I am interested in buying my own dive tank (for when i get my new marker), however i need to know how much a 12 ltr 300bar tank including fill station is likely to cost. Also can anyone recommend places in the UK to buy them from?

A dive shop will be the best place to get the fill rig..waaaay cheaper than a paintball store (like half the cost) for the tank probably small ads in a diving section of LOOT or similar although apparently 300 bar tanks aren't widely used in diving (according to the store that refills my tank) email me and I'll send you the phone number of the store I got my fill rig from.

Bad idea, it is cheaper to just get it filled at the field. It would take you a long time for that to pay off. My dad is a registered diver and we have like 6 tanks. I can get about 3 fills from a 3500 psi scuba tank into my 3000 psi 68cu in tank before the pressure drops below 2500 in the scuba tank. Plus it is hard as hell to drag it to the field.

If you want a tank 300 bar that will only fill guns, (only have to have it tested every 5 years instead of 3) London paintball Supplies will help you out.
Helpful guys, Chris or Jon, depends if you have a 3000 psi tank or a 4500psi though.
It isn't cheap but 300 bar tanks are hard to find these days and having you own fill is so much more convenient.
12ltr refills cost about £2.50 a go.
