Made to “extra power” specs without the extra material, these springs are surprisingly lightweight, yet exttremely durable. Gives correct timing and resistance on the recoil stroke and a controlled rebound ensures reliable feeding with consistent forward thrust on every shot. Keeps the bolt locked a little longer to allow pressures more time to subside for perfect cycling.

Disappointed

No question more power in this spring. It is about 5 inches longer than the stock spring. Works with no problems or malfunctions. My only complaint is with the standard A2 stock the sprong sound is much louder and longer in duration than the standard spring. I think this is because of the flat wire opposed to the rounded stock spring. I keep reading the descriptions of other springs that are supposed to eliminate this noise. This does not. I am shooting with a 20x scope so my cheek weld is tight and my ear close to the stock. If I was to do it again I would buy a different brand of spring.
