Oldminger Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Any recommendations for recoil and main spring weights for a 40 cal 1911 single stack shooting minor loads. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Postal Bob Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 In my Atlas, running 132 pf loads, I have a 15lb mainspring, and a 10lb recoil. And it feels like I'm cheating shooting minor loads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1911builder Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 I run a 15lb main and 11 recoil that has been chopped down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeti Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 18 main with 10 recoil, but I prefer ~138-140PF for 40 Minor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
