zebedee321 0 Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 Hello mate, having a PCP myself its been years since bashing a springer, changing the spring is only half the story. you need to make sure the piston is up to spec and also uprate the seal's on the breech. other than that its the maintenance that really affects the performance!!! hope that this helps john Ps after any work always best to check the rifle on a chrony for power (have to say that bit really) Quote Link to post

teilky 0 Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 what i used to do was look on the yellow pages for spring manufacuters go see them and get a spring any strenth you want made there and then.but if the spring is weak you can allways increase the port dia to confirm with the law or decrease what ever works Quote Link to post
Big bald beautiful 1,231 Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 (edited) yes f**k about with the port diameter and scrap the gun buy a spring and a top hat from here, but whats rong with the spring in your gun? what power is it putting out? http://www.chambersgunmakers.co.uk/ Edited January 8, 2008 by Big bald beautiful Quote Link to post
Bullyhunt 0 Posted January 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 not too sure think its pushing 11.5, its a bit clunky when it shoots i wnt to take it right up to 12 and have it shooting smoother. Quote Link to post
Big bald beautiful 1,231 Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 .5 ftlbs will not make any difference, 11 ftlbs is safer. http://www.airgunbuyer.com/subcat.asp?cat=...Custom%20Tuning Quote Link to post
