Got a sniper X2 in .357.... few questions

Hi guy, this is my first post here on GTA. I have come here from airgun nation because there does not seem to be much info over there for the Evanix stuff.
I picked up a sniper X2 357 and have been trying a few different pellet types, chrony tests, and hammer spring adjustments. I would like to get this gun dialed in and eventually fine tune it and increase the power with internal mods... after more research of course.
Question 1...what other evanix guns does the sniper x2 share the same barrel and mechanicals with? I ask because I may be able to find posts, technical info, modification info etc. about other evanix products and that may also be applicable to mine.
Question 2... is there an easy retrofit for a longer barrel on the sniper X2? Possibly from another 357 evanix gun? It seems like the most obvious way to get some more power and efficiency. Inside the empty shroud/suppressor can, there is quite a bit of room for a longer barrel.
Question 3... can anyone recommend a good hammer spring setup for this gun? I don't like how mine is right now, and adjusting it doesn't seem to make much change. Mine only shoots consistent groups down around 110-140 bar tank pressure...I'd like to get my consistent group up near 200 bar where the speed is higher.
Thanks for any input guys! I hope to contribute any info I can to this community in the future!

I believe most of what you’re looking for is in that thread.
