What does the lbs. refer to? How does more or less pounds help the fire arm?

The amount of pressure thta is but on it the more lbs the better the handling try to get the same settings as this one it handles better than the factory one and the recoil is a lot better now.

generally relates to shooting heavier or lighter loads so the action cycles properly; unless you're doing hand loads, use the recommend spring weight for your caliber.

The Lbs, or pounds is the resistance of the spring. If you read Galloways website they have different weights in spring tension that can effect the recoil of the firearm. I would stay with the factory spring weight to keep recoil and specifications the same so that it does not cause any stove piping or any other issues. Only use the higher tensioned spring if you always shoot 147gr in my opinion.

heavyer bullets makes the fps lower. its a science. (bbs may travel farther with more accuracy with heavyer bbs)

Not sure...I don't add weight when using this rest to shoot from. Frankly I'd say if you need that kind of stability, you probably need a Lead Sled or such. My primary use for this rest is still a nice gun servicing unit. I only use it as a rest for minimal shooting situations or other quick-and-dirty instances where I don't want to lug around something heavy. Still, for those situations it works better than it has a right to, and piling bags of shot/lead on the base would improve its use.

20 lbs. Is a heavy spring. It's for 180 gr +P or just Hot Ammo. I think 17 lbs. is what is called for in the 40 S&W Glock 22. It has the stander slide so 20 lbs. might be a bit much unless your issue ammo is HOT like +P ammo. I would not tamper my duty gun unless calling Glock first here. To much at stake here for liability reasons.

I purchased two of these burners. They are awesome by the way!!! I purchased 30 pounds of fire glass for the two. It was perfect. For one, 15 pounds should be ok. Enjoy!!!

No, just in/lbs and in/nm...it only goes up to approximately 120 in/lbs, and I've found most ft/lbs applications start over 15 ft/lbs anyway.

Not entirely sure, but I ordered the wrong lbs originally and experienced issues with the slide locking back, it just depends on the ammo and grain

I like the bow very much but there is no way it has the draw weight of a 30 pounds. I don't know why a description would say that, but it does vary a bit with the arrow length. Shorter arrows require slightly less force since you are not drawing the bow as far. Great bow, though.

That is the pounds of pull. For example if you get the 30# when you pull the bow string back it going to be a consistent 30 pound pull

I've always gone by spine number. The lower the number the stiffer the arrow. Heavier the draw weight of your bow, the stiffer the arrow you need to shoot. A lite draw weight bow can shoot a stiff arrow but a heavy draw weight bow can splinter a less stiff arrow. The 55/70 has a spine numbed of 400 (according to the description). That would be fine for a 55lb pull bow or lighter, but would be minimum stiffness for a 70lb pull bow. I don't have these arrows so I'm just making an assumption that 55/70 is an attempt at telling you what weight bow they should work with. I guess Robert doesn't know what numbers mean ether. He gave a kind of a crappy answer. I've always gone by spine number. The lower the number the stiffer the arrow. Heavier the draw weight of your bow, the stiffer the arrow you need to shoot.

I believe it comes set at the maximum from the factory which is 70lbs but you can use a bow scale to check for sure. If you wish to lower the draw weight, just back out the limb bolts one full turn each at a time as per the instructions in the manual that comes in the box. Hope this helps.

It's lighter, but has a good feel to it weight wise. It's not a blowback. If you want something that will give a kick like a small caliber firearm try the Walther PPK/S (it's steel bbs only,) it has a nice kick. In my opinion, if you want to try practice shooting to replicate a fire arm, you need to practice with a blowback air gun, where the slide recoils back and cock the gun.

You have to change it to lbs. Also, you can "zero" it out and add a container, and then the weight. It is confusing. I had to google it.

believe that the amount of pounds the recurve is rated at is a standard draw of 28 inches. at the draw of 28 inches is 50lbs for a recurve rated 50lbs. still I pull my bow 30 inches which increases the poundage. I shoot 31 inch arrows with a inch left over the front. of course one could draw further depends on length of arm and strength.

Yea it's on for life. It took me putting my knee on the guns and using my weight to get them lose. I set the guns on something soft so I didn't damage them. With that said I no longer have that set due to defective guns. Went through 3 kits and said that was enough. Wish you the best of luck with them.

It is best to stick to the instructions. Here is some info regarding the power of a 22lr bullet. Bullet power is a combination of how fast the bullet is flying, and how much it weighs. So, to have a bullet with less power, you can buy one that is a lighter weight, such as 32 grain versus 40 grain, or you can get a bullet that flies slower. You can buy "subsonic" 22lr bullets - there is only enough gunpowder to get them to fly at about 1,100 feet per second or a little slower, which is below speed of sound at just over 1,100 feet per second. Otherwise, a typical 22lr is faster than the speed of sound, at about 1,400 feet per second. So, slower speed equals less power. It is best to stick to the instructions.

The first number is the rated breaking strength, the second is an indication of the diameter when compared to monofilament. If you want 10lb, buy "10/4". It's ten pound Fireline that has the same diameter (thickness) as 4lb monofilament.
