Ok, I'm showing in the $400's to get that high. The regulator I got, a
victor 0871-0044, 5-125 psig is $146.

What I am going to use this for is to fill tires and service the strut
at my powerless tiedown location. The price difference covers that
the strut pump costs:

Besides I assume also having the correct fittings I need for the
scheader valve.
So it seems the way to go is stay with the low pressure system I have
for tires, then use the strut pump to multiply pressure to get that
done, which is a less frequent event.
Have I missed anything?

Expensive.
My set up costs:
Bottle of Nitrogen is about $100
A set of victor guages that the refirgeration guys use is about $110. 0-600
PSI on the low side.
$13 for the gooseneck to fit the schrader valve and $25 to have a long
hi-pressure hose made.
Keep in mind that it a takes high pressure to force the schrader's needle
valve open.
