If it doesn't resolve it I can spin some parts on my lathe to get things fitting better.
For a 800-900 airgun you'd think it wouldn't be necessary.

Unfortunately it doesn't really matter how much one spends on a factory airgun, they almost all need some ironing out.

People spend 2-3k on pcps that need work to make them the best they can be.

Also, a tar tune is kind of just masking the issue, and it robs power from the gun. It will also be more temperature sensitive for speed. You can turn a new guide on the lathe and make it tighter fitting.

AmBraCol:
So how has your tuning gone?  Did a strip/clean/lube do it, or did you go with spinning up some guides and such for it? 

Jay308:
It’s a very loose guide and the liquid/grease they use can settle and would twang over time.  My TX200 didn’t twang but vibrated a lot.  I thought by buying the TX I would not have to tune…

 Luckily they are easy to take apart.  I used the Vortek piston seal and the TBT guide kit with stock spring, 13 ft lbs now and easy to shoot.
