Which spring is more powerful?
« on: February 25, 2010, 10:16:18 AM »
The B28 OEM, RWS 350 or JM's RWS 350 Full Power spring?

In my opinion the B-28 and RWS-350's are good springs when brand new but the JM Spring keeps it's strength and shape much longer if it is not abused. RWS does not use the same quality spring in there guns as they did years ago but thank God for JM's spring replacements...:)

The OEM B-28 spring is by far much more powerful than the Maccarri replacement spring. But the Maccarri spring is alot smoother and easier to shoot with. Call it an even trade off. I will agree with Gene. You can't abuse any spring an expect it to last long,....not matter if it's RWS, Xisico, or Maccarri. My B-28A is a dream to shoot, and is my favorite hunting rifle. My B-28 (.177) is an absolute Hammer, and must be shot with heavier pellets to stay sub-sonic!!!! I'd recommend the Maccarri spring for the .177 cal, and the OEM for .22. Basically the opposite of what my clones are set up with!!! LOL's tjk

That's the direction I was thinking too. OEM for .22 and JM for .177. Thanks.
