What lb recoil spring comes in a LimPro .40 ?

[DenverDave]

Figured I would ask the pro's....

What lb recoil spring comes in a LimPro .40 from the factory?

Appreciate any help.

[V2plus25]

10 lb

Although a 12lb works well and is recommended for higher pf ammo

The gun doesn't come with a 10/12.

 

He's suggesting a spring for running your reloads.

My bad.  So what spring weight comes stock with the .40 Limited Pro?

[SCTaylor]

BenStoeger Pro Shop indicates a 12lb is factory in the Lim Pro 40's.

That's not accurate, however. Or one of my springs was significantly heavier or lighter than it's rating.

 

Even with 3 coils cut off the factory spring, its still obviously harder to cycle the slide than when a 10 pound Wolff is installed.

Then what would you suggest for a .40 minor load?

8#  for minor.  Henning sells a 10.7# for 40 MAJOR..
