HPA from a paintball tank?

I am looking to get a cheap HPA paintball tank to fill a benjamin discovery. My problem is that paintball tank regulators only put out 850 psi, not the 2000 i need. Is there a place that sells 2000 psi output regulator for a decent price? Or would i be better off buying a small scuba tank such as a 30cf.

Get a Ninja reg w/ tank, rebuild kit and 3K burst disk. Add all the shim washers and you'll blow the 1.8K burst disk. It does the same thing and it's alot cheaper. Tank w/ reg, rebuild kit abd BD less than $75.00 from

John is correct.... I have an 80cf scuba tank and once filled I will get around 60 fills for my discovery rifles at 2000 psi.
I picked up my tank used for $100 bucks. Best $100 bucks I ever spent

Found out my uncle has two 80cf scuba tanks sitting in my grandmas garage. I will try to get one of those.
