Hi, I recently purchased a 1987 japan made 12 ga magnum,it came with 2 friction rings,1 bronze disc.I've been looking at several manuals some use 3 rings and 2 bronze rings for magnum loads.The way it was told to me 1 ring at end of spring then the bronze ring for light loads,Wondering if Ineed to purchase 1 more bronze ring and 1 more friction ring? If that made sense.Any info would be appreciated Thanx,Gordon

  I need some help setting up the friction rings on an 30's vintage 16 gage A5 with a Weaver compensator and choke tubes. It has a white metal ring about 1/8 inch thick with a bevel, a brass ring with a bevel with a steel spring around it and the main recoil spring. I read information on a site related to the Remington model 11's which indicated that with a Cutts compensator the white metal ring and spring went on first and then the brass friction ring with the bevel toward the muzzle.
  
  It seems to me that was the way I always had it set in the past and it worked fine with factory 7 1/2 or 8 loads I shot a few clays with. How would I set it for heavier hunting loads? For example, a load for turkey.
  
  Thanks, Hlouie
