I polished all the trigger contact points. What a difference. Still not a tx200 trigger, but it’s a fine one. I’m still amazed how well this thing shoots with Crosman Premier pellets. I shot it over the Chronograph today. All 10 shots were within an ES of 3 shooting right at 674fps. At 14FPE, this thing is a laser. I’ve never lubed a springer so maybe I did this wrong. I pulled out all the internals and cleaned off all this copper colored lube. Looked like antiseize. Cleaned all the metal parts with brake cleaner and dried. I have Lithium automotive grease, pure silicone oil and silicone grease. I put a thin coat of lithium grease on the spring, guide and top hat. Also put a bit on the part of the piston that enters the trigger group. Basically any metal to metal contact. I greased the piston rings with a thin layer of silicone grease and the piston seal with a light coat of silicone oil. It shoots really nice with no twang. If I did this wrong, someone please let me know. I’ve put about 100 pellets through it and it seems to be fine. I’m planning on buying some moly grease like everyone else uses. Until i get it, I figured I’d use what I have.
