    The best springs have fewer coils and come in more compressed, they are faster and more effective, I have even seen titanium which makes them much faster. 😮

    The Relum Telly had two springs and the one I saw was very powerful. The 'top hat' piston weight makes a difference, as it provides the momentum that the light piston lacks in weight. I made one from bronze for my bsa superstar, shortened the spring and hey presto!

    Just found your video , someone has sold you a pair of Tornado springs an airgun produced by FEG in Hungary designed in the late fifties early sixties went through several mods over the years but the twin spring tec was never really a success. I would suggest using an appropriate Titan xs main spring and replacing the piston seal with a TX 200 seal or contact Ian at Custom air seal Australia I believe he produces a seal to fit that covers the boss on the end of the piston this will improve sealing and reduce noise not sure the piston weight needed unless you decide to go for a shorter and less powerful spring. Remember the heavier the piston the greater the felt recoil. There has been a anti grease movement for the last forty years, but the correct amount of lubricant in the right places can work wonders for recoil and smooth shooting.

    I have a veeery cheap and primitive springer i bought used for 15 euros. In my country you can buy air rifles up to 12J energy without licences. I dont think it was making all the 12J even, what i did to get a bit more power was to dissamble it, ive "hand machined" a spacer to add between the spring and the trigger carrier to give it a tad more compression. I had to modify the the trigger because it didnt latch onto the spring catch due to the more compression. It does have a bit more recoil now, but the power definately increased. The seals are all bad and its really a shit rifle, but its much more accurate now and packs a bit better punch. Best thing, it cost me like 5cent nut that i grounded and drilled to fit the guide.

    @darkomartinovic7501 8 месяцев назад

    I think you left out the plastic cylinder that should have been installed between the larger spring and the trigger body. I see that the plastic guide shortened the inner spring and the outer one remained longer.
    It has happened to me when I put a lot of grease in cilinder, my projectile speed drops, especially with Cometa airguns due to small clearances and tolerances. I personally use MoS2 long term grease and apply it in extremely small quantities and later only a drop of ballistol oil.
    If you want more power, install either a gas piston or a 3.5mm wire spring.
    That metal guide that you threw out because it stuck and caused the cylinder to jam. Take it to a master turner and cut off the hat to 2mm. It's a flywheel that gets constant speed without variation, but you'll get a bit more recoil.

    @TheKimjoh560 Год назад +1

    One of those kits frome ebay with green syringes I take it? Did you try running it with the factory seals? Because those "high performance seals" are absolute garbage. More recoil with less power often indicates a leak. Maybe also try to turn the inner spring around. Then again it could also be that the internal friction of the spring assembly bottle necks the entire assembly. I got one of those kits a while back and didnt have any luck either.

    All is that will achieve is more recoil and abysmal accuracy. don’t forget when you compress the spring, it gets bigger! It’s almost certainly getting entangled with the other one.👍

  • @DrAgan_tortojed
    @DrAgan_tortojed 6 месяцев назад

    Don't change anything as long as it works - and your "original" setup worked EXCELLENTLY, provided that trigger is smooth and predictable. And that amount of power (sub 20 J) is IDEAL for an airgun of that construction and caliber.

    • @Maddogairguns
      @Maddogairguns  6 месяцев назад +1

      It was just an experiment for RUclips. The rifle is back to original now with the original spring and a trigger polish etc. Shoots well now.

    Hello my friend,
    I'm just beginning my journey, trying to rid my spring air rifles of twang and buzz from the firing cycle.
    Quite often, I buy things that don't work. Sometimes, I have to go back into the rifle for something and nothing or a minor adjustment.
    I'd say this is trial and error, and sometimes the gains you see are hard the envisage.
    Your video was great, just to be amongst fellow like-minded people with a common interest, knowing that not everything they try and do will work out.
    It's just nice, having a go, and when an idea works, it's great! Thank you.

  • @jimstewart5008
    @jimstewart5008 Год назад +1

    I have to wonder if you had the ability to turn down the top hat to fit the inside spring and remove a couple of coils off the spring what would have happened. I would measure the inside and outside coil widths and multiply my number of coils, and subtract the top hats length to the shoulder of the head to get the proper amount of coils and not be coil bound. If you follow me, it would be an great experiment. I believe you would get good results

    • @johncuthbertson2565

    I think that black bushing should still be in there ,the problem may lay with the installer not the product , the spring being shorter is prabably unloading its energy too early and think about it ! The origanal spring needed that black spacer and its longer , you put in a shorter spring and took out a block that is there to compress the spring , there for resulting in a lower pressure , i think you made the mistake not the product ......
