Canman Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 What recoil spring do you recommend. I mostly shoot 125gn lrn 4.0gn bullseye 1.13 OAL and 147gn cast also with bullseye. I just compete for fun so my pf means nothing for now. I did buy a XDM 4.5 in 40cal but haven't installed any aftermarket do dads yet. I am running PRP match trigger in both mine and my sons XDM 9's. I have different powders I could try just have over 20lbs of bullseye on hand. Also what pound spring comes stock in XDM 9mm full size not the competition model?

Broncman Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 I run a 14 lb with stock striker, no issues so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xd1977 Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 18 lb. is the stock spring weight. If you are running the 147's on a soft load, it's ok to run the 14 lb. spring. If you move down in bullet weight to 124 or 125 gr. to minor power factor, go ahead and move your spring weight up to the 16 lb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should be fine running the 14# at 130 PF. Spend the $ for the spring and give it the recoil test. Make sure it's not slamming into the locking lug and see where your sights are settling after recoil. If they are riding up and not coming back to your natural point of aim, then you'll probably need to go with the 16#. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
