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.

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.

I shoot .22lr 36 grain ammo at mine between 15 and 25 yards out of a Ruger 10/22. It chips the paint, but no noticeable denting. I think a 17hmr will be fine.

I bought the .22 for myself , and gave my 30 yr old .177 to my son. The .22 seems to have more "punch", and penetrating power... but I am comparing it to a 30 year old pistol. The .177 has more muzzle velocity, but the .22 has a heavier projectile(and it does seem easier to load with the larger projectile) You can't go wrong with either. No regrets with my .22 purchase. hope this helps

The fps on .177 is faster than .22. But the .22 hits harder due to its weight. I guess it's a wash. Penetration vs impact. These hit pretty hard in .22, and I would assume it will kill a squirrel or rat with a well placed shot.

.12 will produce the highest fps but greatly reduce accuracy. .20 will give you greater accuracy but less fps

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.

Well it doesn't really matter but I would go with .20, if you need anything else just ask!

Depends on a lot of variables. Your load, caliber and how your want the gun to recoil and cycle.

The .177 version has a higher fps pellet speed , but the .22 version has a higher pellet weight. when you combine the pellet speed and its weight you get what is called ft./lbs The .22 version actually has a higher ft./lb rating over the .177 version. ft./lbs is the force of the pellet when it hits the target. Therefore I would say the .22 version is more powerful.

Well there are no limbs to save with 22s. That said, I'm short and it's perfect for me. I'm not sure about length of pull etc. if you're just looking for longer length of pull, they do make a extended rubber butt pad for the wood stocked Ruger 10/22. The feel/comfort of the Hogue stock is what I like about them.

Though I do not have the Sweet .22 I do have the sweet .17. The simmons is a much lighter and smaller scope. I have the sweet .17 on a ruger .17hmr and the simmons on a benjamin pcp pellet rifle. I like both for what they are set up on. I really like how light and compact the simmons is.

I suggest using 0.20g bbs. They give you the highest fps while also giving the best accuracy.

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.

.22 is slower but hits a lot harder. You will need to fire hundreds of rounds to break in the rifle & temperature has an impact on groupings.i.e. sighting in the rifle @ 80 degrees F will not yield the same group as shooting when it's 40 degrees F.

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
