Might be better to go to 10punkt9 directly. Why pay a middleman.

Gwhite, I’m still unable to comment on the Tec-Rho/10punkt9 cylinder performance as we are STILL in lockdown here in Sydney!

However, light at the end of the tunnel. Should be shooting again in 2 to 3 weeks.

Pardon my ignorance. I am PCP newb. What exactly happening to these cylinders to make them "no go" after a certain period of time? My Daisy 599 rifle came with a cylinder with no expiration date specified. Is it just a formality or they actually physically deteriorate?

Rules !

Looks like the ISSF rule is 6.7.6.2g.

I suspect it's a general safety rule.

Pressure Vessel Law dictates that air cylinders in rhis class are end of lifed at 10 years......

The ISSF rules were to bring the organisation into compliance..... Don't listen to those that have a story different than this
