Guys,, are the 155s kinda difficult for you guys to set?
I couldn’t get the 155 because they were out of stock,
So I ordered some 150 and some 110 springs and it’s almost like the spring eyes are too small on the 150( before I added the extra spring) is this a thing or did I just get a bad batch?

That's the way they are. Small spring eyes.
I've heard that they intend to correct the issue, but I don't know if they've done it yet.

They are a pain to set, without a setter that is. I was told the smaller eyes were intentional in order to make the jaws close tighter.

I don't have to set them anymore. Some good ol' boy sent my kids a setter, so now I just sit back, relax, and rest my hands. grin
