HW80

   I would definately remove the old grease and then Moly grease the spring... not heaps but enough to allow smooth metal on metal contact.

Just some thoughts... the twang sound is generated right next to you ear when firing. If you stand away from the rifle (have someone else fire it) it isn't that loud... I have found springs quiter than thump of nitro-pistons but that may be subjective.

If it makes a twack sound the spring is broken... so twang is good.

Vortex and other make after-market nylon spring guide kits, including HW80s. I have one to fit to my TX200 but I haven't bothered since its twang doesn't scare the bunnies.
