try it and see for yourself. The cylinder will not fill up fast enough.

I know a cylinder with 60psi slamming it back and forth looks fast, but not compaired to something like pulling a spring back and letting it go.

By precharging the cylinder, blocked half way, you are creating an air-spring. scroll back up and look at the drawing in post #9 in this thread.
