Excellent work. Thanks for that.
Never thought about that but, on reflection, I think you're right.
Your comments on the recoil of the 55 ring a bell - I remember that mine was quite 'lively', which is probably why I sold it but kept the sweeter-shooting if lower power HW50. I wonder how the 55 might respond to a synthetic piston head and less spring because, if you could achieve reasonable power (say, close to 11fpe) and tame the discharge movement, it would be a lovely little rifle to shoot.
Thats another future project of mine- so I will keep you posted!
Dave
