kanyon - thanks for posting! I was just wondering how my new Mendoza spring might perform (compared to the old one).

I got numbers in the 125-150 pound range, which intuitively sounds "right," so the program must be working at airgun scale.

The trick is to remeber the compressed length is the piston stroke\plus pre load compression.
EG----
piston stroke - 75mm
Pre load ------ 25mm
total ----------- 100mm
As the pre load is pre stored energy before cocking.

B11 spring came out at -
Rate - 45.03lbs / 7936.81newtons/metre - per inch of compression.
total force at compressed length - 151.75lbs / 679.39newtons
