Joel Park, a seasoned firearms instructor, explains that recoil springs primarily affect the shooter's perception of recoil, not objective performance. Lighter springs can make a firearm feel 'softer' or 'snappier,' while heavier springs can increase perceived recoil. Muzzle bounce is generally attributed to grip and technique rather than spring weight. He also discusses ammunition weight preferences and the importance of recoil springs for reliability over high round counts.
