I think Ric is right with your 2nd problem. The first sounds like the spring broke :0 , take the stock back off and you will probably see it.

Crosman spring will work, or if you want to upgrade you can go with Jim Maccari's spring, but it may require guide fabrication.

Do you have 2 mainsprings in your Gamo - an inner and an outer?

So what options do I have now?
Is there another heavy duty spring available or should I just replace the stock trigger and have Gamo warranty it? (which they'll prolly void since I turned a few screws)

It's up to you, but if you decide to have Gamo fulfill their obligation on it, as long as the stock trigger is back in, they will service it as warranted, and taking the barreled action out of the stock does not void the warranty.
Q.: Can I modify my rifle?
A.: No. NEVER modify your rifle. It could be dangerous and would void your warranty. Please refer to the manual, which states: "This warranty does not include damage caused by abuse, unauthorized repair or modification of any kind".
Q.: If I take my rifle apart will it still be under warranty?
A.: No. NEVER take your rifle apart. It could be dangerous and would void your warranty. Please refer to the manual, which states: "This warranty does not include damage caused by abuse, unauthorized repair or modification of any kind".
Q.: What can I do if I get rust in the barrel?
A.: With proper lubrication, rust in the barrel should not occur. Please refer to your local gunsmith for assistance. Also note that our warranty states that damage caused by abuse is not included.
Q.: Can the butt pad be removed from my rifle for better fit without voiding the warranty?
A.: No. The butt plate should not be removed from your rifle, as this would void the warranty for the stock.

98 snake eater, can you say it sounds quieter after the tune? Judging solely by your videos, I think it does sound a bit quieter, but without handling the unit myself or being there I can't say for sure (since there are so many variables to recording).

Hey Rick... I would be very careful using those PBA's. They are very light, just over 5 gr and very hard on your spring and can really shorten the life of it. It doesn't take a whole lot in some guns to cause spring fatigue and spring failure.
