My son returned from the Sig Proshop with 2 MCX air rifles and a bunch of pellets, but they were out of 88-90 gr cartridges.

Before ya all freek out we already own a Sig 716DMR, 2 P320s, and 3 P938s.
The air rifles are for plunking around without alarming the neighbors.

Our problem is finding 88-90 gr cartridges.
We have ordered 12 from Amazon but they will not be delivered until late next week.

Does anyone have a suggestion?
Any experience with refillables?
 
I have many airguns but none that require the 90's. Some use dual 12's. Besides going the refillable route, have you looked into an adaptor for common 12 gr in case you run short?
 
Check with bike shops, tire inflating tools use CO2 cartridges. Not sure of exact sizes but some are quite large.
 
Can you modify it to use a bigger tank? Something the size of a scuba tank, you could throw it on your back and shoot all day.
 
You could stick a 12oz tank adapter on the rear and find the little butt plate adapter that fits on the tank.

Then you put something like this on the end of the 12oz tank

Another option is to buy a refillable tank and modify the current stock to fit the refillable tank.


Also see if one of these systems could be retrofitted to your gun..
The tank system with the remote fill are good if you buy a large 20lb tank.

I think #8 could be made to work.
