local dive shops i have found to be the best places to go they seem to be alot cheaper than gun shops, have you tried going to a local fire station most of them have fixed compressors for the breathing apperatus and alot of fire services offer additional services at negligable cost to supliment the brigade income, i work for a fire service and they would have been happy to fill mine but they would only fill a cylinder not just a rifle, and unfortunatly i dont have a cylinder just a hills stirup pump.
Don't care what anybody says. They are making big profits on that air.
Where we go, any BOTTLE, any SIZE, any BAR. £2.
Gun shops should do it for cheap, as a service. For the simple fact it brings shooters INTO their shop. One week they might just want a fill, next time they might want a fill and a new scope. Simple common buisness sense.

£4.50 at my local gun shop for my 12ltr tank but it goes a long way..![]()
£5 for my 12l 300bar bottle,only £3 if there is over 150 bar in the bottle when filling starts.Afull bottle lasts me a yr as i only need 1700psi for 11.2ftlbany more tha 1700 psi and the hammer does not open the main valve,most of the extra pressure goes out through the blow off valve.All machined by a good mate of mine and fits straight onto the buddy bottle.
