Elisio R5 mags

Firstly, I love my R5, so don't jump on me. I only had one worry about the mag spring that pushes the rounds up. It seemed really sloppy on the last round. Stupid me tried stretching the spring a tiny bit. That made the spring kink when compressed. Long story short, I found an alternative spring. I ordered Wilson Combat single stack .45 1911 springs. I shortened the spring and reformed the end. I fired all four mags today in a match and they functioned flawlessly. Just a thought for anyone using R5 mags.
 
They look and feel weak, but I never had a problem. I figured "if it ain't broke."....
What caliber were you feeding?
 
6.5x47 Lapua. Same mags as the 6XC uses. Gary said there'd be no problem feeding them when I ordered the chassis.
