I have a palode cordless framer – manufacturer says it shoots a box of nails per can of gas, but I’ve never gotten more than half that. Has anybody else been counting? I love the gun more often than I hate it…

I love my paslode too. I've never come close to a box of nails per can of fuel. I have no idea where they came up with stat.
The only stats. I've ever seen on the amount of nails a cylinder will shoot is approx.
1200 to 1400 nails
What I read is that under optimal conditions... 1200/fuewl cell and the trimmer to get 4000/fuel cell.
The trimmer comes closer because interior conditions are closer to optimal.
Cold weather makes for bad firing
Each time you depress the tip you discharge gas too even if you don't pull the trigger
And older fuel cells will lose presure.
