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

Not really enough information. Why do you want that high of
pressure?
Pressures over 60psi is not recommended for residential use. Makes
for excessive strain/wear on fixtures and gives no real benefit. If
the pressure tank were much lower than the residence, then you might
need to have a higher pressure there than at the house. You lose .43
psi per foot elevation difference.
