has anyone turned this pistol down FPE /FPS and how low can it go ? looking to tune down to 10 FPE or a little less ?

That should not be a issue.
Mine does about 11.5FPe
You can easily adjust the hammerspring.
That should be enough.
You can also lower the regulator pressure or the transferport.
I would start by just adjust the hamerspring, therefore you must remove the grip.
It is a very great pistol!

My .177 was producing about 12fpe in stock form. I wanted to take it down to something closer to 8fpe for a more useful shot count and acceptable muzzle report but the regulator did not like it so I re-stacked the Bellevilles from a 2P5S )) (( )) (( )) to a 9S ) ( ) ( ) ( ) ( )
I ended up taking it down to about 560fps with 9.3gr RWS Supermags (6.5fpe) where it gets about 80 shots per fill. It made for a fun plinking gun with remarkable accuracy lobbing those heavy wadcutters
With the .22 cal, a similar state of tune would equate to something closer to 9.5fpe for 55 shots, just ballparking it.
If you're interested, here is a lengthy writeup I did about dealing with the regulator idiosyncracies

I'm pretty sure I might need one of these in .177 with a muzzle device in the not far distant future.
In stock form it looks like it can be easily shot as a pistol two or one handed?

I have a .22 caliber Canadian PP750 (similar to the PP700) that's limited (by law) to 500 fps which yields around 8.8 fpe.
It shoots fine at that power level.
Cheers!

The original regulator in mine PP700S-A works excellent. So in all my Snowpeak/Artemis guns.

As far as I know, the guts of the two are the same with the PP750 "upgraded" to have a (Non-functional) magazine and an extendable stock.

The guns are totally different. Nothing is the same.
I own both.
The PP700S-A is the better pistol.

I got both and your not the 1st to tell me the 700 is a better pistol, But I don't see it, My 750 has the 2 inch longer barrel, Still fits in the shroud, Maybe thats why I call them even, Never even shot the shorter barrel,,,

Wish they still had those 10.5” barrels available still but I can’t seem to find them in stock anywhere. I love my new Artemis PP750 with sidelever kit but would also like to try out the sister gun aka PP700S-A, I don’t mind a single shot airgun as long as the rest of it is working properly and in good order.

I turned my HS down and get about 30 shots . I'm sure it could be tuned better but it shoots well .
Wanted to add that I'm pretty sure it was 2 full turns out on the HS .
