I failed to see previously that you mentioned the SDB spring. By all means go ahead with it. It is soft and gentle and gives a low cocking effort and gentle shot cycle. The only problem I faced with it was that the spring bent, slackened and shortened by 4 cm after 3500 shots. Result was that my gun dropped from 14 fpe to 8-9 fpe. But your case is different, you are dealing with a low powered accurate gun and the SDB spring fits the bill perfectly without pointlessly straining the powerplant or giving rise to forceful vibrations during the shot cycle. With such a spring your gun will undoubtedly be a sweet shooter and squeeze out the last ounce of accuracy from the gun.
And one more trivial thing lifewater, please don't address me as "Sir", makes me feel like a wretched impostor.
