    Tuning Thrust bearing

    i was thinking use a bearing to replace pre load washers ? I have never had a springer apart , only see pictures ........ so far . Using the bearings would only lesson the shock , the spring would retain its normal movement . Maybe chasing my tail ?

    Tuning Thrust bearing

    Velocity for barn gun

    I don't think size (in this case ) matters . I will admit .22 pellets are easier to handle .
