signals will also aid in keeping your team's movement stealthy. Its up to you whether your decide to use standard Army signals or develop something more personal to your team. Either way, make sure that every member of the team understands each signal and has rehearsed enough that they come automatically.

Paintball team tournaments are an exciting way to take your play to a whole new level. Ensure that your team is competitive by practicing off field and improving these three crucial areas of basic squad tactics. Improving marksmanship, stealth, and the ability to quickly and quietly communicate with one another on the paintball field will help ensure your team's success in the next tournament. As always, when practicing as a team be sure to exercise common sense and use appropriate safety practices. When possible, simulate real-world environments by wearing your paintball gear during team practices.
