Jay,
Spring in my Whisper rolled craps around 1500 rounds also.  Follow Bobs advice on the parts from JM and you will be surprisingly pleased with a great shooter.  He is the Grand Ole Man of the tuners her on the forum and one of the greatest gentlemem I have had the pleasure of doing business with.  He cares about the people here and the sport.  His word is gold in my opinion and I have purchased 5 of his GRT-III's for myself and a few for others and installed them.  You will change that pellet gun into an Air Rifle with the GRT-III and a tune.  The fun is yet to come and it's interesting to do as well.  Best of luck with the repairs and let us know how she turns out.
Tim

Jay,
I machined a custom spring guide out of Delrin and used a SS washer as a bearing surface for the rear of the spring and machined a brass top hat with a spacer for the piston end of the spring.  Made my measurements and then got advice from Gene on materials to consider for the parts. These are one of the advantages of being a machinist and working in a large production facility with access to the necessary equipment.  It is also necessary to have the gun and components in hand to make these measurments, this is one of the things Bob, Gene, and Ed have done over the years as pro tuners.  They can make great shooters out of these air rifles with the work they do.  Good luck with the tune and repair job.  Let us know how she comes out in the end.  Anything else dope in a line and I'll try to help if I can.
