    I'm surprised it took until post #8 before someone suggested a tune from someone other than SFS.........The OP asked what options you get with an SFS tune not "Who should I get to tune my rifle?"!

    Why do springer tuning posts always seem to bring out the "My tuner is better than your tuner" posts?

    In fairness I did ask about what you get from SFS various stages of tune but when it was pointed out there is no buttoning done on any of Tony's tunes I asked who from the BBS could do it so I could just go with a vmach kit after the buttoning had been done.

    sfs

    I would not by a potato gun from them
    I bought a hw 45 from them -- it was not shooting right the trigger seemed way to heavy so I went to ajust it --the grubscrew was missing
    even my mate checked it for me and it was gone
    I took it back and told them tony took it back to workshop came back and asked what I was talking about its there plain to see - yes it was but he lied he fitted one ---- why lie --- I was just happy it was sorted

    Its the nature of forums to diverge.

    But I digress...

    Don't get obsessed with buttons.

    Do it the other way around ...

    Fit a decent kit, debur, polish piston, size seal. That with decent modern lubes on the piston and comp tube and you will probably not want to go with buttons ( someone like Bigtoe will be along to advise on latest lubes ).

    He would probably advise Finishing line bike grease on the seal, Red rubber grease on the spring and guide, and moly on the comp tube , I use these and they are all excellent
