I haven't chatted with Tim in a while, but he was usually very helpful. Maybe just the holiday crush?
Anyway, your declining string would indicate to me that you have too much hammer spring.
What are your goals?
Which kit did you get from Tim?
-
He is a member here (HillGSA) you could try sending him a pm though that would basically be the same as an email...
-
FuzzyGrub is on the right track with his comments and questions. Those are the ones that will get you where you want to go. I have bought from Tim in the past and he has responded to my emails very quickly. I imagine that he is very busy, especially as it is almost Christmas. Most of the vendors in air rifles are one person shows and keeping all the plates spinning must be daunting.
-
Ok I got my email answered by Tim I must have messed up the address. So he is in contact with me. I have tried the hammer spring adjustment from 1 turn in all the way to the stop. This is a regulated gun and has Tim's hammer and spring. I'm not sure what the spring strength is but this kit also has the hill valve which does not have a TP screw, I'm not even sure what to expect, but I'm sure not getting any thing like the reviews are getting. I have tried a few more things and some more strings. Here is another.
What I was hoping for was to get 830-850 with the 33 gr projectiles for big stuff like yotes and Bobcats that are stalking my laying hens when they are out free ranging. I keep over watch on them when they are out. I would like to even try the 33 gr slugs if I can get it tuned right. The is just not a lot of adjustment.
