A stronger or more efficient spring/ram can result in higher pellet speeds.

Replacing a spring requires a spring compressor and, while not overly complex, it requires mechanical skill and caution due to the tension. Essential Upgrade Components Spring/Gas Ram: The main power plant upgrade.

For the best results, it is highly recommended to pair a new spring with a Tuning Kit that includes fitted spring guides.

Converting a coil-spring gun to a gas ram (such as the Crosman Nitro Piston or Vortek PG2/PG3) replaces the metal coil spring with a sealed unit containing nitrogen gas. This usually reduces vibration, makes cocking smoother, and allows the gun to be left cocked for longer periods without spring fatigue. Benefits of Upgrading

To help you with more specific content, could you let me know:

A new spring provides more consistent power, leading to better accuracy (lower standard deviation in velocity).
