I've been reading about all the pneumatics and keeping one pump in them. What about PCP's? I keep mine pumped up all the time. Will this hurt it? It hasn't seemed to bother it yet, but I am curious as to shoertening the life of my rifle.

My talon says it is meant to hold 3000 psi in its tank indefinitely. So I'll trust that keeping it full won't hurt it. but worst case scenario, I have to get a new tank down the road. An easy replacement part.

yea, it has only been fully discharged once since i bought it, and that was for the move north.

when i get done shooting for the day, i top it off and in the case it goes.
