EkuJustice Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 (edited) It's what ever feels good for you. I would try an 8 and a 9 Edited February 9, 2014 by EkuJustice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmcferro Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 I ended up using the 9 lb spring, it felt good and ran great. I am in love with my Steelmaster! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nimitz Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Anyone know what the weight of the spring is in the stock gun from the factory? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmcferro Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 It is the STI recoil master light, but not sure of the spring weight. You might call STI? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heckler Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 If you swap out the recoil master does it use a standard length guide rod with the same reverse plug? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwc5 Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Yesterday I tested std type recoil springs w full length guide rod (STI) compared to the light recoil master that came in the gun & that I've been shooting: 124 gr Freedom Munitions (new) 7 lb (Shooters Conn) - feels almost identical to the light RM 8 lb - feels slower than the 7 lb or the light RM, lazy ejection 9 lb - experienced 50% Stovepipes Result for me - back to the stock light recoil master.
