Snowpeak Max 1 -- I'm drooling

[jakeb]

Shot the MAX .22 this AM.
Fill gauge reads 250 bar but tank gauge reads 300 bar(just filled). Not sure what’s going on with that. Reg set at 210 bar(not sure how accurate that is).

Just looked at it and it doesn’t appear to be the common moderator thread size. The short moderator chamber didn’t want to screw off easily but states in the manual-removable moderator. I’m going to pad it and hope that does it for me.

Thanks. Its a real odd ball isn't it.

Mine was the same way. I read and re-read the scanty instructions, and it seems that, after dumping all the air through the bleed valve, the regulator adjustment is already bottomed out, thus I cannot adjust it any lower than 210bar. I was hoping to lower the reg a bit. I emailed Wes, just waiting for a reply on it.

Hey Jay,
After shooting and filling several times, the pressure gauge is working better. The reg might just need to be broken in.

Turns out I was trying to adjust the incorrect fitting. I did not see the correct brass fitting which is located under the trigger guard. Wes corrected me, and all is well.
