Nice job on your build and nice shooting. I like the stock you used.

DBO,

Just use the Search function - "Ace" springs  I posted a couple of posts on 'em, I think.

Thanks guys for the spring links!
Here's a couple views of that Pachmayr slip-on grip.

Nice looking shooter.  The pump arm  really makes the tactical look.  Grip is cool too.

Lead into the back of the striker for preload an dwell time...?

pump-n-dump that looks very nice and comfy

I am using a 2100/2200 spring in my 1325 project and with a ~.125 valve I am able to dump 22 2100 pump tube pumps. About 1/3 more swept 

volume, but still not flat topped... but it is moving a 20g pellet around 630fps...   It is stronger than the 13xx spring but not as strong as the Disco

spring.

Thanks everyone for the spring advice. I'm going to stretch the OEM one to start and see how that goes, I have a spare one just in case. I'll get a disco spring on the way just to have if needed.

On another note, I've been looking to add a bipod but with the pump arm mobility and the skinny barrel, there aren't any good off the shelf solutions. So this is what I'm going to try. I found a decent bipod that clamps on/off for simplicity and had a spacer made by Robert at Gravity Machine Works to fill the gap between the barrel and bipod mount. I had him make it a bit longer than needed, as I haven't received the bipod yet, and will trim it to fit. All said and done, it's only a $36 setup which I think is very reasonable. Once I get the pieces and install them, I'll post some pics. Robert can be reached at userrb8501@aol.com if anyone is looking for some machine work. I don't know what his limits are but he made my stock adapter and I've been happy with his work thus far. Pus he's very quick. I sent him a sketch with dimensions one afternoon and the next day he had it made. I know it's a simple part but I still appreciate that kind of turn around.

i tried using folded and stacked towels to support the front of the barrel on my DBO 2289 on my "shooting table" (i have a 24 inch barrel) and at 15ish yards the POI jumped up about 2 - 2 1/2 inches . even slight/modest pressure would change POI . i hope you don't have the same issue mounting a bipod to your barrel .

Good to know DBO. I'll be mounting right in front of the barrel mount/band that's at the end of the compression tube so flex should be minimized. It's very secure but I may need to get a metal one to make it really tight.

sounds like a plan  . i hope the swing of the pump arm allows you to place it close enough to not flex . do you have the stock plastic barrel band or a aftermarket aluminum one ?

Stock. I think aluminum is going to be a good investment. Any suggestions?
