It was a 112 here today "too hot to shoot" and to be honest I learned a lot more about spring guns today than I have in a long time, maybe ever. Never took the time to research how they worked before.
Good conversation everyone. One thing I did read is the higher compression rifles driven by springs supposedly rely on some combustion from the hydrocarbon lubricant to propel the pellet. I did not know that.
Like I said earlier my experience with springers is limited as I only have one "the one with the 14lb trigger pull" and have never taken it apart. I mainly shoot PCP's and they are a completely different story as they are easily adjustable so I am always tweaking with shot strings and such.
Speaking of modifications I do like Gloob's hacksaw techniques and expect to see his rifle in the next Mad Max movie
