Had anyone successfully shortened the recoil spring in a Browning Auto 5 in order to get reliable function with very light loads? For the last several years I have been very enamored with 12 gauge 3/4 oz skeet loads. Obviously they work fine in the OU, and they even cycle the 1100 fine. But they're simply too light for my Light 12 A5. I have ordered a new recoil spring, my thought was to clip maybe 1/2 a coil at a time until she cycles.
Anyone ever try this? How did it go?
