I can’t find much info on this pistol but seems to be the same as a regular bandit just comes with a regulator. Anybody have one or know how to adjust the regulator? Right now I’m barely getting 10 shots from a full fill. Was wanting to lower the power and use as a plinker.

PP800R regulator adjustment
Hello, I'm new to this place and PCP guns. I just got my first PCP pistol, a Snowpeak PP800R, same as Diana Bandit, in .177 and it's supposed to have a built-in pressure regulator. It starts off with 260 m/sek (850 fps) with 5 grain pellets, but in the yellow part of the pressure scale after...

It uses this regulator. I bought one but wasn't satisfied with the power output even at max. My Bandit is a .25 though. I used a long pair of forceps to pull it out for adjustment.

I have a PP800R. Got it from Wes . Had him tune it to 35 shots at 500fps. Either his or my chronic is off but according to my chronic I’m getting about 540 fps plus or minus 10 fps. Boringly accurate at 25 yds Put a full Buckrail kit on it. I bought it as a winter replacement for my Chaser. Highly recommend the pistol and buying from Wes at Airgun Archery Fun in Canada. Shipping was reasonable and only took about a week to Maine. He shipped in 2 days from my order.

That’s what I am looking to do with it since it’s only getting 10 maybe 12 shots off a full fill. I got the buckrail kit as well but unfortunately the stock tube keeps breaking off even though it slides in easily to the back of the gun. I don’t know what the deal is with that but one broke off while extending the butt stock and one broke while screwing it in.

That’s a ton of shots but I want to keep mine a little lower powered and not bottle it. I’m a hand pumper so pumping a bottle would be exhausting lol

It's a .25 barrel from Wes at Airgun Archery Fun. It has a carbon fiber tube slid over it. I'm waiting on parts so it's a work in progress. I'm shooting my 27 grain cast pellets mainly.

Hello @fatmatic
The pistol that I received is a Snowpeak 800R and I barely can get 8 shots out of a fill. I am doing a bit of research to see what adjustment can be done to improve the shot count. If that fails, I will simply remove the regulator.

That may be the answer, keep me updated. I am rethinking this pistol, it doesnt really fit my needs unless I can get it adjusted
