Springer set up is as much about preference as anything else

[cooper_dan]

Short answer: I agree.
Several years ago I was invited to try a rifle that had been 'tuned'; professionally I guess as the owner had paid for the work. I think it may have been a 97k. I shot it a couple of times and made encouraging remarks to the owner who quite clearly thought the rifle was the bees knees. Yet I thought it was terrible .. very snappy to shoot. Far too snappy for me. So I guess this was a good example answer relevant to your question.

Cheers, Phil

This used to happen all the time to me. Was always offered a go on a 'super tuned' rifle. Often they were for sale....
Normally I was told 'best springer you will ever shoot' etc.
On the whole I thought they were pretty awful. None of them ever swayed me away from my relatively standard TX
