Snowpeak Max 1 -- I'm drooling

Not sure what they opened them up to but the valve holes were 4mm. He commented on how the transfer port thru the mono block was small as well.
Yours is .22 or .25?
But ports smaller than the pellet/slug and a plenum. That is a weird design.

I'd have thought, given it is designed as a slug gun, the ports would be larger than caliber. Add in a couple 90° turns and that explains the lack of power with the factory settings.
 
Mine is .22. Ya first batch was an odd duck. Platform def has the ability to get there but they seemed to have nuetured it.

Here's the video. It's translated but they mistake valve for trigger.



Got another batch of the 35g peanut cast slugs from Sonny Slugs. Got them in 4 sizes and will do some testing this weekend hopefully.

Not sure there is any gun made in China I would drool over. I guess it could happen, probably not. Why does it not do what it is supposed to do out of the box?
It was supposed to be a dedicated slug gun with impressive amount of power.

Factory regulator setting ~190 bar it is mundane. 220 bar it is decent. Appears the ports are a bit small. Given the 6 month delay I'm guessing they adjusted the ports.

Nice features, plenum, 550cc air, big magazine (16 for .25), very accurate with pellets or slugs. Haven't played with the trigger, a little heavy from the factory but not bad.

Well put together, nothing loose or machined poorly.

Side Lever is smooth and fairly light pull.

Scope, air, ARCA, moderator and gun ~12lbs

M28x1 thread on end cap with no male threads external. Should have been a standard 1/2-20, no adapter needed.

Action is kinda crunchy sounding when fired with a ping.
