What PSI can a Big Salvo tank or a SMDTG trigger be taken up to (which ever one has a lower number)?

---or---

How many pumps can you take a MS up to with a plugged hornet pump? What about a plugged 2K pump? (If you give me the answer to one I can calculate how many the other one can pump).

I've had BS tanks and stock tubing up to 65-70 PSI repeatedly without any issues. The trigger should be able to handle that easily, but may become difficult to depress.

Thanks, do you know the answer to my second question? Or do you have it hooked up to a different kind of pump?

For your second question, it depends if you have modded the bladder to allow for more air capacity. Generally I'd recommend not going above 40 pumps with a 2k pump on a MS bladder. From what I've heard, they have quite a bit of variability when it comes to consistency of the bladders.

Okay, thanks dizzy. Now I'm gonna go convert that to hornet pumps...

Before you go do anything, make sure he's not talking about a Magstrike Bladder.

Oh, shit. You're right, that's probably what dizzy thought.

Ah, yes, I was referring to a Magstrike bladder, not a Marvelous Salvo. My mistake.
