mine is SD9VE, what is the difference between 15, 17, 20 and 22 lb? more number means less recoil?

It can also mean that there is too much spring tension and may cause issues with the ejection of the shell cartridge. I would go either the standard recoil spring weight and recommend nothing else. Unless you shoot 147gr rounds only then the spring weight may be raised up from oem tensions.

You have to consider the physical weight and spring weight of the rod. These rods aren't that heavy and doesn't feel to add any weight towards the front end. I would go with 17 lb spring. Not too much stress to mess up any parts, not too little for failure2feed. Hope this helped.

The spring corresponds with the load. If you're loading weak target rounds, you can use a light spring so the action still cycles. Similar with the heavy weight spring for hot loads. If you're shooting standard factory rounds, use the recommended standard weight.

Yes. There is a trade off though . . . the slide will be harder to rack, and if you are shooting lighters loads, you may have a failure to eject or feed. Put a 22lb on my 40 - much more fun to shoot. Added bonus is it's steel and not some cheap plastic piece.

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

If I remember correctly the 17lb spring is the same as the factory, or very close. The other spring weights while affecting recoil I think are really to match the bullet weight of the cartridge, i.e., the heavier the bullet the stronger the spring. I have the 17lb spring and use a cartridge with a 115gm bullet and it works fine so far.

I've had issue with it holding zero on my mini 14 so would be hesitant to put it n anything with more recoil.

All air soft BBS are the same size, they just differ in weight. I prefer the .20 gram BBS(which is what I used in this air soft gun) because they fly straighter.

Mine only goes to .22. I'd check with the mfr. to see if they've made it smaller so that it will fit .17HMR.

In my opinion use .22 cal they are more accurate and are devastating to small game.

I like the .22 caliber as it has more power and impact if going for varmints. Can take out racoonsnand similar sized critters.

Personally, I have always used any .20 gram rounds. They shoot hard with this gun and are very accurate. Sometimes .23 are very good too, but more expensive. The .2 will go farther, but the .23 is more accurate. Unless you are shooting a tiny spot on a person from 100 feet away, you should be able to get away with .20.

The product description states it will. I have a SD40VE with the 20 lbs spring and I absolutely recommend it! Made as well as my M&P; 40's stainless guild rod. I picked the higher 20 lbs spring rate and I have had no ejection malfunctions( with .40 s&w;, ranging from 60 to 180 gr ammo). My perceived recoil is better, smoother feeling.

Also the first 6 shots are so will sound like a real 22,(dieseling) so dont shoot in town till its clean. I dont shoot any of my other pellet guns now.You may say 850-900, but thats 22 cal 14.3 not a little 177, if you put a 10 or so 177 in an airhawk it will probably drop to 750-800 with a lot less energy. Once you fire the ruger air magnum its the go to gun and get 22 cal not 177. Yes get the 22 cal, youll be glad you did.

The reason they call it a sweet .17 is because it is for .17 hmr caliber rifles the same as a sweet .22 is for .22LR caliber rifles they have different turrets for different grain/ weight ammo for bullet drop at different yards of shooting. So far the sweet 22 has worked great I think it could be a bit clearer but damn it has some zoom power and a fast focus would have been nice but these scopes are very good in lower dusk light conditions

Is it a magnum or light A5? If it is a light, then since it didn't come with a recoil pad already, it would make the length of pull really long. I would think, though, that if it already has a recoil pad, the contour of the stock should be the same.

.12 grams is lighter therefore it would have more fps (feet per second) and .20 grams is heavier so it has more accuracy so if you are a long range person, get 12 grams but if you are an assault, shotgun, or pistol person, get .20 grams. If you are a sniper/tactical type person or if you have great aim, get around .15 grams if they sell that type

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.

me I used mix 0.2 and .28 but I have to adjust the hop up once I change bbs ... yes the denser it is the hard it hit but I think the fps does not vary much.Lighter bbs used to change direction left or right direction when you fire ... hop up adjustment will not help it ... so if that happens change to heavier bbs and adjust hop up then see the difference yourself , provided your firing while your holding the gun upright... hope I did answer your question and probably some other opinions may come up depends on their experience...thnks

Hi timothy I would use .20 gram with this gun it makes the gun a lot more accurate and the bbs shoot father I hope this helps u and have a nice day

That would depend on exactly what you plan on shooting, I find the 18 -135 a lot more useful. You have the same low end of 18 but the 135 give you a lot more versatility on the high end.

I have run .12 and .20 they both work but .20 is better and shoot straighter
