I updated the Wiki page after watching Walcom's video and playing with mine a bit. X-Shot darts are the perfect length, and work perfectly if you just shoot at the ceiling.

But since they lack bigger-diameter suction-cup heads, they'll go right past the dart-retention barb and fall out the right-side single-dart feeding hole if you point it downward or shake it too much (which is inevitable since it's a HAMP-feeder!)

There are no follower springs in the cylinders; darts are pushed forward by a long multi-toothed bar that, on a forward pump, rises up towards the open groove in the bottommost cylinder to catch the follower, and then slides forward one dart length. So it's not a very smooth prime, but you're not propelling the dart with it, you're just feeding it into the flywheels, so it's not too bad.
