Does anyone know if the ratworks cylinder has a larger capacity/higher shot count like the a&m, or is it the same capacity as a standard cylinder but lighter in weight. I’m thinking that the ratworks cylinder is the same outside diameter as the original standard cylinder,whereas the a&m is larger?

I don't know anything about the Ratworks cylinder but, the A&M one is wider - you have to remove the O ring from the HW100 barrel band to slide it through.

The rat works are the same diameter and if you have the tune and reg from them then you can fill to 250 bar , that will give probably 50% more shots

I must admit the air gauge on the Ratworks cylinder is better to read, I just don't quite see what to look at on the A&M cylinder.
