I would back the striker all the way back and start with 3 turns on the hammer spring. Do you have a chronograph? It will be very hard to tune without one.

Yes and I should have been more specific it's a .22 cal and I'm shooting H&N 18.25 gr slugs. I watched a video of a guy tuning a Benjamin Marauder 25 caliber and he did five and three on the turns and it seems to be better. But I was doing it without a crono but I have one coming today

That will help you get it really dialed in. It also helps put things in perspective with each adjustment.

Are you or anyone else familiar with the Benjamin Gunner the other day it would not cock back all the way and I had to take the stock off and pull the hammer spring out and the spring had lost all resistance like it was just worn out the gun is only three months old it has gotten a lot of use but do those springs wear out that quickly is that a common problem with the gunner or just mine it's a .25cal.

I've never had any spring problems in any of my guns. However I never leave them cocked for long.
