Interesting thought given that heavy pellets increase the power output of PCPs and reduce that of springers and the Tempest produces around 3.6ft/lbs with more suitable pellets on a good day
A light pellet such as the Thunderbolt would yield significantly more power from a low to mid powered spring pistol.

Research the real meaning of point blank rather than that associated with poor fiction and even poorer news reporting, it doesn't mean up close
