It would look better, and yes have a higher volume, but the downside would be pressure, the point of using cylindrical pressure containers is the ability to use higher pressures without bursting seams/welds.
Iv been looking into this gun, and I can help but think it would be better off with a rectangular air chamber to give it more like 200cc. What's other people's thoughts?

To get a better shot count, a small increase in the diameter of the cylinder would give a substantial improvement.
I got custom twin tanks on mine
Think it is a brilliant little rifle with a decent shotcount (for a 67cc cylinder) .
Remember there is a regulator fitted inside too!
I have one in FAC version and think it is a great tool for hunting and easy to transport.
Love the caliber change feature, got barrels in all calibers, even .30 and .35.

not done shot numbers as yet will report back I got all 4 barrels to try
What is the shot count for .177 12ft/lbs
Here you go mate, a cut and paste below.
SHOT COUNT & FINE TUNING
Leshiy is quite easy to adjust for speed with both regulator adjustment and hammer spring fine tuning. I fill my Leshiy with air to 250bar. Why not 300? Sure, you can go up to 300bar but it gives only couple extra shots and with 300 bar in my big tank it would be impossible to fill Leshiy always to the same pressure - so every couple of fills I'd have less shots and I prefer one firm number. I tried 17J with about 110 bar set on regulator and got 40 stabile shots from 250 to 110 bar. If you fill to 300bar and allow for more than 5% Vo variance (me not) you can get even 50+. With about 95 bar on regulator I can get 46 shots with Vo spread below 4% from 250 bar fill. That is great performance considering the size of tank onboard. I'm sure I could get even more with pressure adjusted down to 90 or even 85 bar and the longer 350mm barrel but for now all I have is standard 250mm one.
Kindest regards

IF I WALKED ON WATER PEOPLE WOULD SAY I COULD NOT SWIM !
Not my cup of tea.
