That's just super constructive of you.Uhh, I really don't want to sound like I'm making fun of you because you're new, and trying to make myself sound cool for making fun of you, but that had to be one of the stupidest questions ever asked.

He means properly glued PVC can hold a LOT more air pressure than you're pump can create. Like 300 PSI or so. You're not going to get much above 150 PSI with any bike pump or anything AFAIK.What did that mean? My pump works fine, it's just that the tank is rather fragile.

Eh, it's all a matter of dart balance. Notice that an Airjet Micro dart (Red foam, black, non-whistling tip) can stay completely accurate in even a powerful gun, despite its incredibly light weight. This is because of the balance of weight between the tip and body, not just because of the tip weight itself.Not to mention the weight required to keep a stefan steady at that pressure. Oh and non-drilled stefans can take that pressure I think.
Speaking of which, I've made Micro and Zero darts with only one BB, and after drilling out the back with ("Newbiish, I'm sure someone will say) a Wendy's straw (Or equivilent diameter plastic straw). Any larger diameter than that and it instantly rips apart in high-powered air guns. So, lighter dart, perfect accuracy, the only problem is a 10ft range drop versus those with 1/4" Slingshot weights. I wonder why... Perhaps because of the reduced force and momentum, versus the forces of wind resistance, due to a lower mass?
As to the bursting at 150psi, yeah, those drilled darts probably wouldn't take it. So this post was solely a plug for making ligher ammo. For that, I'm sorry. ...Er... You dug up an old topic!! *points finger in cheesy attempt to shift shame*
