Muzzle energy of a 147 vs 124 is only about 10% less. Are you having problems? Usually, a firearm is designed to be used with any factory ammo load. A lighter recoil spring may end up causing feeding problems (not stiff enough to strip a round from a full mag AND chamber it fully.)

Tight chamber. Had a 9mm (of a different manufacturer) that would not pass plunk test with my reloads. The reloads passed a Dillon Precision 9mm case gauge test, but would not fully chamber. Called mfg, was told that when they ream chamber, they use a factory ammo 9mm round to check, then stop...
