im no expert with the 22 yet, just ran it for the first time this weekend, but we ran all lump, and easily got 350 by cracking the lid about 1/2 inch. Once it hit that, we put the lid back, opened all vents and it held at 315 for about 3 hours until it ran out of fuel. Keep in mind, we ramped it up after burning for about 4 hours at 250 so the fuels load was on its way out.
by the way.. that sucker makes alot of steam... it nearly washed all the rub off the ribs in the first 30 minutes. I run the 18 with water, but for the 22, no more water in the water pan for me... switchin to sand.
