Magazine Springs

[Ice Man]

Where can I find top quality replacement springs for my Beretta hi-caps?
Also, does anyone replace them periodically or do you wait until failure??

Life expectancy??

Thanks

I rotate my loaded hi-cap magazines weekly, and replace my springs yearly.

Thank you. That is just what I was looking for.

Rex- I was reading at the site--can you enlighten me about the 5% vice 10% stronger than factory choices. Is the stronger always better, or are there factors I am missing?

When using normal loads in a pistol with a factory or extra power recoil spring, then extra power mag springs are okay. If you are using "softball" loads with a low power recoil spring then the extra power mag springs can cause problems, the top round in the mag pressing against the bottom of the slide will cause excess drag that will result in malfunctions.
