Default Well Water Pressure higher then 60PSI?

So I have a Pump that can produce more then the typical 60PSI @

When looking for a Pressure tank I only see ones that have a 40/60 PSI
range on them. * Though the Operating Pressure is like 110PSI. *What

High pressure is hard on everything, 50 should be enough to live with.
I would not want 110lb pressure and a 30gpm leak when I wasnt home, or
at home. 43000 gpd will fill a pool-basement quickly.
