Recoil Spring Rates

[a_number_1]

Anyone know the recoil spring rates (lbs) for these shotguns?

Benelli M1

FN-SLP or SX2

Remington 1100 and 11-87

I can't find anything that actually lists this.

thanks

I don't know the exact poundage, but it does go something like this.

Benelli: The lightest of the 3 and "just right"

Remington: next stiffest and it needs to be to keep the gun fom hammering it'sself apart.

FN/WIN SX-2 Stiffest of the 3, this spring can hold up the hood of a 47 DeSoto, and comes with a GMC stock number from the "heavy Truck" catalog.

Thats funny. Thanks for the input, do folks freely interchange them to tweak their guns?

I actually need the numbers, I'm doing some research for a project and need to get a totally different spring with approximately the same rate, and then some plus/minus variations.

I'm surprised how many spring retailiers don't state the spring rate.
