Pity you are a gazillion miles away, we could compare shot cycles
Jon, what are the specs on your 3mm spring? Length, number of coils, ID and OD? I have a .120" wire spring on the way to me with custom guides (I think that means it's a 3mm wire). Curious how the length of mine compares to the one you are adding 2" of pre-load to. Also with the custom guides I had my TX200 piston lightened - I can run it anywhere from 173g up to 200g or more with a steel tophat. Plan to decrease stroke by 14mm. Last bit is figuring if the transfer port should be increased from 3.7mm.
