Any of you Texan .457 owners use a 6000 lb nitrogen tank to fill your needs? I was thinking of using the big nitrogen tank to fill my SCBA tank for bench use vs buying a compressor.
Big bore Texan and Nitrogen?

Here's some info in this link that might be of some help to you? I've been using the 6000 psi bottles since 2014.

Might want to invest in a Booster Pump as well. I just recently got mine. Don't know why I waited so long?

I use both, I use the bulk tank down to 4000 psi, then I feed the N2 to a YH compressor to top off 4 30 min scba tanks I take to the lease or range. You can read more about it here.

I looked into it, unfortunately I could not get a tank delivered to my location. If I bought my own bottle to have filled they could not guarantee I would get my own bottle back.

6k nitrogen tanks work great for ALL PCP's, but ease of access seems to vary regionally, often with different policies between different franchises of the same bulk gas provider. Be willing to set up an account, and have the flexibility to transport your own tanks in case they won't deliver to a residential address. You will need a suitable vehicle and a method of securing the tank if transporting your own....good luck.
