I have little knowledge about bolt action upgrades, but here is a site that has TM VSR parts. Scroll all the way to the bottom and you will see a VSR section (very last section).

Another site that has some parts for VSR's:
http://www.combatdepot.com/index.php?cPath=28_183&osCsid=4f5db9bd23219dbdfb4737920f9644ec

This place sometimes has the parts, but they are currently out of stock on everything VSR.

I do know that you will want to have a metal spring guide of some kind if you plan on going to a stiffer spring. You may also want to invest in a new piston/piston head... but like I said, I dont really know much about them.

from what ive herd is if you put a spring that exceeds 400fps you WILL have to get a zero trigger kit. the zero trigger "kit" is just a new trigger assembly with better internals(heavier springs, better metal) unfortunately these run in the $100-$200 range. honestly th VSR (from my very limited bolt action experience) has the best V-style hop-up so you would only need to get it up to 400 to do some damage. and with your gun being around the 400 range you only have a 25ft engagement distance. also to take into consideration is the fact that the VSR is one of the quietest guns on the market(at least the g-spec is) and if you don't have a silencer now you can make a cost effective(bout $25) one out of PVC and foam. that way u can hide a longer barrel and greatly reduce muzzle report(how loud ur gun is).

just some ideas
