Snowpeak Artemis P15 5.5mm - location of hammer spring adjustment screw

[JMF87]

Good Afternoon all. I would like to know where the adjustment screw for the Artemis P15 is located at on the rifle? I would like to tinker a bit with fps with my current pellets (Hades 15.89gr) which is running at 834fps avg. I would like to possibly take it up up between 875fps and 925fps depending on what my pcp like. The reason for the adjustment is that this is my son's (6 year old) first rifle which he will shoot birds, meerkat and or rabbits with while we are on hunting farms, so he is not precise with his shot placements and I want to go up a few grains in pellet weight or even go to 21 gr slugs if he does miss the head, the impact would be great enough to humanely take the animal down.

Here is some 5 shot groups I took one evening at about 10 meters. The rifle was zeroed on 25 meters with the Hades.

lol thank you for thinking about me not getting into trouble and yes bagnall and kirkwood are like our local shop for missing part's, extra thing's etc, and to be honest with you I wouldn't want to buy a regulator from them, their not the best place, their everyone's go to for quickness really, although they do have some good thing's lol and she's now said it's the one with the plenum I suppose that shouldn't be a problem should it? well it must be OK if you're saying that's the way to go, thank you so much for responding to me and helping me out anyway you can

many thanks for you're help and getting back to me just out of curiosity are all the o ring's 2mm? I'm trying to look at that link you've sent me but it's not bringing anything up mate I'll keep trying, is it uk amazon by any chance? thank you.

You don't want 90 durometer O-rings. You want 70. Unless a P15 is very different from a P35 which I do not think is the case.

I posted a thread about my P35 O-ring assortment. It will not be completely correct for a P15 but my guess is many are the same.

Most. I don’t think the regulator orings are or the fill assembly threads. But that’s about it.

My plenum seal wouldnt hold until I put a 18-14-2 90 on it.

No problem. But I remember only having to ever change the valve housing orings, the tube/Plenum -gun connector 18-14-2. I know the interior threaded part of the tube connected tube side is over 2 the reg orings are over 2 and the gauge / fill port block are over 2 in width. Finding a diagram with all the parts listed for me wasn’t way back then. Maybe someone else can find them. The kit is mostly 2s and some 3s and some 1.5 in the smallest sizes. Or oem kit

At least 12cc id estimate 15-16cc

and yes, it most definitely should with the smaller one. 8.44 @ 1000fps is 18.75 Ft Lbs I would think 18-21 would be possible.


I think you'd be safer off getting the Smaller one. It will have AT LEAST the same exact energy output as your stock regulator(at the beginning when the stock reg was functional) 10.34 in the upper 900's. There is always the chance that your tube is stepped differently inside and that the XL might require extra machining. Not likely, but, always possible.

hi I've just been going through my messages and seen one where you mention,.. my tube might be stepped and may require machining? as I'm kind of new to this could you please tell me what it means lol, and the best way to clean a trigger because I've put a new stock on its seriously HARD to pull the trigger it's a 3d printed stock which explains abit, but the guy who sell's them hasn't had any complaints so..... I'm not sure, it seem's the whole gun is having a face lift lol many thank's, if you could help me out or even know someone that could that would be great

For the trigger it's likely you've tightened the stock too much, on the 15,35, and 35x if you tighten the screws that secure the stock to the gun too much it'll push the Trigger linkage bar and cause friction making it hard to pull. Try loosening the screws on the bottom a tiny bit or you can grind out or cut out a small channel to give the linkage arm more room.

The inside possibly being stepped shorter isn't likely, but its not unheard of. Very small chance, but it doesn't hurt to verify.

wow yeah that makes alot of sence to me, because it's a 3d stock I was thinking about sanding it down a bit and as for something being stepped i really appreciate you're help and all but I don't have a clue about that sort of thing lol, I've not long been in the hobby mate so there's much more for me to learn, thank you
