Unless everything is working properly (mag spring tention, right power ammo, smooth working extractor & poished feed ramps) the more powerful spring just causes problems. TH
Hi Doc:

Yes, the timing of the springs are critical to proper operation.

The Interarms recoil spring you sold me, coupled with an Interarms magazine, now make my 1917 DWM work perfectly, and with modern strength ammo.
