Spyder MR1 Paintball?

Question

I have a Spyder MR1 Paintball gun, and a 12 oz. Co2 tank, and I was wondering about how many paintballs can I shoot with a 12 oz. tank?

Answer 1

The general rule for number of shots per oz of Co2 is:

50 shots per oz of Co2 on a 75 degree day.

Therefore, 600 shots.

Spyders are simple blowbacks and not very gas efficient.

My specialty 48oz Co2 tanks only last about 2400 shots.

Answer 2

You should be able to shoot about 1000-1200 shots from a 12oz tank. Spyders are pretty air efficient, so you may get a few more. I dont remember exactly how many it was, but that estimate should be close, I dont really use my spyders anymore, and I now use HPA.

Answer 3

i have a spyder mr1 which sucks but now i have a proto slg olive with olive tank cover your tank probably lasts for 2000 paintballs if your hopper holds 200 paintballs

Answer 4

well depends u could unload for like 3 hours or so and it would run out but if ur serious about paintballin buy a 24 oz
