    New springs

    If you get a rifle, (used) and you want to give it some more, Ummph, can you fit a better spring?

    What power is your rifle doing now? Im assuming you are aware of the 12ft/lb ruling.

    Use a new std spring which usually gives 11ftlb in Mercury and correct pellets, a stronger spring will probably cause piston slam, lack of accuracy and drop in power
