More efficent TM P226

I got a TM P226. It's got some miles on it. After all this time is seems to have lost some of its gas efficiency. (I'm taking into account recent cold weather)

I just want parts that fit together well and reliably. Anyone with any TM P226 experience please chime in.

It has a Nineball piston head but inside the stock loading nozzle it fits loose. The nozzle slides very very easily over it and I can't seem to find a larger o-ring that won't jam it.

Tried a PDI piston head and it is too large for the nozzle.

I'm not sure if the loading nozzle is the culprit but purple Nine ball buckings seem to get deformed after a bit. (have been through 3)

Tried a Maple Leaf 75 degree bucking but the BB's just rolled out. Major loss of FPS.

Shooters Design Loading nozzle jams the slide. (Plastic TM slide)

All my mags have Nine Ball Gas Route Sealing Rubbers.

If I could get a stock TM loading nozzle set I'd try it but can't seem to source it.

I'm tempted to try other aftermarket loading nozzles but am unsure which ones will fit since I'm having trouble finding the right combination of parts to get it at its sweet spot.
