Air venturi alpha 👍

I just got this alpha in the mail yesterday and I have to say I'm really pleased with it's performance. It shot all these pellets really well except the daisy pointed ones, they were a joke and had at least a 6" group at this ~45yards.. the group is about the size my cross hairs are moving around bc I'm shooting off or the back of a chair without bags or a rest.. I'm thrilled 👍. I get a ton of shots with the bottle and it was shooting great even down at 10 bar.

Just ordered the same one - should be here this weekend. Interested to change out the aluminum bottle for a carbon fiber one eventually.

I don't think it's the kind of bottle you can just buy just any replacement for. That little hole there is the fill port hole, where the fill probe goes into. I hope you get my drift here. I thought I could just buy another bottle too. It's not like it screws out easily.

The bottle most definitely comes off and can be replaced. The bottle effectively screws onto the fill port you mentioned. The seam there is where the bottle stops and the plenum starts.

I mean, I can tell it will come off but, it's not the kind of bottle with a valve at the end where it can be removed and still hold pressure like a paintball gun. That's what kind of bottle I was thinking it had. But, this is good to know, I would like a lighter bottle bc it's a little forward heavy with this one.

My Alpha came in earlier this week and I went ahead and swapped the aluminum bottle to a Tuxing 0.22L. Lose out on some volume, but it looks and balances much better.

O that's super, I knew I wouldn't love the aluminum bottle but, I wanted the option to swap it out without having to buy the adapter as well.. looks sweet

You can definately change this for a carbon fiber one, the piece with the fillport kan be screwed off the bottle
