spring drives a piston that pushes air
When you cock the rifle it compresses the gas behind a piston just like a spring. Basically it replaces the spring.

Not usually. There are several factors involved besides the spring, but the .22 will usually use a stronger spring to propel the heavier pellet.
A spring powered system uses a spring that is inside an air tube. The spring is attached to a piston. When the rifle is cocked the spring and piston are drawn back and locked at one end of the air tube. The other end of the air tube has a small hole that is directly behind the pellet and rifle barrel. When the trigger is pulled the spring is released and it pushes the piston down the air tube forcing all the air through the hole, and that fires the pellet down the barrel.
The Shamal was not Air Arms first spring rifleIt was their first pre-charged air rifle and a very good oneValue greatly depends on condition, type of stock and to whether the rifle is regulated or notHence value range £180 to £400
All pellet guns use compressed air or gas. 1. Spring piston: Cocking the barrel of the rifle compresses the spring and piston inside the rifle or gun that is located in an air cylinder. When you pull the trigger it releases the spring and as the spring shoots forward, it pushes compressed air ahead if it that forces the pellet out the barrel. 2. Co2: A Co2 bottle it inserted into the gun or rifle, and it is full of compressed Co2. When you pull the trigger a burst of Co2 gas is released and the gas pushes the pellet out the barrel. This same idea is used for the larger PCP rifles only they use a much higher pressure bottle. 3. Pump: When you pump the forearm of the rifle it stores air in an air chamber. When you pull the trigger all the air is released behind the pellet forcing it out the barrel. BB guns work the same way.
No. the Remington is a spring system air rifle. It requires that it only be cocked and then fired to work. No C02 is required.
Not recommended. Not desgined for a more powerful spring.
Yes it can but getting the current rifle "Tuned" by an expert will get you better results. Tuning will make the spring and trigger perform better.
Contact the maker to see if it is possible and what it will cost.
It all depends on the Rifle and bipod model.
