Hi Mate

 

Have you tried Thunderbolt pellets they are made for SMK spingers and they give you a lot more fps, experiment with different pellets untill you find the one that suits your rifle. When firing a springer hold it lightly it needs to recoil and pull the trigger by squeezing thumb and forefinger.

 

Clean bluing.

Hope this helps

I have a 19 myself as my preffered springer (apart from the trigger being a lil rough, its an excellant rifle) based on the Gamo Hunter (based on a HW!)

 

Shot my 1st bunny with it

 

And have never looked back

 

Only reason I dont shoot it so much now is I have knckered finger tips and the pressure of the trigger (until I replace it with a GRTIII) makes my fingers bleed

 

To reduce the "Twang" I got a couple of felt pads (felt feet for furniture from Wilkinsons) and pkaced acouple of pieces between the action and the stock Made a hell of a difference

 

Cheap it may b;, But by hell does it deliver the results
