Finally found the time to try some different strength recoil springs in the Open gun.
Tested 8, 9,10,11 pound springs.
What Recoil Spring do you use in your Open Gun?

Vertical spread on that 8 was crazy

It's cool to watch the rim of your cap, move/back away from the light post in the back throughout the 10 rounds, due to recoil... (around the 5'10" mark)... I know, useless info... LOL

I plan on doing more testing with ammo/springs.

I’m just joking. I use a 10 lb spring in my gun, but most guys I know run 7s or 8s.

@@Silverscooby27 I wonder how they are getting it to work? I have a 9lb and man that barrel dips every follow up shot.

You shouldnt use the nio pound spring. If you look at the video you diped the muzzle during the recoil, then you have to wait for the muzzle to come back up or you will have low hits. The video with the 10 pond spring was in tune with your grip and stance and rhe gun returned to center after recoil. The second run with 10 pound then your stance wandered back an inch. If you go that fast you must leen in a bit more with your upper body. 8 pound look good to, but slower. To bad that there was no film for the 11 pound. Greet shooting!

Yes that is why I stopped using it. I was having the gun drop on me. It was killing me.

I ended up going to an 8lb spring with a shock buffer and it's really nice now

Hey Tom! What kind of PF air you running? I believe that you have to combine your recoil spring according with your PF, just an opinion, I’m learning with my open gun too… this a great info video, be safe man

I chronoed at 170 at nationals. I will be messing with my ammo next to see if that changes the recoil as well.

So he increases spring weight and his groups move up? Uh uh that’s not the way it works. Heavier recoil spring moves the slide forward with MORE inertia and therefore more dip. Something is not right here. I’ll bet inconsistent grip.
