Re: increase the power
I'm not an expert in air guns but what i understood in this forum is to change the spring,piston and seal and do a proper tuning to it. This is the basic thing...

Re: increase the power
Hi Guys,
> Increasing power for the sake of it - is not truly worth it & many have realized it.
> Actually power should compliment - the smoothness in performance (no vibrations) & accuracy.
> When you are restricted by the quality of the barrel / rifling, the limitations of the swept volume in the power plant, changing the spring & seal will only give marginal increase in velocity.
> In fact there are too many variables to be considered.........
> One can experiment and zero in on an ideal combination of all these factors.
> Like the saying - the fun is in the chase and not the quarry - have fun!!!
Cheers
