"good switches help you feel the key and avoid bottom out"
To deal with bottoming out, using Cherry Blue switches, I've found that these red dampeners work very nicely: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AZQ3966/ There are also thicker ones that have better stocking: http://www.amazon.com/Cherry-Rubber-O-Ring-Switch-Dampeners/... and the same company has a nice key puller: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AZCGF7K/
Agreed with the other two respondents at this time. While I loved the Selectric keyboard, the Model M, while certainly a lot better than many others of that era, wasn't great. I much prefer Cherry Blue switches, to which I add these to soften their bottoming out: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AZQ3966/
