Well, the dynamics of chambering a round or just racking the slide is a whole lot different from the high-impulse of firing the gun.  I bet that the former isn't nearly as much work on the spring than the latter.

I just changed the spring on mine, and ordered three more from Rohrbaugh - which I expect will last for years, given how little I actually fire this gun.

I would have to agree with you on that one.  However, it would be interesting  to know how much more stress is put on the recoil spring during actual firing since the slide is still going back the same amount of travel, but it is slamming awful hard.
