Sr45 recoil spring

[any ruger]

Anybody switch to a lighter spring?

I haven't switched to a lighter recoil spring before on any of my pistols, so not sure how that would work. I am following this though to see what folks have to say. It should be interesting.

I would only consider switching to a lighter spring if I had a specific bullet/powder combo that I wanted to use, and the stock spring would not allow cycling. I have the stock spring in my Springfield RO and am able to reliably cycle even using Trailboss and 200 grain lead bullets. These loads have very light recoil for .45.
