Thread bump.

There is an adjustment to lower and raise the snake jaw without washers. A screw with locknuts on it.

Super exclusive ad from the Pinside Marketplace!

I didn't take pictures when I did it but I added a small washer to each of the 4 screws holding the mech in place. This lowered it just enough. The shot is now more reliable and makable.

Quoted from o-din:

can anyone confirm the existence of that screw and/or where it is located? I'm tweaking my snake all over the place at the moment (http://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/metallica-premium-snake-problem#post-1538693) and if there is a screw that moves the jaw up and down that would be very helpful...

There is a screw in the back of the mech. It does NOT move the jaw. It simply adjusts the lever which keeps the jaw closed (prem and LE).
You can add washers to lower the jaw and it helps.
