Default +p spring help.

Hey guys anyone have any experience shooting +p out of the vbobs. I got a great deal on 1000 rounds of ranger t 230gr +p and am looking to up grade recoil springs. Do you think a 20lbs will be to much and will I need to switch back to the stock spring when I switch back to a standard load. If you could provide a link for springs that would be great because apparently I'm a little slow today and can't seem to find any.

I think you're on the right track, but there are far more knowledgeable people than me on this site.

I do know the best springs are available here: Wolff Gunsprings

I use a 20lb spring in my 'other' 1911 that I used to put a lot of +P ammo through. It seemed to work fine for me. I did find one magazine that gave me problems feeding. I had to put a new magazine follower spring in and all was well. All my other magazines worked just fine and I had no other problems.
