Should have good power then, you could be losing pressure through the blow gun, normally pressure goes the other way to seal.

also how snug is the projectile in the barrel?

Your pilot volume looks huge. That doesn't help.

Agreed, try it like this and see if power improves:

Can the projectile roll down the barrel easily?

Do you have a system (like for example a magnet) to keep the projectile in the breech?

Sounds like the projectile to barrel fit is good.

If you take off the barrel, pressurize, and try to fire, what happens? A loud pop or just a hiss out the pilot?

With a proper pilot you should be good, I used a slide valve for my experiments and it popped very well.

I can't quantify it exactly but the more pilot volume you have, the slower the valve will open and the less power you will get from your projectile.
